The Burstbucker and maple body combo really make this guitar stand out from all of my other Gibsons. Absolute joy to play, and lighter than most Les Pauls, despite being bigger. Could have went a bit more accurate with the original specs, but this guitar really turned out well. My fit and finish is flawless.
