MGR/Anonymous « Epiphone Les Paul Standard »
Published on 02/02/04 at 15:00i got this sweet axe from a friend 3rd hand for £120
i love the warm and thick les paul sound, this guitar sounds great distorted, really fat thanx to the 2 humbuckers. its great for playin all kinds of shit, i play mostly thrash metal and rock and the pickups really cut through. on clean, the neck 'bucker can sound too muddy if the tone isnt cranked and the finish is gorgeous, no mistakes or blotches anywhere
the tuning pegs are a bit dodgy, they rattle when i play and are a bit sloppy, but ill tighten em when i can be arsed, shud do the trick
its a bolt on neck which i thought was strange for a les paul, i think it might be glued as well tho, solid as a rock! as i said, the finish is immaculate. frets are nice n chunky, and the necks nice and fast as its the epiphone version
this is the 1 of the best guitars i own, ive got a vintage vj6 (cough) ESP ltd kh202 and a jackson ke3 kelly and it'll wipe the floor with all of these (cept the KH!) if you want all round versatility - i love it!
