Value For Money : Excellent
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.
