Gibson: Les Paul BFG scrutiny (Part 2)

Here's how the BFG's internal looks like. Heretics have deemed this guitar a hollow-body in disguise. While Les Paul purists consider this exessive chambering blasphemous, the BFG wasn't conceived to propagate the vintage goodness of its predecessors. It is therefore not a representative of the typical Les Paul tone which is arguably the signature bottom end growl under loads of distortion. Nevertheless, this cavernous internal has given the guitar more definition in the midrange.
