Re: your comments on Gibson pricing vs. other similar guitars (ie PRS)......... it's not an issue of high price, with Gibson it's a matter of high price AND poor quality. At least when you buy a PRS you are getting impeccable high quality. Gibson has their high price but delivers sub-Epiphone quality. You roll the dice when you buy a Gibson and they really don't care.😐 Notwithstanding, your Adam Jones there is a beautiful guitar.

Yes and no. It still has that classic les paul neck pickup sound , but the bridge is definitely more suited for high gain metal. Definitely a niche guitar for people who want to sound like adam, but amp settings and volume control can change a lot.
