The choice of a \u003cstrong\u003eone-piece large mahogany body\u003c\/strong\u003e (a distinctive feature of this model) enhances the dense and mellow character, while the ebony fingerboard provides the clarity needed to maintain control even at high gain.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho Is It For, and In Which Styles?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith its \u003cstrong\u003eChunky C-shaped neck\u003c\/strong\u003e, high-end craftsmanship, and very present acoustic balance, this Les Paul is primarily aimed at \u003cstrong\u003eintermediate to expert guitarists\u003c\/strong\u003e who want an expressive response to their playing and an \"old school\" feel.
