Description
What’s special about this guitar: It has a fantastic combination of sonic quality, aesthetic and playability. The richly figured rosewood fingerboard nicely compliments the black appointments and sparkling Heritage Cherry Sunburst Candy finish. We had our techs set this gorgeous guitar up with nice low action, providing players with effortless movement up and down the neck, perfect for holding down the rhythm or soaring with leads. Without all the binding and other deluxe appointments, this guitar gets straight to the point with sound and unstated style with no compromise. If you don’t need all the extras but want a good looking guitar with true Les Paul flavor at an even better looking price, we suggest you take advantage before it goes home with someone else.
Condition: This guitar is in overall excellent condition. It does have various light surface scratches but is still very clean all in all. There is very minimal fret wear and the fingerboard is in great shape. The neck is straight and the truss rod functions perfectly as it should.
Body: Modern weight-relieved mahogany body w/ maple top in Heritage Cherry Sunburst Candy. Equipped with a chrome Tune-O-Matic bridge and chrome stop bar tailpiece. Black supreme grip speed knobs. Black pickguard, trim rings, and toggle switch plate.

Pickups/Electronics: ’57 Classic (Alnico #2) in the neck and BB Pro (Alnico #5) in the bridge. Two coil-split push/pull volume controls, two tone controls and 3-way switchcraft toggle switch with cream tip. Orange Drop capacitors.

Playability/Sound: Exceptional playability. SlimTaper is super fast and comfortable up and down the neck. The low action our techs have set it up with make it a breeze to play. Pickups have a nice, moderate output for great warm cleans with the ability to open up to tone-rich leads.
