UTILIZATION

The handle is of type 50: This is not the end (60), but the one that best matches the spirit of Les Paul. Those who conneissent the Les Paul will not depayss. Key superb Ebne, magic touch.
Access in acute is that of a Les Paul: The hand must adapt.
The weight seems more lightweight than some Les Paul, but remains a Gibsonian weight (with the Reward nooooorme sustain the match.
The intrt of this model is that Gibson tried (and they got there) to propose a guitar prcustomise (all options). The list is well thought out:
. Graph Tech nut
. Features of Push-Pull Tone of potentiomtres (split mics)
. Neutrik locking jack between
. Bridge Tun-o-Matic Stop Bar tailpiece + block
. Mcaniques Grover locking
. Jim Dunlop Strap-lock provided
Your exact is the: The sound and sustain are the appointment. I should say the sounds. The split of Alnico (490R + 498T Smoky Coil) is used to broaden the range of Manir thunder for a Gibson. You have in your hands the equivalent of a ringtone maker (single coils), a les paul GEM (P90) and a Les Paul Standart (Humbucking).
3 guitars for the price of one!
You add a good amount of sustain with the nut GraphTech, an ounce of stability with the mca grover locking and all bridge / tailpiece block, a sense of security with the rel-lock straps between blocking and jack, you connect (if possible in an amp lamps), you close your eyes, and you let go ... Jazz, blues, funky (especially with the split), Rock, Nu, ....
Want Gibson not having thought more tt.
The sound is l. To navigate the jungle of microphones on offer by Gibson, say that the 490R is a 57 with a bit more high mdium, and 498T (Hot Alnico) dmnage demand in mdiums and treble. All makes forays into every style.

SOUNDS

The GT is perfect my (my) style (s) of music, and allows me to broaden the field. I play mainly on the amp lights, and I tried on a small H & Keltner transistors. In any case, it sounds!
Trs prt approach, the sounds and the twang of a Start, playing on a Les Paul is thundering. especially important with the sustain of the guitar.
S'opre split push-pull knobs on the Tone.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 6 months. No regret, on the contrary. The sound possibilities are endless. The only thing that Gibson would have thought, is the establishment of a greater range of colors. Besides The series limit (guitar of the week), exit a few weeks ago, offers the same quality and impressive look DIFFERENT! A GT GT against another? Yeah! when there is taste ...
