I was a little worried about how I would like the way this guitar played, since I had already owned an ES Les Paul, and didn’t like the way it felt under my fingers. But I really like this guitar! It’s very touch sensitive, I do need to ease off on my attack a bit, but it sounds absolutely wonderful. It’s not quite as loud unplugged as my 330, but still plenty loud enough to enjoy unplugged. The mini hum buckers sound clean and crisp with no muddyness. Fantastic wood grain, and really light and comfortable to play. I’d like to try the P90 version if I ever get the chance. My only problem was the tuners, it came with the vintage kluson tuners, they look great but I replaced them with a set of locking tuners that are working much better.
