Gibson made in United States Supreme ebony nashville
22 boxes, the good old classic of modern micro gibson ie in the 498T bridge and neck position, the 490R
Fixed bridge, tune o matic.
Channel 50's rounded type

UTILIZATION

The handle: rounded 50's is very nice. At the beginning when it was not used because it is destabilizing a handle big enough and after a few minutes wow! in fact it is great it is fast enough (I play metal rather violent and technical), proof watch a video of Mr Zack Wylde ...
Quality has a lot to handle ... Indeed, a patent "less sticky" than a gibson std and a touch lala a friend! an ebony fingerboard with a smooth (touch) amazing!
The frets are very nice, it goes all alone, not addicted ...
Those who know will know that the Gibson Les Paul saw the point of access to acute and ben is not very easy but it gets there ...
It is a very well balanced scratches as well when playing sitting and standing.
The weight and ben y'en that says it's heavy and a LP ben I not tell you more than anything else ... no seriously we see that it's solid, it's not a skyscraper in plastoc! good but the weight is not excessive and is very tolerable. Personally I do not suffer at all ...

SOUND! ahhhhhhhhhhh is a killer! is not a supreme for nothing! you plug you play it as simple as that and the worst is that it sends live!

SOUNDS

For me I could not find a better scratch! damn she is just amazing! clean the lens well (yes I assure you even for an LP) has the distortion of ill sends it's delirium! every time I play I will not believe my ears!
I said her name is not supreme for nothing!
To tell you ... already the custom mailings serious but it's not clear c but the supreme ecstasy is the level above. If so I assure you, I have compared since before I had a custom ...
Well I not play on the amp rotten I agree ... I play solo mesa pfffffffff correct and you plug it sounds ... not need to look ten years! I have a friend who plays on an ESP with EMG and all that goes with Ben and my friends ... Means the difference ... The Supreme puts him a good slap has ESP! my buddy does it have still not recovered!
She can do anything from blues to death. So all sonnorités suit me!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 2 months
What I like least ... pfffffff nothing! is an exceptional guitar.
If the patent can be a little grip handle that but hey it's really not a problem ...
I love its versatility and sound! what sound!
My opinion is high praise I know but I tried many guitars before, and of all, ESP Eclipse ESP viper, Gibson LP Standard 2002 60's (which I very well but the level below) Gibson LP Custom, Lag Roxanne Floyd, XTSA Godin, PRS custom 22, therefore, very good guitars have their strengths and weaknesses, but not at the LP Supreme. I was blown away when I heard and when I played.
The value for money is still not terrible! it is super expensive especially in France! it is a shame! Of course you pay the brand but still!
I was forced by my wallet and my common sense (yes there's no strong cash cow!) To buy it abroad (Netherlands) to 1,100 euros less than in FRANCE!

With the experience I remake that choice even if I have to eat my legs for several ... and I hesitate to sell my other guitars to buy me another in order to bring in another tuning.
Frankly I am super fan of this guitar ... I love it!
