Over at the LP forum I heard they feel cheap, but I don't give a sh** about such comments, because it could be THE guitar for you!

I get that... unbound necks feel cheap to me. I have no issues with paying extra for fully bound guitars.

Anybody have more time with the RP LP http://www2.gibson.com/Products/Electric-Guitars/Les-Paul/Gibson-USA/Les-Paul-Studio-Raw-Power.aspx

or it's SG cousin?

The SG looks like an awesome guitar to mod, if found at a resonable price. Nearly a grand is too much.
But it's easier work and already so cool as stock, giving a great Gibson 'Strat' vibe, missing only the trem bar. Experimenting with the electronics could yield serious results.

Hey Mud, you got one now? What is it like? I could imagine the Raw Power to be a great guitar. Thinking about getting me one :drool
