Gibson Les Paul Classic HP 2017 LH Green Ocean Burst
When I received it, mine was particularly well setup. I regret the G-force mechanism because this guitar stays in tune like never seen on a Les Paul :) and I barely have to use it. I love the look. I Love the feeling when playing. I Love the neck join, sooo confortable and I love the smell of the guitar :).

I guess I'm lucky enough to have this guitar as my first electric guitar. It's a perfect beast in all senses. The classic legendary look, stuffed with a lot of modern features of Gibson's HP line. The guitar came all set-up from the factory, all you have to do is to rock it hard. The build quality seems excellent too, and the alu case is fancy as hell (not sure though how sturdy and reliable it is if you're mostly on the road with it).
