Gibson Les Paul Standard Traditional Plus Electric Guitar

Bit of a one trick pony - maybe 2 tricks - but boy its does them better than anything else around. Its a great rock lead instrument and also clean blues/jazz, but for jangly indy-rock stuff you want to stick with something else (my Rickenbacker is my choice). If you can only get one guitar - get a strat - but if you can afford a few get one of these as few guitars will rock out like this instrument.

Pickup selector switch came a little loose in first couple days - easy fix tho - other than its immaculate.

I am not going to comment - this is so personal - an amazing instrument, but not cheap. Its value is in the eye of the beholder/ear of the player (my epiphone wilshire would get top marks in this category tho )

Beautiful object that I feel fortunate 30 years of playing allows me to actually use to create great sounds (it was worth all that practice/playing!)

Neck is not that thick.  I have really small hands and usually like jackson necks and LP 60 necks.  Like a review I red before, playing thinner necks would cause pain in this dudes arm and wrist,,,,, me too!!! I have had surgery on my nerves in my elbow,,, this guitars neck does not cause me pain like the thinner ones...

On the other note... it is not light either...but, who wants a light Les Paul, personnally I would like solid with no holes...

Nice guitar!!!

So many years I dreamed of having a Les Paul Standard with rock-solid heavy sustaining sound, 50's neck with tulip keystone tuner, a weight and sustain feature that you'll only see on a les paul historic and traditional customs with an added triple A flame, and the color that I really like.

Incredible. Been playing it for a while now and I really love this guitar. I currently own a triple pickup historic custom and it feels and sustains like there is no tomorrow. Funny thing is my hand is not all that big but I the shaping of the neck fits my hand like a glove and I can do a bunch of techniques that I can clearly hear more notes than other guitars I used. I will probably stick with the regular .009 that the factory loaded originally. After all gibson recommended it and they have been in business for along time.

There are some money involve here but if you want the best then your looking at it. And its worth every penny.

I a span of 1 year, I bought a robbie krieger sg, godin limited edition triple flame multiac and this guitar. Musicians Friend took care of this as far as their free shipping with the quality or the service and the product, I am very happy and very contented with their service. They have been in business for a while too. All american.

Great set up from the factory!  The tone you would expect! A joy to play.  The strings are so sensitive.  Just touching them they resonate.  Sustain for days.

It had a small scuff on the upper bout but it was buffed out for me.  I am sure it was just an accident from the factory.

I got a lot of money knocked off this guitar.  I couldn't have afforded it otherwise.

If you think you would like one, buy it.  You won't be dissapointed.  Gibson is the best in my opinion.  Don't believe the hype that Epiphone can even compare.

The figured top is amazing. I could stare at it for hours. The pickups are the best sounding I've heard.

The guitar is expensive, but it has all the features you would find in a custom shop guitar.

It's perfect. It had everything I wanted. 57 pickups, figuterd top, kluson tuners, and a 50's neck. One of the nicest guitars I've ever palyed and the best sounding.
