Man, slightly yellowed white LPC is the epitome of classy guitars.

[Napthol]

Reminds me of Randy Rhoads.

Craftsmanship & tone for starters.

[Aceman]

Craftsmanship & tone for starters.

So, how exactly was it "crafted" that makes it awesome?

And what is the tone? What pickups are in it, and what was the signal chain you played it through that brought the tone?

we all have our favorites, at least i do. putting that into words is hard. his signal chain is pretty well documented here for anyone that pays attention

Even if it's not perfect, when you bond a guitar, it's kinda hard to separate the emotional aspect from the objectivity of what makes a guitar good.

That being said... it's a freaking Gibson CS. Even if they have a track record of not being perfect and whatnot, they don't charge what they charge for nothing. I mean, people keep buying them. They must be doing something well.

Yeah but I get what Aceman is saying. I own a CS Les Paul myself and it is at the end of the day a Les Paul. I think what Ace is asking is what makes this guitar so special outside of emotional attachment, which is fine.
