    I started playing guitar when I was twelve, so that is about 16 years of playing time. I have played in numerous bands in that time, mostly hard rock/metal.

    I went to Guitar Center in Chattanooga, TN about three weeks ago looking for a Schecter, because I have heard that they have great bottom end. I saw the Epiphone Les Paul Standard for $380, and I couldn't pass it up. I plugged both guitars up in the store, and the Les Paul blew the Schecter away. It sounds great distorted or clean, and I have never heard better for the price.

    It feels great, not too heavy, not too light. The tone is awesome no matter what you are playing through, and you can hit a pinch harmonic on any fret. The Epip…

    It feels great, not too heavy, not too light. The tone is awesome no matter what you are playing through, and you can hit a pinch harmonic on any fret. The Epiphone pickups that come in the guitar sound great, and the action is perfect. I got the black one, but they have about ten different colors, and they all look awesome.


    there isn't really anything that I don't like about this guitar, but I could do without the pickguard.

    This guitar is built with great quality. It was made in China, which is usually a turnoff for me, but not this time.

    This has to be the best guitar you can buy for the money. I would recommend this guitar for anyone. Why spend $1200 for a gibson when you can get the same quality for $400?

    I got this guitar at Guitar Center in Lawrenceville, GA. I bought it because I love the look and feel of a solid Les Paul, and I was sick of the strat and tele bodies. I payed $600. They threw in a gig bag, new strings, strap locks, a strap, a cable, and picks. So it was a great deal.

    It sounds amazing. Whats not to love about this guitar? It is sooooo beautiful. The trapezoid inlays are beautiful. It is such a good-sounding guitar. A welcome escape from the sharp sounding strat. The pickups are fine, but I am changing them and getting Gibson BurstBucker Pros. I don't really need to, these are fine, i just want to. It is a Les Paul, what can I say.

    It is very new, just got to the store from the factory like a month ago. It is a rock. I played it with a Gibson, it wasn't as good, but it was close enough.

    FREAKIN AWESOME.

    Gibson Les Paul Standard

    Epiphone Les Paul Standard LHPublished on 04/16/05 at 15:00
    I was at the Music Gallery in Highland Park IL. in 1993 chatting about basses and I said i wished that Gibson made a Les Paul bass. They told me that Gibson was just starting to taking orders and start making a Les Paul bass. I received one of the first basses they made. At the time it cost about $1300.

    The action on the Les Paul bass is fantastic. Extremely easy to play. The craftsmanship that goes into making it is awesome. The finish is a very shiny vintage sunburst. The mother of pearl in the headstock and neck give it an elegent look.

    Christmas '04...Not sure how much was paid but im almost 100% sure it was $560 Canadian, at Avenue Guitars in Edmonton

    I like almost everything about this guitar. The finish is really amazing (Trans Amber) and its weight is absolutely perfect. Not too heavy, like some Les Pauls i've played, but not too light that it feels like its a toy. The neck is also perfect (for me), it feels so natural in my hand. I really like how its consrtucted too, set neck into a really chunky body and the carved top is so nice. The inlays are beautiful too, I've never seen pearl inlays like these. I guess the appropriate word to describe them would be "vivid". Frets are near perfect as well.

I guess the appropriate word to describe them would be "vivid". Frets are near perfect as well.

    There is not much that I don't like about this guitar, I don't like the pickguard so I took it off, It kind of seems out of place on the guitar. It leaves two small holes visible but you don't notice them, they are really tiny. Also, I'm not liking how the top strap button is screwed in. (the one above the neck) It is not exactly paralell with the neck, but on sort of an angle because its screwed into the arch. (Look at some Les Paul photos to see what I mean) This sometimes causes the strap to fall off while standing up, but hopefully you're fast enough and you can save the guitar before it hits the ground. This can be fixed by using strap locks.

    Construction and quality is almost top notch. This guitar compares to a Gibson very easily, I just don't know why people spend so much money on the Gibsons, when you could get an Epi thats the same quality, if not better, for not even half the price. Personally, I like the way the Epiphones feel better than Gibson. The guitar feels very solid, every once and a while you might have to tighten a few nuts and bolts (ex. input jack), if you have a correct size rachet or box wrench, then it will take all of 5 seconds out of your day. Besides, what guitar doesn't need a little tightening and maintanence now and then.

    This guitar overall, is a great deal. A REAL Les Paul (Remember, Les Paul is scripted on the headstock) for a price that everyone can afford. I know a lot of people complain about the weight, but its really oblivious to me. I think its because I play bass guitar in a band and I'm used to having a 10-pound bass hanging on my shoulder all the time. To make my Epi even better than it is though, my future plans include installing a Gibson Dirty Finger pick-up in the bridge position and replacing the pots with Gibson USA pots. Buy it.

    I bought it at a local music store for 400 bucks. I bought it because I had heard good things about this guitar

    It has a incredible sound for a guitar of that price. It's also like playing a Gibson.

    I had to change the pick ups because they are not so great. I replaced them by seymour duncan and now the guitar sounds really perfect. The neck is a little bit big, but it's like all the Les Paul.

    It is built like a tank. The finish is beautiful.

    Seriously this is one of the best guitar you can buy with a small budget. You will maybe have to change the pickups if you want a better sound. That's a beautiful guitar, very similar to Gibson.

    Nothing

    100% quality and craftsmanship. Not a single flaw.

    I am not sure of the price today of the Gibson Les Paul Standard Bass, But I think it is worth every penny.

    the price i had to pay in the uk!

    Top Quality!

    safe as houses old boy. solid construction body, set neck is immovable, mahogany fingerboard is is fast and sweet, hmmm sweet.pickups are great, gibson spec humbuckers for grrreat tone. finish is a great, honey sunburst, brings out my eyes.

    Rock musician? stop deliberating, reguardless of style youll like it (unless your a pretentious gibson only player.that means YOU DANNY CANNON! And even they wouldnt notice the difference if the manufacturers name wasnt printed- stylishly- across the headstock. buy the feckin geetar, play it, go to the pub.

    My guitar is the late creme finish which looks great and isn't as common as the sunburst finishes. This guitar is built really solid and could take alot of punishment. The finish is great and it has the unbelivable les Paul sound. It has enough sustain to play anything you want.

    built like a rock. Great quality (Like all Gibsons). These things hold their value longer than any other guitar i've ever seen.

    this is a great guitar and it will serve you well for as long as you own it. Les Pauls are a little expensive but well worth the money.

UGH! i've tried 'em before and theyre such a hassle to restring with the locking nut and all that garbage. So the LP's stoptail works great for me!

    ok i hate the tuning keys! i replaced those IMMEADIATLY with so grovers. next, both pickups SUCK. i replaced the bridge with a Gibson Dirty Fingers and the neck w/ a Seymour Duncan '59. man! what a killer combo! next the pickguard had to go. it looked trashy and made it look "epiphonish". i dont know why, but i once i took it off it looks alot like the Gibson Strd. Plus you get to see more of the beautiful flame top. also, the pickup selector switch makes a echo when you switch from bridge to neck p-ups. its like the noise reverberates in the cavity? i dont know but i put in a whole new Gibson selector and...wow! no more echos! then the input jack cover (the little plastic sqaure around the jack) broke so i put on a Metal one so it wont break now. and the final touch, i put in two puch-pull volume pots so i can split the coils (the p'ups have to be 4-conductor...be shure to specify it for the seymour b/c the norm. '59 is 2 cond. the Gibson always is 4-cond) and get the Strat-like tone w/o the crappy strat. also its a little heavy but what do you expect with a mahagony gtr?!?!?

    the quality is great, aside from what i just listed under "dislikes" its a great bang for the buck. once you get everything done that i did to mine, im shure it will be almost as a good if not better than a gibson (considering the price $$$). lol.

    If you want Les Paul tone....DONT BUY THIS GUITAR! If you want Les Paul qauality, looks, and wont mind forking over some extra cash, than this guitar is for YOU! In all my guitar is worth about $900. If you arent crazy bout Pauls but are considering this gtr i wounldnt reccomend this to you. go buy some fancy Jackson or Fender! However if you DO get this guitar and after its properly upgraded, than yes, this guitar is the bomb!

    I bought this guitar at white house of music in wisconsin for about 550$. I bought this guitar because i liked the neck being attached to the body and also the not to fat feeling the neck had. Also for the price this guitar sounds excellent on the distortion channel without and buzz or unwanted feeback.

    I like the great sound it gives from the distortion channel, the great feel of the neck, and also the weight. It isnt as heavy as a regular las paul(much lighter). Also it has a great cherry burst finish that makes it look like a gibson.

    The quality is great for being an epiphone. It isnt as high quality as a gibson but it is still put together very nicely and has no great great defects except for the strap holders.

    Overall a great guitar with a great sound and a great price that is almost as good as a gibson. I highly recomend purcahsing this because it looks great sounds great and just wont let you down.

    I just love my les paul! It sounds amazing and super clear both when its distorted and when its clean! The paint and color is just brilliant! (Mine is cherry sunburst)
    The neck is really fast and comfortable. Also it has 4 control knobs plus the humbucker slector switch so you can adjust the sound to how you like it without messing with your amp.


    Well, this isn't major or anything really inmortant but, its a pain because i have to be so careful with it because if something happened to it it would be like throwing away $3000. Other than that i haven't found any flaws!

    Its a very high quality guitar. The paint and finish is amazing, and even the wood grain is nice! The humbuckers are great. The body is really strong, but also on the heaier side. The fret board is also really nice with the beatiful pearl trapezoid inlays.

    If your saving up for a better guitar, wait the extra while and buy this one! They're expensive but worth it! Also if you can get one cheap like i did, BUY IT!

    i dont like how there isnt a body cut away (the feel of strats). at first i thought the "burstbuckers" were the ****, but after i dropped in a Gibson Dirty Fingers in the bridge and Seymour Duncan '59 model in the neck i realized they were aweful. also, the vintage plastic tuners are cheep..i just put on some new Boomers and like 5 minutes later after tuning, i realized D string had already slipped outta tune, so i put some Sperzel Locking tuners on her and BOOM! i havent had to tune for about 2 weeks!!! and for cosmetics, i put on a "Standard" truss rod cover...just to make it look more "authentic Gibson".

    very durable. except for the tuners, i havent had any problems at all. i giged with her at my schools Band Banquet (sorta like Battle of the Bands) and we won first place! Call it luck, but i think i was all due to my trusty Epiphone LP!!

    a great guitar. a bit overpriced, but i got mine for $350 so i can't complain. great for 20 minute solos ;)

    My dad bought me this for christmas and he bought it from musicians friend for 599$

    Great guitar I love the humbuckers that come with it. It gives me that raw distorted rock sound that I like. This guitar is also capable of blues which I also like to play. Aside from the sound it looks awesom. The classic chrome hardware and pearloid trapeziod inlay are the best. I have it Heritage Cherry suunburst finish.
    Oh yeah and it says gibson on the headstock that makes me feel cool.

    My dad bought me this for christmas and he bought it from musicians friend for 599$

    Great guitar I love the humbuckers that come with it. It gives me that raw distorted rock sound that I like. This guitar is also capable of blues which I also like to play. Aside from the sound it looks awesom. The classic chrome hardware and pearloid trapeziod inlay are the best. I have it Heritage Cherry suunburst finish.
    Oh yeah and it says gibson on the headstock that makes me feel cool.

    All around good construction exept for the three way selector switch it went all loose and crooked on me a month into owning it.
    It has a couple chips out of it because the strap fell of and I droped on the kitchen floor I nearly had a heart attack.

    I recommend this guitar to anyone who plays hard rock like ac/dc led zeppelin etc.I feel like a rockstar with this guitar and if you buy it you will too.
