    📚Description: The 2018 Gibson Les Paul Custom Chambered Blackout series featured EVERYTHING traditionalists would hate all on one model. Obnoxious finish? check. Active EMGs? check. Richlite fretboard? check. Chambered body? Its all here!
    This is a pretty "progressive" run of guitars and they are quite striking! They might not be traditional but they certainly make a bold statement.

      I thought it was freezing up . Sometimes even though I have a high speed connection with AT&T it'll give me an issue with casting to my TV earlier. Earlier I was watching a series and it froze on the bmvidei only . The audio was still going. Didn't help I was watching Alfred Hitchcock presents. I guess I'm good since it wasn't Rod Serlings Twilight Zone. Maybe it's the month .

    That does not look like black mother of pearl (fretboard inlays), I've seen some in real life, and it still has colours and colour shifting/good 3d effect movement to it.
    I'd say this is just some grey-ish pearloid/plastic swirl.

    I would've been looking hard at that guitar had id seen it while shopping for a new one. Cant believe ot took so long to sell. I bought a Trad Pro III in 2019 that had stayed on display almost three years . Gold top split coils burst buckers and 60s indian laurel neck. Once I cleaned up and did a set up it turned out being a good player. I left the film over the pickups but i changed strings and cleaned the frets. Just so you know orange peel finish isn't from buffing. It can be caused by bad atomization of the paint . Paint applied to thick . Incorrect spray gun settings. Bad angle by not being perpendicular to the surface . And one that is usually the cause which is poor surface preparation before painting. What ever you had it set at opening the play portion it sounded a little thin. But brightened up and gave the bite I'd expect from a bridge pickup.

    I wanted one of these SO BADLY in 2018 & still do. But not with active pickups. Nothing kills innovation like "purists", so gimme an orange or red blackout & keep it away from the hipster-wear bump & scratch artists. Gibson should try to get rid of or at least decrease that neck angle, try a better bridge, and maybe even try a MusicMan headstock approach so the strings can pass over the nut without any angle. Instead of the billion different variations of the old design, maybe they can experiment a bit more by adopting some design cues from the industry's best hardware.
    Who makes the best of each?
    Neck & Fretboard - PRS? Suhr?
    Headstock - Music Man? Duesenberg?
    Body -Fender Ultra? Gibson ES-series?
    Tone - Paoletti? Friedman? Gibson?
    Bridge - Gotoh? Schaller?
    Nut - Tusq?
    Meth - Yer mom?
