Absolutely amazing classic Gibson Les Paul sound. Solid piece of wood, no weight relief crap. Sustain will last for days. I have average size hands, no long bony fingers and was a little worried about the neck but now that I've played it there is no going back. So much easier to play. I have several Gibson and Epiphone Les Pauls. My number 1 is a black Gibson Les Paul Traditional with no weight relief and Gibson 57 classic humbuckers. I am now thinking I have a new number 1 with this 59 standard. Such a great guitar that plays right out of the box.
