Good but underwhelming
Positively surprised with the QA. Very minor "defects".
Needed a slight set up, after that plays great.
For a first Gibson, I'd say slightly underwhelming experience (idk, I expected sth magical based on the Les Paul aura I guess).
Not sure, if it's worth the money. I'm tempted to check out epiphones next time. (Maybe I just need to get better)
But it sounds great, makes me smile every time I look at it and it is something I've always wanted.

For several years I played a Telecaster, and I was always missing some body and character in the clean tone. A friend recommended trying P90s. But I wasn’t really a fan of Les Paul guitars, which I associated with stadium rock, so I was leaning more toward an ES-330 or a more affordable Epiphone Casino.
However, when I heard this Les Paul live, I instantly forgot all my preconceptions and bought it on the spot. This is the best guitar I’ve ever played, and I’ve played many. It’s an incredibly versatile instrument that can handle almost anything.
The neck pickup gives a warm, punchy sound — perfect for clean jazz tones or blues with a slight overdrive. The middle position can deliver old-school James Brown–style funk: a percussive, cutting tone that isn’t as harsh on the ears as a Fender. And the bridge pickup is pure rock ’n’ roll.
I’m very happy with the purchase. I bought this guitar directly in the Thomann store. It was a Saturday, the end of the workweek, and I happened to make the last purchase of the day. The whole staff applauded (I suspect they were celebrating the end of the week rather than my purchase, but it felt very pleasant and symbolic nonetheless).
