Love that carved maple top that isn't flashy. Natural grain, not flamed/bookmatched, and it sounds great. Getting one of these as soon as funds allow.

I like the weight relieved guitars. I'm not a fan of the wood satin finishes though but do prefer the glossy wood finishes over the solid painted versions. Thanks for sharing!

I have this guitar. Been playing for over 30 years. It's a great guitar and the tone is awesome unless you're tone dead.

Just got mine today. Satin Iced Tea. Construction was flawless barring one issue. The fret ends at the last few frets where the neck joins the body could have used a little work. They aren't "cut your fingers" sharp, just not as nicely done as Gibson typically does. When building a guitar the details are the time consuming part, so obviously there's going to be a bit less attention to detail paid in certain areas to meet the price point. Easy to take care of. My case was black with a crinkled leather finish, and its a damn nice case. Ive owned two Gibsons in the past and this is as nice a looker and player as either of those. It may not be as pretty as higher end Gibbys, but I'm not gonna cry if this one gets a ding or two, either. By the way, the "poker chip" comes separate in the case, but is east to install if that's your thing. Also, on the Gibson website, the specs show that they come strung with 10s, not 9s.

I am so torn at the moment. I want a wight relieved LP but I don't want to pay Studio prices. They look better with the gloss finish than the Tribute but the only other feature I am aware of is the coil split which I am not really bothered about. Hard to justify paying another $400 just for that.

David, what pots are in this? I've heard they use PCB's, is that true?

They're still heavy! It wouldn't be a LP if it wasn't a little heavy.

Hey man. I'm thinking of upgrading from an epiphone standard pro to one of these. What are they like? Am I getting a solid machine? Is it as pure as a five thousand dollar standard? What's your opinions? Thank you.

Lovely guitar and lovingly treated then blasted it, so it could be any piece of crap .

I have this guitar. My wife bought it for me a while ago. She looks and sounds great. Playability wise it's not so great. My Squier VM 70's Strat has action about half as high as the Gibson. ( and yes the LP was set up by a pro authorized Gibson tech). I do love it though.

Looking at getting the same one I play at home it’s made in America no need for me to be a gear snob it’s not a standard or a deluxe blu blu blu

Look how sharp the fretboard edges are; smh

Just got a tribute but tbh i dont like it. Might just be me as been using fenders past few years i find it plays like a cheap guitar. Accoustically not very refined but plugged in is ok. Action way too low, but i adjusted that. Feels cheap compared to equivalent fender. Tele with cs pickups sounds better.

You did not play clean, why??

Gee I wonder what Guitar sounds like? All I heard was your effects
