Gibson 1960 Les Paul VOS Customer Review

Feature:
the case needs to be bigger

Quality:
mirror Finnish everything is tight solid guitar

Value:
this guitar is worth every penny I no longer need to be looking for the perfect Les Paul I just bought what I've been looking for all these years. If the retailer start lowering the price on this guitar it will be disappointing because it is worth what I paid for it

Desirability:
It is an American classic other companies have tried to copy this but they have not come close to the original when Gibson put their name on this classic they made a statement Gibson there is no substitute. I love my stats to but this bad boy is amazing

Sound:
I have three Paul's 56 gold top, a standard les paul and this new reissued 1960 les paul. this is a great great guitar I love the way it plays, the sound is amazing I didn't think there would be that much of a difference but there really is you put this les paul in front of a tube amp and will make the tubes sing. It has a feeling of confidence , very responsive to all the different styles. In the studio it will make your lead sit right on top huge sound

Ease of Use:
I have had this guitar for 4 months now and I am falling in love with this guitars everyday the tone is magnificent this guitar will stand up to any guitar I own

Support:
Don't know I have never had to deal with them ever. They build great guitars

Overall:
It is simply the best Les Paul you can buy for the money. every guitar is different but I must say that if it was stolen I would be very sad . I would immediately go out and try to find a 1960 re issue to replace it. When I bought this guitar I had no idea how nice it really was going to be my hat is off to the boys and girls at Gibson what a winner.

About This Product!
Description
News
In 1960 the Les Paul Standard still had the flame maple top, sunburst finish, and "Patent Applied For" pickups of its predecessors, but a slim taper neck was added for a decidedly different feel. These final adjustments failed to save the Standard, however, and after 1960 the single cutaway Les Paul was replaced by the thin bodied, double cutaway SG.
