The new Gibson LP Axcess looks very interesting indeed. Floyd Rose bridge ... contoured body ... upper fret access.

The fret access looks the same. I'll never like Les Pauls, me thinks. Only the looks of them.

If it wasn't for the FR I would like the idea. Where are the springs :? in a hollow cavity that has been structurally designed for its acoustic properties?

I'd prefer a Neal Schon Les Paul to be honest.

I can see how the upper fret access is better, but... I'd rather have a tune-o-matic bridge than an FR...

The fret access looks to be far better? The neck joint 'heel' looks to be gone and that area has been contoured.

I'm not a fan of Floyds, but I think that looks incredibly cool!

The neck joint and beergut-cut look very tidy. Maybe Gibson have finally got some new young elves who know how to work computers, and they've been taking notice of other websites and comments on forums.

If you're reading, Gibson folk, can I have an LP with a thinner body instead of a thick body with swiss-cheese holes in it?

it may be the sexiest les paul ive seen in a long time

but the floyd cavity + these cavitys that will no doubt be there because its anew gibson

will make it sound like ass most likely

these axceess are made at custom so they are not chambered, only the production stuff from the USA plant is chambered. custom is a different shop all together

Davey · « **Reply #12 on:** February 03, 2008, 02:35:06 PM »

plus, thats the bfg.. the most horrendous LP EVER

Transcend · « **Reply #13 on:** February 03, 2008, 02:52:33 PM »

CUBE · « **Reply #14 on:** February 03, 2008, 04:23:09 PM »
