Let’s be honest, some of these reviews I read make me wonder if someone was paid to write them. This one. An honest review, no one asked me to write. I’ve been playing for about 22 years and own several other American made guitars, including an SG. For some reason I can not fathom, I’ve always thought the Les Paul was not for me and wow let me just tell you I firmly stand corrected. I actually prefer a satin finish to a gloss finish so this beauty is perfect for me. I love my SG but never realized how unbalanced it is until now. This thing rests beautifully in a strap in a perfect neutral balance, plugged in on my lap is a bit different as the thigh cut is further forward on the guitar, but not a problem at all, just different than anything I’ve ever owned. I love the punch of these pick ups. The action out of the box was absolutely perfect. Fast neck. Beautiful aesthetics. The guitar comes with a picture of itself on the work bench during check off which really gives it a personal feel, letting you know, time was spent crafting your new favorite guitar. This is solely my opinion but, I would rather own a lesser expensive American made guitar over a high end foreign guitar hands down. It’s absolutely worth the extra $$ if you’re trying to decide. Also the “soft” case is way sturdier than I ever imagined it being also extremely good looking. I’m extremely excited to have this guitar.
