Description
What makes this guitar special? This Les Paul comes with a nice top, killer finish, and excellent playability all around. The most noticeable aspect is the flame maple top which sports incredibly even flaming under its Manhattan Midnight finish. Complemented by its baked maple fingerboard, cream binding, and gold knobs, it ends up having a bit of a regal look to it. The pickup in the neck outputs a ton of classic humbucker chunk and the bridge adds in the quintessential crispy bite, perfect for cutting through the mix. The neck should be familiar and comfortable to a ton of players, as it is common to not only many Gibsons, but similar to many other standard and popular brands. The action is great, the tone is even better, and the overall look will add a bit of character to any player’s roster.
