Chad Kroeger Blackwater Les Paul by Gibson
Chad Kroeger and his band Nickelback are among the elite rock bands of today, masterfully combining heavy rock and softer ballads.

Tune-o-matic bridge on this model is paired with a stoptail bar. 498T humbucker is in the bridge and 490R in the neck position.

The Blackwater LP is a great guitar with a lot of sound variations due to the Piezo pickup. I have had no issues with mine and the finish is beautiful. Since it is a stereo guitar, I would have been nice if Gibson would have included a Stereo cable in the package.

I have one of these bought it two days ago and love everything about it but the fact I find it quite hard to play. PMT say thats the Gibson experience you have to play it, I suppose that meens hard. Its my first Les Paul so I said ok leave it with me.

I also have a PRS se which is quite the opposite, a dream to play.

I hope I can get used to it. Any one dissagree or have some set up tips I would be glad to hear also any one thinking of buying one I may be able to help you ! Another nice thing about this is it has rosewood fingerbord (not baked maple) and there is only 200 worldwide so there is very few around. Thankyou in advance , Mark.
