MGR/Josh U. « Epiphone Les Paul Special »
Published on 01/25/03 at 15:00I bought this guitar at Sam Ash Music in FL. I paid 549.99 for it. Wasn't a bad price for a broke musician looking for a killer axe. I love it to death. This is as good as a gibson the only difference is the head stock and the pickups, but the rest rules.
I love everything about this guitar. The neck is awesome. I've played Gibson Explorers and V's and they hade the suckiest necks possible. The neck on these LP's are tight. They play like a dream. Perfect for busting out some old EVH stuff or some old Angus Young and Tallica riffs. Second is the looks. One word KILLER I got the honeyburst and the pix on the net do no justice. It's better lookin then cherry sunburst. I love it, it's totally classic rock. Which I play!! I recomend it for boston, AC/DC, BTO, or any other classic rock fans!
I dislike litte bout this guitar. One thing tho is the pickups are a litte weak and not the best in the world, but they work. I'd change um though. Also on all epiphones I think there is a porblem w/ the switch. It sometimes dosen't switch correctly but a couple flicks will fix it. still it's a lil annoying. Unless ur a bridge man like me!
The quality of this is great. construcked well Nice solid peice of wood. No problem w/ it at all in this area. You will be pleased w/ it.
If u r considering this guitar u got ur head on stright. it's an awesome instrument and I would gig w/ it forever. I'd trust in this baby. Go try one out.
