Description
A superb sounding Les Paul Recording with an ultra cool, true vintage vibe. Designed with the studio in mind, the Les Paul Recording houses a myriad of tonal possibilities, including phase switching & hi-lo output selection. The low impedance pickups deliver some very interesting tones along with the help of bass, treble, decade & volume controls. 3-way pickup & tone selection options round out the package just at Les had wanted it. Fully inspected & set up with fresh strings & low action, so it plays & sounds marvelous.
