Dark Tobacco Burst, Nickel Hardware, Back Dark Tobacco Burst, Nickel Hardware, Close Angle

Radically changed since Slash's original signature model in the late '90s, this Les Paul Electric Guitar focuses on utility over beauty (though it retains the latter in spades. In addition to aged hardware, this LP has the Custom Authentic finish, a special treatment that gives it the patina of a gently-aged vintage guitar. 2 Seymour Duncan Alnico Pro II humbuckers provide a rip-roaring tone. The Fishman Powerbridge adds huge potential for tonal enhancement and sparkling rhythm parts. Slash custom profile neck for unbelievable speed and comfort.

Gibson's Custom Shop produces some of the finest electric guitars on earth. Using the best materials money can buy, a staff of skilled luthiers reproduce some of the greatest Gibsons of the past and create stunning new instruments for players and collectors who demand the best.

Nice LP

I've owned this LP for quite awhile, and I must say it is one of my favoites. It fits like a glove and plays itself. I never trust those who say "do not buy this guitar". Why? I have no problems at all making this guitar sing. The quality is superb, and the tone is outstanding. I, for one, love plaintops, so when someone says the looks are not there, I don't get it. Plaintops are hot. If you are all about the looks, go get a flametop, stick it in a display case and hang it on your wall. I mean thats what posers do, right? I'm a musician, and this is built to play. A working mans guitar. A little high on the price, but worth it. Easily holds it's own against my Historics. Nice. Thanks Gibson & of course, Slash.

I tried this out at a local music store, let me say I was EXTREMELY let down. The features are all there, but I just couldn't play right on this guitar, and it sounded like crap! I tell you, DO NOT BUY THIS. I tried the cheapest Epiphone les paul after, and it played better than this.

Great Guitar

This guitar is not your run of the mill Les Paul. Myself and many others love the tobacco sunburst finish. Yes it's not the most exotic top, but it exemplifies classic style with modern edge in a package that is neither too "goddy" or "glammy." I believe as well that teh price is a bit much for this baby. I do enjoy the tonal diversity that comes from this guitar. I get just about any type of sound I want from mine. I play metal, rock ,jazz, blues. A great axe for all types.

This guitar is pretty good from what I have seen and heard. But it has the quality of any other les paul. From what I know Slash plays a standard and other models but not this as much. In my personal opinion get a standard if you really want to be like slash. They have the same quality and action. As said you are paying for the name. If you want a les paul I recomment the classic custom or the epiphone les paul ultra II.
