Feature:
It's a 58' Gibson Les Paul with a Custom Shop case, worth every penny!

Quality:
Perfect, right out of the box! The only guitar I own, out of the many, that I can honestly say, absolutely perfect, right out of the box!

Value:
Absolutely!

Desirability:
For me, the "sex appeal" is off the scale! If it had the same wonderful parts that my wife has, I'd boot my wife out (and I think she knows that). The beauty of the guitar is inspiring as well, always a good thing.

Sound:
Amazing! Classic Rock & Blues sound incredible! Paired up with Marshalls and 1960 Vintage cabs, I can't ask for more!

Ease of Use:
Paired up with the right equipment,(any equipment really), hands down, the best guitar I have ever owned in my 40 years of life!

Support:
Have never had any problems with any of my Gibsons, but they have always been helpful when contacted for info.

Overall:
It's with me until death, and even then it's going with me into the ground. It's definitely my number one. Wouldn't part with it for anything except my kids. With me, it's rare to connect with a guitar this quickly, instant love!

Feature:
Volume + Tone control...what more do you need??

Quality:
It's perfect... Looks like it was made in 1958, and then stored perfectly until today...

Value:
I paid $2,600 for mine...can't beat that... I'd certainly pay list price for it... Just remember... It's an investment

Desirability:
It's a 58 les paul?! Holy Grail springs to mind...

Sound:
It is the sound of Rock n' Roll

Ease of Use:
Love the big 50's neck...like a baseball bat at first...then it just fits...

Support:
No need for it

Overall:
It will last forever, sounds incredible, could play it for days at a time... Just perfection...Well done Gibson

Feature:
Features? It's a guitar!

Quality:
What else can I say? Gibson luthiers from the Custom Shop. It's perfect.

Value:
I'm not gonna lie, this guitar will run you about 3K. But you wont want to play any other geetar after this peach.

Desirability:
This guitar is beautiful. When I bought it over a year ago, I would just go hang out in my guitar room and stare at it (kind of like when the new swimsuit calendar comes out). I couldn't love a human baby as much as i love this guitar.

Sound:
Firstly, this guitar will be receiving a ten on everything. I have played many Gibsons on my amp (including my first LP which was hotwired up the great wall), and this one definitely takes the cake. But you better be plugging into a Marshall! The sound is unreal. Don't be a sissy, turn everything on your amp up to 11 and listen to what this geetar has to say.

Ease of Use:
This guitar plays itself. The fingerboard is just like butta. Since I play overdriven, fast & sloppy I had to adjust the action a little. Tell you what tho, thick neck and HEAVY! This is a man's guitar. Feels like you're playing something. If you want a light guitar... play a Fender, you crybabies!

Overall:
I would definitely try to buy this in a store rather than order it online... For obvious reasons. When you bring this guitar home, your old lady will grow to be jealous of all the time you are going to be spending with your "new girlfriend", ha!

Feature:
Tone and volume, two good pickups, simple but effective

Quality:
No quality/finish issues

Value:
It sounds awesome, but it's a bit pricy, which is why this isn't a "10"

Desirability:
Just look at it

Sound:
Love the tone, thinking about trying some different pickups, but the stock Burstbuckers sound great on their own. Able to get a huge variety of tones with this guitar.

Ease of Use:
Easy guitar to play. The thick neck really seems to allow me to get comfortable and play a long time.

Support:
Was nice to talk to real person when I called customer support. I had no issues with the guitar, just questions about the warranty and they were quite helpful

Overall:
This guitar is a lifer for me. I'll never sell it.

Sound:
Ugh. What a dizaster. It looks like was raized from the titanic. The nut was totally offcenter. The pickgaurd screw was striped and came out. The jack plate was cracked and the binding was terribly marred from scraping.

Support:
Gibson guy told me "it is what it is and if not like it send it back"
