MGR/XenO « Epiphone Les Paul-100 »
Published on 03/11/06 at 15:00I've been in many bands (local) ,i do also record with some Singers,and i make my own music too..i play mostly everything : rock,hard rock,blues,alternative,Pop, even new age and this Guitar fits my needs.
I live in Lebanon so i baught it from the Gibson Dealer in here For 400$ i had a fender strat before,but what i wanted is a Fat deep tone wich a strat don't deliver it,the first i entered the shop i gotta say that this guitar is an eye catching with it's finish,there was 2 LPs Epiphone Classic ( Black ) and the Lp-100 ( Heritage Sunburst) side by side..i tired both the Classic coast 900$ ..didn't have that much by that time so i tried the Lp-100 and it surprised me! the action is way better ..the fret baord is thiner..and easy to play ,it's tone was great ..Crystal Clean on the clean channel..screaming solos with the distortion so i baught this one..the tone was deep warm with a good sustain..this is what i needed ..
First of all i do like the Finish (herritage sunburst ) it makes it look like a Classy LP ,and i like it's thin body..bout the way it sound, it fits my needs as i said , i like the warm deep tone caused by it's heavy wood , i also like the feel of it's weight, u feel like ur play a GUITAR!
there's nothin that i don't like in it..but i wish that it had a les paul signature on the head stock ..that's all.
It's well constructed..heavy guitar..once i droped it accidentaly from it's case right to the floor..it survived without a minor scratch! the tuners are little bit cheap..but that's nothing..and the pickups ain't perfect but they do the job..but everything else is quite good.
it's a great guitar with a greater sound,u may not beleive it..i played it head-to-head with a Gibson Studio.. the owner of the gibson liked this one..and so do i it's better than the gib. studio..
if ur lost and don't know which guitar u have to buy.. buy this one.
for me i replaced the pickups with :496R and a 500T gibson pickups..and replaced the tuners with grover turners...
and it's almost a gibson..it sound like a gibson..cheers.
