This is the first '68 Custom we've been able to get our hands on in a while, and it is such a jump up in quality from the USA shop Les Paul Custom it's unreal - it makes the others feel like an Epiphone!  Really smooth and comfortable neck (slightly slimmer than the standard USA Les Paul Custom neck), and it's a textbook example of how the quality of wood in a guitar affects what you hear - this sounds a whole world away from other Gibsons...
