Combines the Les paul sound with the sound of semi hollow guitars.

This guitar is awesome very versatile. Because of the f shape holes it sounds like a semi hollow guitar but the awesome Les Paul sound remains. With this guitar I could play Jazz, Rock, and really anything actually. So for the price this guitar is really good.

Great sound, minor issues, makes up for it.

Mine is in a stock trans-black finish. I mess with alternate/custom tunings alot, so I might have the tuners replaced, as I've had issues with it sliding out of tune.
