I have had this guitar for more than a month now, have played it through 3 different amps, and compared it with 4 other Les Pauls. I would say I am very happy with it. I have commented about it many times in the forum but here's a short summation - all things being subjective of course:

 

PROS:

The setup from the factory was flawless.

The available tone selection vis-a-vis the 3 PUs and 6-way switching is fantastic.

The Bigsby does NOT cause the guitar to go out of tune.

The action is low and without buzz.

This thing feels solid like a Mercedes.

The neck is not too thick for players who like thinner necks.

 

CONS:

VOS on the black finish just looks plain filthy.

The banana yellow binding looks well, banana yellow.

The case looks and feels cheap.

Thee is no documentation exclusive to this guitar - just the regular manual.

I strongly agree with your comment about the case.

For the prices that we are paying for these Guitars the quality of the case should be commensurate with the quality of the guitar.

The cases that came with my PRS and with my Yamaha are way superior to the Gibson case.

 

Just my 2-cents
