Feature:
I'm not an expert on the "plek'd" factory setup with the frets, but all I can say is you will never encounter unwanted buzzing from this guitar.

Quality:
Absolutely beautiful guitar with quality craftsmanship. What you would expect for a $2300 guitar.

Value:
Go to your local guitar shop. Play the "Traditional" first before all the others and I guarantee you will find yourself coming back to this one in the end.

Sound:
I play this guitar 2 to 3 hours daily for a reason. Can't put it down. Tone, clarity, and playability with endless sustain. Played through an MG100dfx.

Ease of Use:
Standard LP range of sound, regardless of settings.

Support:
Owned for over a year now and have never needed it.

Overall:
Always wanted a Les Paul. Waited over 20 years before dropping the cash. Wish this guitar and my money would have been available when I first started playing. For all the other guitars I have purchased and played, nothing even comes close to comparison. Buy it, you will be completely satisfied with your decision.

Feature:
It's a throwback Les Paul. You get what you pay for. The AA top on my Honeyburst is incredible. I've seen AAA tops that didn't look this good.

Quality:
Apart from the pot change, It's a Les Paul. Quality is its middle name. And granted, most folks won't care about the 300K pots, but try chaging to 500K. You'll be amazed at how much versatility it adds. I bought a "blemished" piece (zzounds) and I couldn't find a blemish anywhere. Saved a few hun though... very happy!

Value:
Again, you get what you pay for. Premium quality.

Desirability:
Loves you long time... like a good woman. Actually, better than a good woman. This one only talks when you want it to! lol

Sound:
I knocked one off because of the lightswitch volume... either on or off and not much in between. Replaced the 300K pots with 500Ks and I got my subtleness of the reissues. The 57's sound very bright and the 500k gives them the warmth with a little rollback if needed. Overall, it's a Les Paul... nuff said.

Ease of Use:
The neck is sweet. Love it. Had to set it up to my liking and the intonation was an easy fix. Lowered the action just a hair with no probs either. Plays like a Les Paul should.

Support:
never needed it... ever... in 30 years of playing LPs. 15 of those years beating the crap out of them onstage.

Overall:
I bought this model because I loved the 80s LPs. I must admit to being absolutely spoiled by my reissues, but this guitar is right up there. If I was still a road warrior, these would be the ones I'd take out.

Feature:
Nothing extra, but with a guitar like this guitar you really only need an amp anyway.

Quality:
You get what you pay for, and in this case that's a good thing. It should hold it's value for a long time.

Value:
It's worth every penny. It costs $2300 for a reason!

Desirability:
I got mine in Heritage Cherry Sunburst, and it's beautiful.

Sound:
Amazing sound! Plugged in or unplugged, the tone is incredible! It's definitely worth not having the weight relieved.

Ease of Use:
It feels great to play. Some people don't like the thick neck, but I prefer it. It's also a little heavy, but hey, it's a Les Paul! That's how it gets it's great tone.

Support:
I haven't needed it, but i'm sure it would be fine.

Overall:
Amazing.
