Type Les Paul Guitar, Model Series LTD Deluxe is the top-end LTD
The guitar is Mahogany set neck like his 24 cases
The weight is lower compared to a Gibson LP
She has two EMG81 sounding superbly on this violin really top
It has great mechanical Sperzel United States effective!
The bridge is a good type of Tone-o-matic ... as an LP which
UTILIZATION
Great handle, less "highway" that my Ibanez, and it is not so bad, but not a log at a gibson, the best round I've tried!
Access to acute is quite convenient to the 22 boxes after that is another story, but essentially has the shape of the guitar.
It has a weight quite resonance
And quality of the pickups (EMG) and making make it sound on any amp without seeking more ... 2 seconds!
I put 9 for access to the last boxes ...
SOUNDS
I play mainly Metal "extreme" (Doom / Death / Black / Trash), but also of Rock 70 '80', the guitar is great in the micro acute disto! I rediscovered the EMG, since I have one on my Ibanez and rendering with this violin is totally scratch than to see the top!
I play with a Vamp Pro, connected directly to a sound system, hard ca Vamp and restores all the good violin and the guitar pickups!
As for sounds, sounds crystal clear is not easy to obtain (or impossible) then I have failed but that's not what I want, for position against the sleeve or two microphones at the same time, we can have great crunch!
In the bridge position, so good, it's great, big cut of the big rock or metal! that's good! EMG is magic! It sounds everywhere all the time
Despite the clean sounds that can not be crystalline, the guitar is polivalente!
One point for it to be even more, a EMG89 (or 85 in the limit) but it's too much to ask for money!!
I put 10

Now that I play on my Tubeman and my pedal board (I abondonné digital!) Is really good, the big big sound, the EMGs are not really cold microphones, they are accurate and effective and even a 81 round in a warm ...
Superb scratch I would have long ...
OVERALL OPINION
I for a week, I bought it after spending 2 years on my Ibanez GRX-170 mounted with an easel in EMG81! and it is night and day (although I like the Ibanez becomes my second guitar)
It is perfect both in instrument making and electronics that perfectly matches my expectations. In fact, I wanted a Les Paul because I'm a fan of this form, I first thought was a Gibson LP Studio or a skyscraper as a luthier. I tried several Studio, but I loved these guitars by comparing the LTD is that it is better (violin and electronics) ...
In addition I have in Black, giving it an air of LP Black Beauty! Sublime
The finish is great!
The value for money is unbeatable, I've had mine for € 1000 which is the price of this opportunity to grate on this site! (But the boss is a friend of the mag so a 20% reduc.!)
It will fade a lot of Gibson, even if it does not please the fan of the brand
In any case, I was quite retissant to LTD, I can only regret the prejudice of these guitars ...
I would do without hesitation, this choice for three reasons:
- Manche perfect (according to my tastes of course)
- Lutherie and flawless finish
- Perfect Electronics (EMG is still the best microphones in the world, according to my tastes)
