Gibson Review: Les Paul Standard

History:

Purchase: I was at the Music Gallery in Highland Park IL. in 1993 chatting about basses and I said i wished that Gibson made a Les Paul bass. They told me that Gibson was just starting to taking orders and start making a Les Paul bass. I received one of the first basses they made. At the time it cost about $1300.

What I Like About This Gibson Les Paul Standard: The action on the Les Paul bass is fantastic. Extremely easy to play. The craftsmanship that goes into making it is awesome. The finish is a very shiny vintage sunburst. The mother of pearl in the headstock and neck give it an elegent look.

What I Do NOT Like About The Gibson Les Paul Standard: There isn't anything i don't like about my Les Paul bass.
