According to Slash, the guitar has been designed with the fans in mind and aims to emulate the sound of the Les Paul he used to record ‘Appetite For Destruction´, as opposed to Slash´s other signature LPs, which… err… were not supposed to do that.

The biggest difference seems to be Slash´s signature Seymour Duncan Alnico II Pro pickups, which have been wrapped 80s-style.

Other smaller features are explained by the man himself in the video below.
