Great FWIW

I have the black and chrome version, and I got a really good deal on it. Beautiful guitar, and good electronics, but it comes with the usual Les Paul tuning issues, and the machine heads came loose after a little while, but they've stayed in place after I filled and rescrewed the screw holes for each peg.
