Overall:I'm impressed with the fit and finish of the 60s Standard, it's really a lovely guitar. I'm very happy with the setup from the factory, very surprising compared to other Gibsons from the past, plays great out of the box. Inverness Green is beautiful, not much more to say about that. The one I got weighed in at 10 lbs even, which I'm guessing is pretty average for these. Only issue I had was one of the knobs had shattered in the case during shipping, zZounds took care of the issue promptly and as usual it was a good experience with them. Great playing and sounding guitar.

To own a Gibson Les Paul Standard was a dream I had since childhood.To watch all the great artists perform on the beautifully crafted guitars was magic to all senses. Now that I can call one of those my own is a dream come true. The double AA top is amazing. I wonder what AAA must be like. Well as soon as you plug it in and feel the vibrating corpus on your chest, you know it’s yours and you won’t change it for another one. It’s all about emotion with an instrument like that. Sure, it’s an investment but you’ll always have true worth that holds for lives to come. A gem.

I have purchased Gibson before and was never impressed with the quality, however having restructured the company and going back to what they do best, the build quality is flawless! Not to mention the sound and play-ability, it's awesome!The purchasing process with Music-Store was very easy and the delivery time was very fast!

The quality of this guitar is simply amazing. Beautiful finish, perfect big sound of a true Gibson Les Paul. I wasn't sure if I should choose the 50's or 60's version due to slight differences but finally got this one and it was a goooooood decision.
Overall, best LP standard out of Gibson compared to previous years!+ Great looking finish, couldn't find any imperfections+ Good linear response from electronics (smooth transitions in volume and tone).+ Awesome flame maple top (each one is different though, so sometimes you simply need to be lucky).+ Classic Gibson tone+ Good nut height (sometimes kept too high on purpose by Gibson, but this one is spot on)- Be prepared to do some minor (but crucial!) set-up work, even though the guitars are checked in the store. The neck on mine had way too little bow, which ment none of the strings could even remotely vibrate freely. It was a 5 minute easy fix and now it plays beautifully, so don't hesitate to use the complementary multitool which comes with the guitar!- ... MoreOverall, best LP standard out of Gibson compared to previous years!+ Great looking finish, couldn't find any imperfections+ Good linear response from electronics (smooth transitions in volume and tone).+ Awesome flame maple top (each one is different though, so sometimes you simply need to be lucky).+ Classic Gibson tone+ Good nut height (sometimes kept too high on purpose by Gibson, but this one is spot on)- Be prepared to do some minor (but crucial!) set-up work, even though the guitars are checked in the store.

This is historically accurate, so it's not completely fair to put it as a negative... but in my opinion these are a bit harder to reach. It requires a steadier hand to not scratch the pick-ups.
I was very pleased by the exemplar that I got from musicstore. I looked everywhere and I couldn’t find any imperfection or mark. I am very pleased with this purchase! I recommend everyone to buy this guitar.
Beautiful guitar, sounds and looks fabulous, you don't notice the weight, it's a complete dream guitar
I finally saved money for this guitar and when I wanted to buy it, there was no available models in stock all across Netherlands. I was trying to find it everywhere and eventually I found one piece here in Music Store. i was so happy! It arrived in a good packaging by DHL. It took longer then expected (a few days longer) but in a good shape. I recorder a full unboxing just in case of any issues, but it turned out that the guitar and the suitcase are in perfect condition. no glitches, or scratches all over the guitar. The construction and the setup are as expected. The sound is also awesome and as expected from a such guitar. Overall, I am very happy with this order.
