Hi, I'm Alex. Guitar player of the German Nu-Alternative-Band CANNIKIN.

I have played Gibson guitars for many years. My first was the Les Paul Standard which is one of the best guitars in the world. When I saw the first ad of the BFG I really fell in love with this guitar. The stripped-down finishing, the color, the style...This was it!!!!

And when I got my hands on it, it was love from the beginning. The sound, the playability, everything's great! When you want to play loud, hard, raw, you have to strap on a BFG. The Pickup-combination is great for everything.

Raw powerchords and fine-art clean sounds...everything's possible! I love this P90/Burstbucker combination. It's so flexible and you always have the possibility to create a very luxurious tone as well. Sure, this guitar is for us heavy rockers, but I think it is so full of variations that bluesrockers will use it too.

The first reaction from my band members when I opened the case was: "Wow!!! What he hell...this is really a BAD F***ING NICE GUITAR!" (Please note the description "nice"!) And that's what this guitar really is. And when I plugged it in.they were blown away!

No photo can transport the feeling and the fire this guitar has.

I like to say to everyone out there: "Go into a shop...grab this guitar...play it...use it...and then LOVE IT!" This is really a genuine Les Paul with a great attitude!
