    Amazing this video just randomly popped up on KZread. I originally went to my guitar store To buy this exact same guitar After seeing it on their website. They couldn't find it so I got an Epiphone Les Paul Custom instead at good price. After many weeks I went back to buy some other things and saw it hanging there! Because of the awesome looks and price I ended up buying that one too! Right now doing Physical Therapy with my acoustic. Then when better I will start with this one first then eventually get to the Epiphone. This one will be my upgrade/ tech learning guitar.

    I just got one of these... looking into the tuning stability it seems that the slots on the nut are cut a little tight. Either running 9-42s or touching up the slots with a set of nut files seems to work. I gave the nut a really light going over and put on some graphite. BIG improvement!

    Actually for my tone in this video everything was from the Neural DSP Fortin NTS Suite plugin. And it has a simulation of the Fortin Hexdrive which I did have engaged. So I guess you could say I did use a distortion type pedal. I love my amps, but 9 times out of 10 I run through a drive like a tube screamer, and a great noise gate pedal before hitting the amps distortion and it always gives you an amazing buttery, and aggressive tone! :) Thank you for watching!

From my own experience with bareknuckle pickups I can easily say that they are very much worth it, and just amazing people to work with. Enjoy the new guitar!!! 🙂
