Published on 10/11/11 at 10:41I absolutely love the Gibson Les Paul guitar. It has such a great feeling a great time that is just extremely appealing. Unlike the Fender guitars this one can get really thick and warm sounding. The Fender guitars are amazing guitars well but the primary stick to the mid range tones primarily because of the woods that are involved in the process of doing this guitars. Since this guitar has mahogany wood for the body and the neck he gives it is very sick and warm time.

SOUNDS
I absolutely love the tone of these guitars when you use him in a good medium gain to high gain metal type settings. They excel very well when you get a lot of distortion coming overdrive pedal or distortion pedal or the amplifiers own preamp or power amp tubes. When you get a lot of thick saturation and distortion this guitar really sits well with that style. If you use in Marshall amplifier or Mesa boogie amplifier than this guitar is the next very well with the voicings of those amplifiers. Especially the Marshall amplifier because you're some type of chemistry that happens with that amplifier in this guitar. This is extremely versatile guitar but it doesn't really do that well cleaned settings.
OVERALL OPINION
I recommend this guitar to anyone is looking for extremely versatile guitar and it's going be a good recording guitar and a very good gigging guitar. You can find them very easily online and pretty much any guitar retailer in the world. These are fantastic instruments and if you can afford one and either recommend picking one up. For the money it doesn't really get much better than the Gibson Les Paul guitar. At new they come in right around $6000, so these are pretty expensive.
