After reading tons of positive reviews of the 2019/2020 production I decided to buy my first Gibson Les Paul. The first impression when opening the case was very good. Beautiful finish and lovely details.
The disappointment first came when I plugged in the guitar. The volume/tone for bridge and neck were wired in reverse mode. What is normally controlling the bridge pickup was controlling the neck pickup and vice versa. This is not a huge problem but still enough to irritate you a bit. The most disappointing thing with the guitar was the fretwork. The 6th, 12th and all frets above the 15th fret were uneven. Having the price of a Gibson in mind you would think the quality control would be better - sadly that is not always the case. Even the guitar tech that helped me fixing this thought it was a shame that Gibson sends guitars like these from their factory.
However, after some extra money spent and hours fixing these issues, it now plays like a dream.
