RUSHian Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I was just at Guitar Center, and I didn't see one. It's a great deal, but still too steep for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan Sutherland Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I'm sure this is a fine guitar, and I certainly do not want to ruffle any feathers, but what is 'traditional' about a Les Paul with a Floyd Rose? I personally would not want a Floyd Rose on an LP, but I can see how there would be a market for this particular instrument; why call it a Traditional? How about the LP Dive Bomb, LP Shred... maybe the LP Ibanez or LP Jackson. I'm off my soap box, sorry for wasting your time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUSHian Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I had a Les Paul Shred with Floyd and It was a great guitar! I'm sure this will be awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobertAndersson Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 Floyd Rose... I own a Kramer w/ Floyd Rose tremolo, my main guitar for many years. On one hand I really like it, it adds some great playing possibilities. On the other hand, tuning gets very tricky since slacking one string tightens all other strings out of tune. Bending a string gets less effective since the bridge rises with the bend, and heavy bends on one string will bring all others out of tune. //Robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems to be a bit like the Les Paul Access, without the slim body and scalloping of the heel. If they're going for a shred machine, should they not just stick with Access specs? Just me; don't want to step on toes :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
