The Gibson Limited Edition Les Paul Studio Gothic is back! Tweaked from this incarnation is the meanest yet. Featuring a Mahogany body and carved Maple top, a set Mahogany neck and a super-slick Richlite fingerboard and a slippy black GraphTech nut. Fitted with Grover tuners, the black nickel hardware really sets off the look. The electronics comprise a pair of the legendary Dirty Fingers pickups -- these are accurate replicas of the famous super-hot humbucker introduced by Gibson in the 1970s. Appropriately named, the Gibson "Dirty Fingers" pickup is manufactured with three powerful ceramic magnets to produce massive output for in-your-face output without compromising the original tone of the guitar in any way. The pickups' overwound yet balanced coils also feature adjustable pole pieces, which allows you to fine tune the output of each individual string.

Purchased one of the "open box" Gothics here and saved a couple bucks. The guitar arrived looking brand new...zZounds is great. The frets are very well done and the guitar looks and feels top notch. The not so great things were that the neck pickup was cutting out...likely just the 3 way switch...the nut seems to be cut really low...so the strings are barely missing/ or hitting that first fret when fretting down the neck....and the pickups are actually Dirty Finger PLUS pickups...they are not "Dirty Fingers" as described. The sound was a bit bright and the pickups kept feeding back with higher gain settings...really don't like these DF Plus pickups...I wanted the Dirty Fingers : ( Overall the sound lacked depth and acoustically the guitar was not very pleasant. No doubt each one of these guitars will be different and I would not hesitate to purchase another one...would be better to check it out in person though. zZounds fixed me up, so we're good. Will be back!
