Traded a new, 4 day old, Gary Moore LP for this at Pro Sound in Colorado Springs. Traded the GM away because it was a quality control nightmare -- accidentally beveled edges on the top, tuners misaligned on headstock and not tightened down, tuners that didn't hold tune, and a volume knob that came off in my hand when I turned it. 'Paid' $1659 in a straight across trade.

Quality control outstanding. No defects in finish or setup. Great acoustic tone -- rings in the cavities unamplified. Sweet neck, takes hours of bending 10 gauge strings and STAYS IN TUNE. Maybe I got lucky. Cherry sunburst is perfect.

Kind of wish the pickguards on Les Pauls came 'on the side' as options (as with the Gary Moore), but then it is a reissue of a 60s design. I like the look without a pickguard, but hate the screw holes. No other complaints, so basically it's perfect and I'm too demanding.

Outstanding construction and quality. No blemishes in sunburst, wood, finish, assembly, etc. It's spotless. Beyond that, the superb acoustic qualities convinced me it was a well-made guitar.

Perfect. ALl I need now are some advanced lessons from Phil Keaggy.
