CHARACTERISTICS of trssduisantes but ...
My MODEL Submitted QLQ default finishes (biding misplaced bad dpoussierrage before painting on the head, marks on the back of the neck of the handle support tui) not really excusable for high-end guitars plutt.

Note:
. The beautiful black patent nitrocellulose trs trs quickly become your worst enemy if you are a little manic, he scores very easy and supports even worse the blow of
same super soft cloth.
. Finally fittings dor will not stay long in the place where the hand rub (bridge / tailpiece)

A little obsessive I am, so this led me to establish a transparent protective film (food) places to trs frquents by the right hand.

Conclusion 8 / 10

UTILIZATION

The handle is plutt enjoyable, but the Les Paul, not super fast (if you're not an ace) and Access in acute is far from being the good ds 17 I box. Not empty if you're used more modern guitars. Matter of habit and size of fingers, no doubt.
Again the nitro lacquer on the back of the handle will not fit ... sweaty hands tend to slide as it will be difficult on a satin or polished on a handle oil.

The frets are fairly thin and somewhat "catchy" in the bottom of my neck got.
However the intonation is perfect, prcise, always fair.
Holding agreement poses no problem even APRS bends of the two and a half tons.
The trs prcises mcaniques are perfect for tuning. Nothing wrong in this cot l.
The weight is heavy rsonablement saw the pice of mahogany. The quilible pulls a little to the body while sitting.
Key in a agrment bne Submitted to "touchquot; incomparable and remains a must. Trs So good for MODEL.

Overall enjoyable use trs

SOUNDS

The fit is a little subjective, but what about ... if it is it's good, trs good to play with this guitar. We forgive him then all the little default.
The classic 57 that I did not know really work wonders and ensure in all registers.
Unplugged the screening is not standard, but we feel that will do a ...
Clean in all positions are compelling, the sound is dense, trs good balance between the strings (10/52), sustain correct.
In crunch, the instrument Ragit perfectly the nuances of games, his suave trs
Basically overdrive / distortion we will tickle the friend Zakk without difficulty. Even if the orientation is not really mtal, depending on what you put derrire has sent STRID.
I essayedtune D, no problem.
I hung in his siturais prlection Power of the blue mtal not too extreme with adquate amps.
So I set the guitar that sounds richer to my Musicman Luke 2

So sound quality 10/10

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a few months, buy the used computer, I can not resist and I play every day. The sound of reputable Lespaul Gibson is not usurped, as this tmoigne Classic Custom. I do not know if it is better than other models, it has its visual identity and a good Submitted versatilis sound.
J'tais plutt party in the ide of a Standard 60 with a nice table and I think Flamm Saddle Road Classic that offers a low price.

The price has dropped since being placed on the market has therefore remains an excellent deal.
($ 4,300 in the United States Gibson on the site, between 2800 and 3000 his apartment in France in 2007, offers 2,400 today)

Overall opinion 9 / 10
