I think that looks sweet and all of the upgrades are quality. Hey, did you post this over at MLP Forum too, it looks familiar?

At any rate, it's a beautiful guitar. Congratulations.

SO many people buy these....why?

because it is a Les Paul at the right price. I wonder ion Gibson knows it is killing its main lines with these?

This is really a good guitar, a good instrument. I paid 750 €, soft price too.

Why so many people buy these? It's because they're great guitars at an affordable price. They look good without all the fancy binding which is incredibly more expensive. I like the stripped down look and it's all about preference.

Great look and I bet it sounds wonderful. The faux binding, did you just sandpaper it or something else involved?

You have to scrape the edges down to bare wood. It's done with a razor blade, just like they scrape real binding at Gibson.

I tried to buy one in honey burst, seems the model in particular I tried was a bad apple since I did not purchase it at the time.

It felt “stiff”

But stiff in the way a woman can be stiff vs she can be sweet

Not like action etc
