opinons on the Epiphone Les Paul Custom please

Post by Top Dollar »

Image

As pictured, it's in white which just looks beauitful. Retails around $600 CDN. I doodled around with it at the music store and just got goosebumps. So before I shell out that kind of money, I'd like some feedback! There's far more educated guitarists/musicians on here than myself, so any advice and input would be great.

Some info here http://www.epiphone.com/default.asp?Pro ... ectionID=6

It's gay that Gibson still makes cheap guitars and Epiphone makes expensive guitars.

So I take it that it's a quality guitar?

I have no idea, but Musicians Friend has 341 reviews on this guitar and hopefully one of them knows what they're talking about.

i have one of these cheapo epiphone les pauls and it's actually not too bad. http://www.musiciansfriend.com/product/ ... sku=518334

I put an EMG hz in the bridge and it gets decent tone. i honestly can't tell much difference between my guitar and the more expensive one.

Well I got it and it's truly a thing of beauty. I have a Line6 Spider II amp (had for about a year), I've just noticed that the sound is a bit more...clear?sharp? It's a nicer,richer sound, but I'm sure I need to look into getting a more compatible amp for this guitar. I know next to nothing about gear,and all these technical stuff. I read how people changed the pickups for whatever reason,it's stuff I'm not too familiar with. I just play the damn thing. But yea, I'll save up some money and turn in my Line6 and look into getting a new one. I'm very happy with my purchase. It feels right when I play it, and looks right on me. It's a great feeling.

Funny, because the name of my instrument in not in my screen name means that I must have no idea as to how to play, right?

You never talk about it and obviously have no passion for it, but you'll show off your new guitar and that you play any chance you get!

Its not new and I have been in bands since I was 13.. Because I dont feel the need to share that with you means nothing. Get over yourself and shut the fuck up. You are a lame punk ass kid who thinks his opinion matters. It doesn't. :fu:
