I couldn't be happier

This is a great guitar, I love it. The finish is beautiful, and the tone is perfect. It was exactly what I would expect from Gibson. I never owned or even played,a Gibson prior to this one, but now I'm a huge fan. It is a little heavy, but I knew Les Pauls were, so I will just buy a thicker strap. The guitar came on time, and packaged perfect. Musicians Friend contacted me on my preferences of intonation and such, right out of the box played beautiful, no adjustments needed. If I had more money, I would buy another today. I am completely satisfied with my purchase, I couldn't be happier

Will never ever part with...

Just a short review here. I have had my 82 Les Paul Custom Silverburst since Christmas 1982. I will never forget that day. I was 13 at the time and my dad had promised me he would upgrade my guitar (CHEAP CHEAP Harmony's) if I stuck with it and kept taking lessons. Well he came through in a big way. I know how much he sacrificed to get me that instrument and I'll never forget it. Sentimental thoughts aside... I have not ever played another guitar that feels or sounds as good as this one. Mine has aged well and although has bronzing in the whites, still looks and sounds incredible. Recently purchased a Mesa Lone Star Special and finally I feel like I have an amp that lives up to the guitar.

Not sure about these reissues, but I will be passing my 82 down to my son or daughter someday and hope they will do the same. I am a very proud and humbled owner of this incredible instrument.

Dream Guitar

I have always wanted a Les Paul Custom, but never had the coin to buy one. I currently own, or have owned several Epiphones, a Mexi-Strat and 2 Gibsons: a Standard SG and a Gothic Explorer. Without question, this Silverburst Les Paul Custom is now my favorite. The action as silky-smooth and the tone, even unplugged, is rich and deep. Even the Silverburst finish seems to have "depth". Every time I take it out of the case, it reminds me of a silver Rolls Royce I saw in Vegas last year. Bottom line, as always, You Get What You Pay For. Yes, it's expensive, but true quality has a price tag and these guitars tend to hold their value (or appreciate).

I Love This AXE!!!

I own a few guitars and had always wanted the Silverburst to add to my collection. When I found out that Gibson had made a limited run in 2007(they made less than 100) I was all over the internet trying to find a reputable dealer who could hook me up. I own several LP's from studios to Customs. This Silverburst by far is the best sounding guitar and the action/feel is amazing! I love the quality of this instrument not that I expected anything less from Gibson. They are a little pricey but worth the investment if you're serious about getting a serious guitar. I'd buy another one if the wife wouldn't kill me for it...

Flawless, Great Tone, Heavy as hell. Immediately went to my top choice when grabbing a guitar to play. If I could afford another one, I would buy one in a heartbeat
