SC-450Plus LD Vintage Series : A Les Paul at this price point

I was sceptical [:-)] before buying this guitar as I had seen a few very positive reviews on line and needed to check one out for myself.

This was one of the most pleasant surprises I have had. Right out of the box it was pretty well set up and once tuned and truss rod, action and intonation tweeked a little it was as good as any Les Paul I have played. Not only as good but with the extra heal cut the access to the higher frets was even better than the Gibson version. Reminded me of the ESP heal cut somewhat which I love.

Additionally the coil splits make this such a versatile instrument.

I have recorded with it in the studio and taken it out to live sessions and it performs flawlessly and is a joy to play.

The most inspiring instruments make you want to pick them up and play more often and also write new riffs and songs. I have written many with this guitar already. Thoroughly recommended. :-)
