« Epiphone Les Paul Special II »
Published on 06/02/03 at 15:00Got it from Musicians Friend for $240. the package came woth the guitar (duh) gig bag, studio 10 amp, strap and picks. overall a good buy. my first electric.
great action. no adjustments needed. good sound. it has that classic paul sound to it, which i like. very versatile. good clean sound, great for some classic stuff. it also gets great distortion. i can play everything from zepplin to metallica, and it sounds pretty good. i like the looks, too. great vintage sunburst finish. no scratches as yet, except for a few buckle marks on the back. overall a very good guitar.
when i got it, the first thing that happened is the input jack nut got stripped. but this is no problem.easy enough to replace. i had some problems with the treble humbucker for a while. it just didnt make any sound. that stopped after not too long. gets out of tune frequently, but i use a gig bag, so what can you expect. ill have to buy a hard case soon.
very sound. ive knocked it around quite a bit and you cant even tell where it got hit. finish is nice. like i said, a few probs with the treble pu, input jack, etc., but nothing major. its quite heavy, but i like that. makes me feel like i cant hurt it. and you really cant without trying. overall very well made.
great sound. great price. great guitar. im still using the studio 10, but as soon as i get another amp, itll probably sound even better. if you are just starting out, and have a tight budget, and dont want a crappy squire, go get this guitar. hats off to epiphone!
