"OHMYGAWD"

Feature:
it came with a great case it fits like a glove, the finish is stunning (firebrust)active tone controls, or at least coil split would have been cool, but the 57's are hot. i didn't think i would be able to tell a differance between the front and back but they deffinitly sound different

Quality:
its a gibson!! however there was one small issuie with the "A" string nut being alittle low and buzzing, but easily fixed with a piece of matchbook (old trick)

Value:
its worth twice the price if you love great guitars, i can't believe i now own such a great guitar one that looks, sounds, plays like a custom shop without the custom shop price

Desirability:
i'm still drolling, this is truly a bueatiful piece of craftmanship

Sound:
to me it sounds better than a les paul, and if you like to rock this is your axe. really brings out the life in my marshall.

Ease of Use:
its a high end guitar plays like a million bucks

Support:
i didn't buy from a dealer so i got no warrinty, but my friends say i'll never need it

Overall:
i will keep this untill the day i die, think soulmate!

Gibson limits the number of stores that carry Gibson guitar.You shouldn't have to mail it somewhere for maintinance.Gibson has gotten to big for their britches.
