      Yes. The Les Paul shape is beautiful. I thought the Trump guitar looked familiar.

      I won’t comment on design

        To my understanding Les Pauls really don’t stay in tune very well. Pretty, though. When they’re not plastered in nationalism.

      That isn’t really what is disturbing in my opinion. The disturbing part is people will buy it and tell you it is a gold nugget.

      From other articles I’ve read, some parts are sourced outside the US, some from within. I think the implication was that they’re assembled in the US, but I haven’t seen anything to completely confirm it.
