Thanks Yaff to be honest it was the top that made me buy it and I think I paid over the going rate for it. I only purchased it about a month ago and although it was sold as used it had obviously been with dealers for three years and demoed but not really played at all' date=' came with all doc's including guarantee After some tweaking it now plays and sounds a dream apart from looking like one. First time I have owned a Les Paul and the more I play it the more I like it. BB Pros sound great to my ears and despite have fairly big hands the 60's neck plays like butter. I have also read all the discussions about chambered bodies, short tenons and all I can say is that despite having them it sustains forever and at 7.4 lbs doesn't break your back when playing it. Oh and I have played Les Pauls with a solid body and thick neck and this model is up with the best of them. Mind you I could be biased :-
