Gibson guitars is one of those companies that is just as iconic as many of the famous artists who have played them. They have successfully built guitars that reach to the highest of platform and have been played by the most famous musicians of all time. Gibson guitars have a girth and mystic that is distinctly Gibson. Most of their guitars feature mahogany wood throughout the body and they just have tone that Fender cannot match, not better or worse but just a different feel and tone all together.

SOUNDS
Gibson did a great job recreating the look of this guitar to match the taste for the classic look of the 60's 70's era Les Paul guitars. This guitar has a great finish on it that the faded look resembles and old worm in guitar.This is great sounding guitar and the modern humbuckers like the alnico magnets and the tuner matic tunings help out with the modern edge to a vintage look.
This guitar will sound absolutely suburb with a Marshall plexi reissue or a Marshall Jcm 800 with a booster pedal out in front of the amp. A Marshall amp and Gibson Les Paul were made for each other. An amp that has a sound like British sound will go quite well with this guitar. There is a chemical bond that unites when those two instruments are pair together. This is one pair not to miss out on.
OVERALL OPINION
At new these guitars come in right at around $799, which is a good intro to the Gibson Les Paul world. This is not a cheap guitar but not the price of a custom Gibson Les Paul and certainly not the price of a VOS Les Paul or a 1959 reissue. Those guitar prices range around $3000-$8000 dependent on the work that is done with it. If you want to upgrade your current guitar or just get a new Gibson Les Paul and don't want to shell out a lot of money then this is the way to go.
