Its a glued neck one

Intacepta- I am getting them something nice .....might even play them a tune if their lucky lol



It does sound amazing- These things must be one of the best bargain buys around


I reckon they payed around 400 squid for it and it is amazing quality for the money(obviously its not cheap- but when you compare it tomany other guitars it is still a really resonable price)

ive only ever playeed 1 of them and it was a few k :!



Nowhere near that mate- you are thinking of the vintage gibson les pauls

This is regarded as being virtually the same quality of sound and build at half the price

All the parts are gibson les paul but it is assembled by epiphone


I lloked a few months ago and they were around 600 squid- amp would have been around 150

Certainly more than i could have afforded on a guitar anyway



One day i will own a classic Les paul- this is the next best thing:thumbs:


musta been a classic. Definately wasnt epiphone neway

Been wanting one of these for ages but couldnt justify spending the money-


Have been making do with this crappy yamaha for ages and yesterday i jokingly suggested to my mum that she should get me a Les Paul guitar for xmass---when i came home today i found this sat in my bedroom:!:!:!:!













Still cant believe it is sat in my bedroom- apparently she got a deal for it being a shop floor model but it still wouldnt be cheap


Hasnt made me any better, but at least I look the part
