Gibson Les Paul Supreme Customer Review

Feature:
The chambered body helps reduce weight - resulting balance is just right - and the maple cap on the rear makes the guitar even more comfortable to use.

Quality:
Mine was a year old when I bought it but in almost mint condition. Everything where it should be and of excellent quality - almost seems like a custom shop model.

Value:
Although expensive it is comparable to other equivalent spec guitars

Desirability:
Although most people prefer the translucent finishes Ebony was the only choice for me.

Sound:
All the tones I will ever need. I find the 490R/498T combination almost perfect for my playing style.

Ease of Use:
How easy can a guitar get to play - better than anything else I've ever played (and thats a lot of guitars over a very long time!)

Support:
Not had any dealings with Gibson so can't really say.

Overall:
This is a stunning guitar with great looks, killer tone, great playability and some unique features (like the chambered body and no back plates). I was planning to get a LP Custom but when I compared it with the Supreme there wasn't really any choice, especially as prices (in the UK) are now about the same for both models.

Quality:
Quality is excellent.I do use it on the road.Never worry about anything.It always sounds great.

Value:
Yes!

Desirability:
Beautifuly made guitar.And practical addition to my set-up.

Sound:
I use a Mesa Boogie,Mark1 I bought in 1972.With the gibson supreme. It screams on solo's.Fat chunky but clean sound for rythms.

Support:
Never dealt with the company.Never had a problem!

Overall:
If this guitar were lost or stolen,I would definitely replace it with with the same model.
