I got this for christmas, and it is great. I hooked it up to my little practice amp and wow. IT sounds great on clean, and when you turn distortion on the pickups are not muddy like some other les pauls that I have played. I would suggest putting some different pickups in it because the ones in it are not of the best quality. The pictures do not do the guitar justice, the paint job looks more like a black joe perry boneyard. I also has cream binding.

This guitar is great. It has very well built hardware. I would suggest swapping the bridge pickup for a hotter sound(im going to get a EMG h4).The neck pickup is great for blues and clean tones.The neck is fast and was set up perfect out of the box.

Ver nice action and feel right out of the box. The pickups are a little lacking but i put a Seymour Duncan at the bridge and now it sounds amazing. Its the perfect guitar for me (rhythm). It looks amazing, in some light it does have a hunter green tint, wierd but cool. Overall, the best guitar i could've bought with the money i had.

just recieved this guitar and wow... im so impressed with it. It is a great guitar for anyone that loves the les paul feel and sound. I can express how impressed i am with it. diffently a must have for a giging musician

I have wanted a Les Paul for a while, and I finally got one. When I opened the box, I loved the transparent black flamed maple finish. It looks so much better than in the pictures. It was good quality, except for the nut on the input jack fell off, the knobs were a little bit loose, and there was minor fret buzz, but they were all quick fixes. The pickups sound ok, but have little sustain. I am planning on getting the Dimarzio D Activator DP220 and DP219 pickup set to fix that problem. The guitar feels great to hold. It may feel heavy to some, but I like my guitars to have some wieght to them. One more good thing about this guitar is that it has real grover tuners. This guitar plays nicely and is a good deal. I would recommend this guitar for anyone who likes Les Pauls.
