Yeah I know, another LP :) I'm weak, what can I say...So I started off my day with a trip to the post office and then a straight-line towards Guitslinger's kitchen for the big opening.

Came with what is by far the best gigbag that I've had yet, soft leather handle and bindings with lots of padding. One of the first things that jumped out at me was the absolute perfect job done on the inlays! The neck is relatively thick but not the baseball bat, which is just fine by me. I do have it plugged in to my Marshall Haze 40w now and it packs a punch that's for sure! Top notch quality and craftmanship all the way on this one.

Weight: 9lbs

I had trouble getting the true colour of the guitar to come through on my pictures. The colours are brighter on these pictures...gotta work on that someday

I'd have been afraid of getting the cat urine-amonia smell on it. :lol:

I can vouch for what Blinkers has said about this guitar-the build quality is top shelf to say the least and definitely above Gibson's current standards.The neck is a good bit chunkier than my Les Paul but not so much to be uncomfortable.The only thing was that I couldn't give it a good workout because it had 10-46s on it and that's quite a jump from the 8-38s that I'm used to.She sounds sweet though whether clean or overdriven and that was just through my little Traynor 15W TS-15 S/S amp.He also got a nice Burny come today but when he opened up this one the Burny took 2nd place.
