Classic features of a Les Paul unlike the table not convex and rough finish.

UTILIZATION

I find the handle comfortable, quick access to treble for classic Les Paul. It is heavy, it is normal it is a LP but it is reasonable, I can play 2h standing with back strap and still have its place in the end.
10-52 climb for me, you can send good rock, bends are easy and accurate, it is really enjoyable to play.
Level changes, the rough finish makes it "ages" faster, but it takes a side relic that does not displease me at all. Mine is 2005, and the yellow race begins to whiten the back and on the slice level frets most played, Also on the edge of the table at the friction of the right arm. I think she takes the time stamp.

SOUNDS

So! I found the original sound great but I still decided to upgrade and I went to Seymour Duncan Slash Signature APH2 quite expensive (200 €) but what a joy!! Wow, transforming the guitar, I like playing on a guitar at 2000 €, what sound!
The sustain is endless, the sound is fat hope, even with a large saturation, the notes are parts in clean is more than good, brief no complaints about the sound.
I repeat, the sound was already very good in the original configuration but with microphones Slash, it's very heavy!
I would put the original 8 and 10 + with these microphones.

After changing pickups, it has nothing to envy to me a standard, then of course, you must love without varnish finish that is much more fragile and flat table but for the price secondhand, it's really all good.
