Description
What makes this guitar special? This is a great playing Les Paul with a killer aesthetic head to toe. The most notable aspect of this guitar is the gorgeous flame maple top that not only has the classic tiger-striping but also has the reverse effect with a few dark patches where the grain reaches through in the form of subtle highlights. In addition, it is complemented by a full dose of gold hardware from the bridge and tailpiece to the tuning machines. The pickups sound classically Les Paul – big and rich with a brighter bridge and warmer neck. The neck is comfortable and familiar, the action is great, and all in all, for a 15 year old guitar, it is still in great shape.
Condition: This guitar is in very good condition overall. It does possess various nicks, dings, dents, chips, and scratches, but still looks and plays great for a 15 year old guitar.
