.... LP is a good c

UTILIZATION

<ul> Channel: J ADORE! it sticks very well to my hand, I find it rather fast and fun to play
The access acute aus: ca borders on the troll, much like it n, c is a little hard at first, but it is sy. Qq days after we don 't think even more.
Ergonomics: The LP form, finish and the violin are impeccable. The weight? This is part of the charm of LAlpe
Sound: AC is complique.lPersonnellement I find the pickups not terrible and not very precise highs. J uses my multi effects pedal BOSS to try to fix / hide the imperfections. </ul>

Small point, the mechanisms are very light. J have the change of mechanical pr a bath oil.

SOUNDS

<ul> Styles: For the Jazz, tt ca be made, blues aussi.Pour terms of the Blues / Rock -> Rock ca gate.Les microphones to go live in that there is a metal satutation / crunchy ... But hey do not forget the value for money.
Amp: Fender Princeton 65W: no worries pr jazz and blues (see above)
BOSS ME50
Sounds: Sound LP. I hate the sound that it gives the metal or heavy saturation
</ul>

OVERALL OPINION

<ul> Tps of Use: 3 years
+: Shape, use (handle, violin)
Very good value for money. In my opinion we must invest even qd pr new microphones
With experience I think that I would have waited a little longer and buy a Gibson ... C is allowed to dream qd same
</ul>

piphone les paul shape, made in Korea it seems to me
22 hambuckers two frets, two volume pots and two pots tonalitbr /> slcteur a three position (exellent compared to models such 5position Fender Squier Stratocaster etc.)
mine is cherry burst finish

UTILIZATION

Good is not the handle of ibanez, a bit more peace of soaps that our friends the shredders.

Easy Access in a sharp contrast the reputable but it is far from being nirvana in any way this guitar, it is chosen for the Personal of the Paul not the fast which we runs through the handle.

I find it so heavy that her older sister gibson but hey, you feel a weight on the shoulder (take a jumper off preferences, I have a big thing in leather)

I have long wondered what use the Tone knobs for ... but hey we will not be reluctant

Warning: Be careful with the straps locks, Dunlop and Shaller screws have finer than those on the original lp, and the trend is towards a bar, Do not hesitate to pour a pot of glue wood and ca is (mine was almost high enough to hush because of the screw has barr). Also between the jack tends to tighten the dvisser think quite often

but other than that, this instrument is a fantastic view Aesthetics (although it is a matter of taste) is a beautiful guitar trs

SOUNDS

Well, when this achte scratches, you pay more Bestio the microphones that are on it ...
is not catastrophic but it is not so far even when the drama
In the light can be trs ca blues, warm sound, not too aggressive if you stay on the rhythm position
ds, but we force on the distal (for hard rock or metal), ... Sound is a mess with such sharp razor blade (hyper screaming) rhythms dgueulasses ... trebble about the position, I use it almost ever ... it's even worse than the rhythm position))))

I just got the DiMarzio I install it tomorrow I will say the new

added 05/09/04

then change microphones, post and view a little late

It sounds monstrous, rhythmic own, less shrill screaming, and finally all the default left the guitar in favor of a good sound, there's that for palm mute There's a diffrence or less obvious

OVERALL OPINION

Trs beautiful object, very practical, ergonomically friendly trs
but to change the pickups ...

I tried a Squier, a low-end ibanez, fender mex one and I confess I prfre even when the LP form.

I think that by changing the pickups is a good guitar and trs in this report is exellent quality price (if you have in mind the change of microphones)

Describes CHARACTERISTICS same as those by other users. Mine is brown sunburst + than Submitted photo. The mcaniques are outdated, I bought it for 150 euros OCCAZ.
The following opinion is compltement subjective. I sold to buy a Squier Telecaster and the Les Paul I amrement regret.

UTILIZATION

Trs short sleeve, big enough. Enjoyable to the touch.
The boxes are small trs, a fender compartment. poses a problem for some funky rhythms. Another big problem: according to how hard you press the strings, the note varies.
Note that the microphone is located slecteur the front top of the guitar. If a little frenzied rhythm, there are risks in changing the mic select mgarde full song is not terrible.

SOUNDS

When playing this guitar not branch, has not ring.

When the branch, it is best to avoid playing on all 6 strings at the same time, if not, is a draft.
Its clear it's not terrible, it's neither hot nor crystalline. The microphone is deaf and severe acute micro sounds like a casserole.
In saturation, it is better to play three strings at the max, otherwise it dgueulasse. The definition is fairly Proxima. In my opinion, this is a plutt guitar riffs and solos.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 2 years, I sold yesterday to buy a fender tlcaster. even when it's something else, even without a sound amplifier. we can hammer, a still. branch, a serious slap!
Basically, the Les Paul did not like (but you understand)

Hop! A tour on the site of one or more Epiphone prcis ....( too lazy) If not, it's made in China I think. Mcaniques good, the agreement is good, well finished (I have in black and she is superb), the buttons do not crachotent after a year of intensive use (home + RPTES) I am satisfied.

UTILIZATION

Unlike what I had read before buying it, I had no trouble to adapt to the handle off. On the contrary, I have trouble now plutt play when the strings are closer. CHAC is particularly acute for is to find the right position, but you get there (the more I got used to ...)
Gripe without really be a: it is super heavy. After three hours of RPET I have no shoulder! But hey, if you want the sound ...
To search for your sound, three possible position: neck pickup / bridge or two (you can make rpartition with buttons)

SOUNDS

I play in a group of post-hardcore (c a koi??) But I also play blues, blues / rock the house and is Submitted in these records. I mean it supports large distos trs well (even with the original pickups) and a lead position in a clear round in the trs on the two positions. Besides with a lightweight crunch position and rhythm, it sounds and is vintage trs mconnaissable! (As Jimi was going to say on some but I would be slapped on it ...) J'apprcie prcis much sound in the bass (with a fairly lev pulling all of the same), but ad depends also on the amp. It's the only guitar that I played (I have no jou a lot) that has held much of note (and not sustain, it is in France, shit!)

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a year and I am always satisfied even if I want to try other guitars Obviously. For the price (about 450 fdp COMRA) Thomann, I had the sound I wanted. If I were the flying, I think the other thing I would try IMMEDIATE but I Rasht an APRS is a standard (nan srieux?).

It's an old MODEL the brother of a friend I was given a drop APRS ... handle cass! Ailleux ...

It dates from 1990, the head is thinner than today (near the old gibson) and inserts the key is mother of pearl ... (Or immittance).

I entrust my luthier who rpar me pronto. For more than worries.

Made in Korea (I think ...)
2 humbucker,
Mahogany body, maple table by Raport
Channel 22 frets Mahogany neck button sticks Rosewood ...
Fixed bridge.
2 volume and 2 tone
2 pickups selector positions.

UTILIZATION

The violin is well made, comfortable handle all goes well, it's a Les Paul!

It weighs quite heavy so if you have a better standing in the scene to consider before buying.
The highs are quite accessible but it is not an Ibanez! and that's good!

It is very simple to get a good sound. Grant, plug up the sound and hop it Up!

SOUNDS

It is totally original, the humbucker pickups have a nice color is clear, ideal for blues and rock (neck position and neck + bridge).

In distortion, better avoid the trash cellar The definition is no longer an appointment, ca ca drool everywhere and whistles every 5 minutes as a concert laurie!

The knobs are down they are all flu. I did not bcp plays in recent years ...

I use a Fender Vibrolux reverb amp veil of 79, a distortion pedal to marshall drive master and multi-effects Zoom 2020.

OVERALL OPINION

It's a good guitar for anyone who wants to start with a clean slate and be able to evolve in its games. Then it will invest in a set of micro ...

all good games

First of all, you should know that c is a scraper that I use for 5-6 years.
-Corp mahogany table and Saddle
Corenne-fabrication
-22 Frets-for microphones, I have change the bridge pickup to a Seymour Duncan SH-5. As for the neck pickup, I don t change anything.
-Adjustable plastic (rusty), 3-position selector
-Rosewood

UTILIZATION

-The neck is super comfortable, I have a jou frquemment Epiphone G-400 and therefore I can assure that the handle is trs enjoyable thanks to good balance of the guitar. In most cases, I played for 1:30 hours, 2 hours and I never got tired of the paws.
Access to acute L-demand all the same to have the hand and usually for those who usually plays on the SG STRD or Stratocaster, it's going to be a big change.
-C is a guitar that PSE 4 kg, ie it is not lgre request and have right shoulder muscl.Pour aesthetic form, you d be judged according to your tastes.
-C is a guitar or it can get any sound to play according to the Manir. Finally dsl for shows but the question is connes I think.

SOUNDS

-Usually I play Guns and Roses, Zakk Wylde, Led Zeppelin, Metallica, Megadeth, Ozzy Osbourne, Pink Floyd, Aerosmith ... Well, it suits me really well I usually play except for Megadeth, for a, c is really innadapt.
-I play on a Marshall JTM 615 tt lamp (EL-34 Sovtek Marshall 83 EC), I never play with effects (the j is found not useful for what I play).
-Some would say that with the amp that I have, c is not so much the stuff of metal, but with the SH-5 Seymour Duncan, I get it its really a metal, a little vintage trs which is nice. In comparison prcise, prs Darkness resembles a "black shuk" or (depending on settings) Guns and Roses live. C is really the sound I was looking for that because we must admit that with the old pickup, the sound was gniale for the Led Zep but only has a few other faiblare.
-The sound that I prfre is that the lives pdt Slash (you will tell me that he did the same material pa but I have not the same ways that he and the closer I get the bcp's, those apprcie least that I have, however, sounds neo metal or like Kyo.

OVERALL OPINION

C is really a guitar that I love, the sound is really excellent and if you know rglages do on the guitar and your amp, you can get enormously. For anything I sell. I am happy with my purchase TRS and yet at the beginning I were a little anxious. But however, c is a guitar that request have a good habit to use. J did a scne with her face I had a j Cort and Ibanez (medium range), it is silent all connected to the same console, I was told that my sound was much better compared to the other ( notice of musicians).
However, c is true, for solo treble trs, it is super boring, but tapping it gniale.
With 10 years of guitar including five with the MODEL, I will no other choice MODEL.

Made in Asia but trs well finished.
22 boxes
2 volumes + 2 tonalitbr /> Humbucker Pickups
Pass Channel

UTILIZATION

The handle is soft and trs size enjoyable
The access to qigu is correct but for those who have small fingers after the drive box 20 coins
Good balance gneral
Great sound there not to say it sounds Les Paul ....

SOUNDS

For all that Hard Rock and Blues is OK ...
Coupled with a Marshall VS 100 R ca pte fire ....
Ith a very good overdrive sound right in the clear.
This guitar is made to rsolument pter watts, she can still stay prcise

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 7 years and I never tire of it. I think keep it for life. It is a good value guitar trs quality price. Ideal for a small budget DSIR into the legends Gibson Les Paul ...

22 frets, 2 humbucker, 2 knobs to adjust the volume and 2 tone (one for mic).
Mine has a superb finish Cherry Sunburst, but the color is more accurate because it is an opportunity that should approximate the decade.
The mechanical oil bath are well enough tuning.

UTILIZATION

I love this race, I find it quite late (it must be said that I went directly from a classical guitar with it), and convenient for the bars. Access to acute is relatively easy, but we're a little embarrassed by the shape of the guitar.

Good ergonomics, the only thing we could blame it on weight.
The guitar is quite heavy, so I advise to put the price in a good strap (not nylon webbing € 8). I myself a leather strap that I paid more than € 40, even after several hours of rehearsal, I feel nothing.
The purchase of Straplok (= system of fixing the strap on the guitar pretty convenient to use and very fast, resistant to 500 kg) shortly be wise to avoid any setback. The system is quite expensive (22 €) but relativemnt discreet.

SOUNDS

I am very happy with the sound.
I play myself mostly rock / grunge / hard rock, and the sound is perfect. This course can be adapted to any type of music or so.
On the micro j'obtient acute enough grunge sound, terrible distortion for solos with the use of a good old Boss DS1 home. How big sound!
The micro grave gives me the perfect sound for a clean as in the album "Unplugged" by Nirvana.

I use it on an old Trace Elliot amp TVT9 (80W lamp with preamp).

This guitar gives a fairly serious-based, unlike the Fender Stratocaster that sound more metallic.

OVERALL OPINION

I bought this guitar 4 years ago and since I do not spend more.
I paid only € 300, used nikel super, no complaints.
I tried the guitar for more than two weeks, but for that price, it was really the best.
I advise guitarists who want a guitar to progress.

- Limited Edition Les Paul Cherry Sunburst
- 22 frets
- 2 pots blah blah its all we know LesPaul

UTILIZATION

I have a Start and an Epiphone SG Us is the mache bin of my Les Paul is definitely one of a layer, and finally even if it's not like I find terribly enjoyable with Access in Acute beautiful
Well it is a little heavy but it is a Les Paul so it's normal .... I love this guitar good even if I want to give a neutral for those who do not bin it going not be too easy becaufe it kills this guitar ....

SOUNDS

Ohlalala sound .... sublime, as clean as that in distortion, it fits perfectly both versatility and this does not make that more attractive .... For any style of music.

OVERALL OPINION

I have this guitar for 2 years without me tired. Right behind the handle there is written that it is a limited edition and I still do not see how lol Anyway ..... Easy to play, looks great, his inimitable .... if I had the choice again I re plutt twice that! Mine is quite old so the switch treble / rhythm starts to falter but hey this limit ca change ... I highly recommend not say go it is better now than my Start but even when it kills.

Does it manufactured in the country have said that others in celebrating this party does well though described by some Peronist Paravant.
so it's not a gibson so the characteristics of a guitar, it s just not care all that it sounds no! but hey since it must be bofo compartment I put another ad 7

UTILIZATION

The handle is great but it's not a birch or a tite board must still not have the hands of 2.5cm.

Access in the acute bah ... In other words, the last fret is anecdotal in a game but hey .. The Paulien Finally we descend too far if it's a tit dog chouilla

the ergonomics bah it's heavy (it is a les paul) but after that bah I sy cheeks standing with the guitar at the knees so it can go. Personal likes j

me after I describe her bah

SOUNDS

I am playing punk, rock, hard, metal, finally all that is distorted!

I play with a marshall mg100dfx and it sounds better that my expectations, I have a Zakk Wylde wah wah and a tube factor.

the sound is big fat even if they say that the microphones are epi pouraves I find them quite apart that it lacks body and medium. but they would not put emg active at this price. Finally must love the sound, so must try several epiphone for I have tried in mag was crap and they wish taient then one day I tried one day to another to see it and it sounded VLAM 10x better than others. of the sudden I bought (cheap because it had a pete has a sudden descent of truck, the paint has a place no longer exists)

Added: done with in a few months I notice a complete change of the sound becomes a force that is rotten sy no personality used to it and it has more of a problem bound to agree

OVERALL OPINION

I've had the August and frankly it is terrible for the price, finally my price lol (300 euros ...) other models of taient esp that a cot sdonn tro weird for me to love the sound finally c That is all.
The value for money I would say that if you pay the scraper 450 is average, below it is good.
I do not know if I would do this choice, I think that I wait to pay me a Zakk Wylde but hey it's not the same price

Added: francehment wait and pay you a lag roxane is 100x better now, because it sounds, is comfortable and there are not many people who!

I possde an Epiphone Les Paul Standard bought in October 1995, made in Korea
22 frets, 2 humbuckers, 2 volume, 2 tone, the handle is al.

UTILIZATION

The handle is trs enjoyable to play, not too pais from a les paul studio for example. Acs for acute is not as easy as you can imagine, but is it the advantage of the les paul?
Trs beautiful shape, perfect finish (one seller told me that the finish rcemment n'tait not as successful on the new range Epiphone Les Paul) but a bit contrived, it is the common lot of n ' matter what the paul.

SOUNDS

I bought an era o j'tais rather a fan of Metallica and Guns'n'Roses, she silent perfect for me. Now that I'm more oriented pop / rock, it still gives me satisfaction Entire.
I used a Marshall Valvestate 8040 and a marshall Submitted MG100DFX.
The microphone is rather serious in its pretty clear, trs jazz, gives good rsultats its crunch but loses precision with large distos. The microphone is rather sharp in its garish light, it seems that it is rather built for distortion and it gives good rsultats trs. Only default: high volume and high rate of distortion, a feedback goes, we must lower the volume knobs and Tone.
I love the position intermdiaire in its clear or crunch, it is perfect for the game arpges.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 10 years and the Luter did not move it sounds like the first day.
Even if I bought it to play j'apprcie saturated today's increasingly clear sounds and crunch (even if I think buying a telecaster in order to broaden my range of sounds that level).
I had paid the era 2700ff (around 410), knowing that c'tait a promo (in other stores, the same coutait 3200ff).
It's a versatile guitar trs as we do not play in extreme styles, so trs qualitprix good value (especially when you see the finish of the box). For the problem of feedback, it seems, the view from the view of some, that the drying of micro would cope. So a guitar evolution, I think it's a choice I would do without hsiter.

It is a Les Paul Standard Epiphone factory in Korea in April 96, in the Samick factory prcisement.
For rglages is the classic in classic LP What a ...
Level violin, it has nothing to do with the new MODELS, is the solid wood, not the PC ...
Other features, it is a MODEL with a handle screwed! This is the deuxime I see as ... (The other drive G.com silent and out of the factory also Samick in 96 ...)

UTILIZATION

The handle is nice, but you have to like tuning forks 24'75 sleeves and big enough ...
It has 22 frets and usability of an LP ...
CHAC is quite acute in nazes, like a real LP ...

SOUNDS

I bought this to replace my Ibanez scratches which had had its day ...
Good as it's totally DIFFERENT guitar, but my LP is IDAL, I love their weight (a heavy guitar !!!), enjoyable their sleeve ...
I play on a Marshall DSL100 or a Marshall8008/Vamp PRO Rack and effects, I use a TC M300 for rverbes, delays, chorus, and compressor and a CryBaby.
Overall, the sound is rock ... Crunches are nice, the cleans are more friendly than those of the EMG of my EC-1000.
But hey, these microphones do not suit me too: Much too fat, low dgueulent everywhere, the treble do not show ... Impossible to have large distos!
And in addition, ca larsen block!
In short, if you do rock, do oeut ca ...

I asked him a Gibson 500T DiMarzio PAF PRO and this t. .. his violin on MRIT ...

OVERALL OPINION

I've had just a month ...
I really like the scratches, I find this really beautiful and mythical form suits me perfectly!
Having tried many guitars in recent times ... I really wanted to find an LP as a secondary scratch (I have a EC-1000 is truly a beautiful guitar ...)
Having bought 275 of occas', I think it's a good price given as the violin (the guitar was unchanged in 10 years), more fittings is new! !
I would do this choice, an Epi is not so bad in complment ... especially the old ...
With good microphones, it will be really good potential this guitar ...

on the other hand, Straplock requires ... because if you qye falls on the foot, it can hurt! (Almost 5 kg)

Everything is aprfait by the microphones to lower quality but is in detail and to prices you have a real gibson United States in the hands ...

UTILIZATION

I have been playing around with this guitar is perfect I find myself a little vibrato would have been welcome to my solos ... hihihi Anyway it's a Les Paul.

SOUNDS

Microphones microphones always good but it still gives a good sound for rock blues and even the heavy but not extreme.

OVERALL OPINION

Utilistation: last month
super form and is a perfect gibson the only diference is the microphones and the name written on the top of the neck ... must put humbukers gibson and you have a gibson les paul in the hands

- Les paul shape guitar (epiphone as the odds are the same as for gibson)
- 2 humbucker then 2 volumes and 2 tone pots
- A selector 3-position toggle
- 22 cargo, the handle is flat

UTILIZATION

The neck is not easy to play when you're not used to this kind of innings, or when you are beginner. Access to acute is not at all easy (bah what is a normal les paul). Rather heavy, it's a good guitar for beginners fan of Jimmy Page and others deemed to paul ...

SOUNDS

I bought it being still in my infancy. This is my second guitar after a Squier Start, so inevitably, I found it sounded much better, being at that time a huge fan of Led Zep. The pickups have some fishing, but all the same sound fat. I have since changed for PRS McCarthy that sound much better, great fishing, vintage and hot, their output level is so high that they arrive at a clear set cruncher at high volume. Otherwise, to play Led Zep, the foot (McCarthy is the engineers at gisbon that developed in the les paul ...)

OVERALL OPINION

I still use it, but I plan to buy a Start able to change style of play and register because it's not really the strong point of this guitar. To begin, it is a good investment because of its proper violin that allows it to evolve.

My date of 1995 epiphone, the body is one piece mahogany, with mahogany set neck and rosewood in touch.
The mechanical types are Grover.
Tal perfect varnish.
It was built in t core.
The pickups are the legendary home epiphone stews.

UTILIZATION

The mechanisms are very mean, they never really tennu the agreement.
I was satisfied with the microphones at the beginning.
The violin is very good against.
It is heavy and access to acute biensur is difficult.
The knobs are blah, the problem is that the sound is good only if they are over 10, any decrease in the volume or Tone on one or other of the microphones frankly alters the sound.

SOUNDS

With the original pickups, the sound is worth the price of the guitar, very good for a beginner or an amateur looking too.
However the neck pickup can show a lot of subtle overdrive with lgre.
In general it is not the top but ... it is quite acceptable!

I changed the bridge pickup for a seymour Dunca SH6 distortion, and frankly depot ca! That said, Was that good sense?
After reflection, no ... the les paul is very nervous and the sound of the SD is the rich, powerful, precise, peevish, but ... it would be better on another guitar!

Now it is on the les paul is not a guitar for rock or thrash extreme.
these styles were a bit like the sound does not "come out" of the guitar, it's brid ... so much more bluesy up microphones and subtle, comfortable in the overdrive and distortion.
microphones rather intended to be so large saturation rather, in my opinion, undesirable.

I just ride my SD SH6 on my epiphone SG G400, the ca frankly the fact! the guitar seems more adapted such microphones, more nervous and more direct what ... Finally, that's another story!

so I then replaced the pickups with gibson HBR HBL and split ... ca and kills!
Regleg in a small luthier lz for the handle and the tune o matic and presto! guitar kills!

frankly the ca emerges, the sound is rich, beautiful, powerful, guitar and let live!

in splitter, then it's crazy! Imagine a simple micro les paul ... incongruous? Well think you can be is the is the best!

I put 10/10 after changing pickups

OVERALL OPINION

A good guitar for beginners, develop with pleasure!
the change of micro mechanical and will make outstanding guitar!
about the microphones, make the right choice and remember that this guitar is not for the thrash!
(Of violin making Epiphone mid 90's is he seems much better than the epi early 2000's, if you buy OCCAZ rather take an "old" epi)
