Great guitar, greater price.
Solid guitar, lighter than a standard Les Paul but with all the characteristic sustain and oomph. The pickups have a slightly overwound but still classic PAF sound and all the rest of the hardware is pretty solid.
I got mine with Steinberger gearless locking tuners and they've been flawless but there's also the option to get it with a min-e-tune.

Lovely guitar to play with
For this one I have changed those machine heads to Kulson style tuners, tone pros bridge and tailpiece which improves and time and quality of sustain. 57 Classic and 57 Classic Plus pickups are working nicely on this guitar especially the neck pickup, so much warmth and harmonics.
Gibson Future
Wicked guitar! It´s cheap, but with a high cost-bennefit relation. The pickups has a clean tone, when added a drive, is fat and warm. Worth it!
