Gibson Les Paul Standard Faded Electric Guitar with 50s Neck (with Case)

Feature:
Love the case of course, especialy with the combination lock. My only litte thing with this guitar is I hate those tuning keys. Would look so much better with chrome Grover tuners!

Quality:
All I can say is "MADE IN THE USA".

Value:
You get what you pay for. All I am saying is if you have the money BUY IT. A $500 guitar is going to sound like a $500 guitar. So if you want a great sound, spend the money. Plus look at it this way, the value of these work of arts wont ever go down. THIS WOULD BE A GREAT INVESTMENT.

Sound:
Tone is amazing!!!!! I play tons of rock from G n R to Mudvanye, and this guitar spits it out. Definately has that Slash sound.

Ease of Use:
Love the neck first off. I sand down all my necks to begin with. Nothing like the silky smooth feel of that bare wood. So with that being said, this guitar doesnt have all that laquer. Has a very nice satin finish.

Overall:
This guitar will last you a lifetime. Something to cherish and hand down to your kids. Again, this is an investment. 20 years down the road, it could be worth twice as much or more! But overall, exceptional quality! Made in the USA! SOLID!!!!!

Feature:
This is built the same way a LP standard is with a few differences, the first being the finish. The rubbed finish gives it a nice look like that of a real '50s LP, and the satin gloss stifles the wood less, giving it more sustain. The only other difference is that the pickups are open-coil on this guitar, which is really a matter of preference. Some say that they are more responsive this way. You'll have to hear for yourself.

Quality:
Top notch Gibson USA quality. Enough said.

Value:
This is the cheapest standard model Gibson offers. It offers all the features of more expensive models, possibly more, and half the price tag. A definite steal.

Desirability:
It isn't as flashy as other guitars with bright colors or shiny finishes, but it has its upsides. Take a look at Slash's first LP and you will find that the Honeyburst model (the one I got) is nearly identical to it. Very sexy.

Sound:
Classic Les Paul sound. Burstbucker Pro pickups give it a nice, vintage feel, but with more oomph! Notes are very clear and defined, dirty or clean. It also sounds a bit brighter (not thinnner) than other LPs I have played. Perfect!

Ease of Use:
Plays like a dream. It is heavy, like all LPs, and the neck profile is chunky, but not uncomfortable unless you have really small hands.

Overall:
I saved up for years to get a Les Paul, and I am very happy with my choice. It has all the bells and whistles of a guitar with twice the price tag. Check this baby out!
