The Gibson Les Paul guitar is not flashy guitar and certainly not some sort of boutique guitar. Sometimes when they have the quilted or flamed maple tops they can get really gorgeous and exotic looking. But overall these guitars are meant to be played and meant to be used. But not really showroom pieces and collectors items really guitars are meant for the active and professional musicians. If a great time to great feel and overall and extremely versatile guitar.

SOUNDS
I really like the tone of these guitars with high gain amplifier in mind. Preferably I'd choose Marshall amplifier's because it seems to be just a great classic connection between this guitar and those amplifiers. It must be the voicing or just the overall chemistry of the two pieces of gear when they unite together. But they sounds so great together that it's very addicting tone to have on hand. The overall feeling I get when playing a Marshal or a high gain amp with a Les Paul is almost instant gratification. It is so smooth and full of tone that is almost impossible to put down.
OVERALL OPINION
You can find these guitars for right around $1899 in most guitar shops and online retailers. These are very cool guitars for the moment and a much improved step up from eh Studio models of the Gibson Les Paul guitars. I would recommended this guitar o anyone who doesn't need the cool flamed maple tops and still wants a rocking guitar without paying the Custom LP prices.
