I use this guitar through a Harely Benton 40 W amp (model is made for Thomann.de in China). I plan to put a heavier gauge of strings maybe 10's the set up was excellent but the strings seem to be 9's very light. Comparres well to my Gretscg pro Jet but my Telecaster & Strat are better built

Very utilaterian I like this three pick up selections. Tuners are grover and keep the guitar in tune. I was surpeised that it came with such good tuners.

The clean sound is very jazzy, nice and bright with the neck pick up, middle position very reponsive and the bridge pick up nice and trebly. All and all very good clean sound. On gain this guitar is very nice and heavy on sound, the sustain is excellent, if you use the neck pup you get a lovely sweet blues feel. Middle excelent you can roll off the tone for either pup and experiment, you get some good sounds. Bridge pick up is very responsive to gain you get this really amazing screaming beast lead lines. I'm very impressed with the pup's very easy to get the sounds that I want

There is a belmish on the nect seems that aroung the 7th fret the nect was slightly thicker. Not very noticable does not effect playing but questionable quality control. Besides this I would say for the money what do you expect I wanted to see what a Les Paul was like I would like to buy a more expensive one some day Which I will, it will be another epiphone

Excellent value for the buc compares very well to other product, very fast neck

Oh man let me tell you, no matter what kind of music you're into, you wont have a problem play it on this guitar. From heavy to punk to classic rock and all the way to country, you'll be able to play it.

Well there's not much features to talk about, but why dose that matter with a guitar like this?

My god the sound of this guitar is amazing I was blown away when I first pluged this thing in. And as far as the ease of this guitar, if your used to Les Paul you wont have any problems. And if your not used to the Les Paul feel it may take some time to get used to a guitar this powerful.

Well the Les Paul Studio is pretty much the same as the standard but just a little toned down in the looks department but that dose not mean the les paul studio isn't good looking. The shine and the finsh on this guitar well have all your friends green with envy.

You cant give the value one this guitar lower then a 10. I mean a Les Paul for $300. You cant beat it.

Epiphone is one of the best guitar companys out there. They are very close to the Gibson company and they can help you with any problem you might have.

The only way you could egnore this guitar is if you were blind. This guitar is one of the most beautiful guitar my eyes have ever hade the privilege to look at.

Classic Les Paul without the Gibson price tag.

Mine came without a case.

Set kneck, flawless finish, great action. If you can live without the Gibson name taking pride of place (and costing lots of bucks) then I defy you to tell the difference at a gig.

There are few around that are better value at the price.

Epiphone - that's Chinese for Gibson anyway. You get the same service from the same people. What more could you ask for?

From an aesthetic perspective, I can live without the binding. Mine is wine red - and an excellent vintage it is!

Rock and jazz

Classic Les Paul sound, warm feeling, great tone. A great axe for the money.

Includes a guitar-to-amp cord. Not the highest quality, but how many guitars even bother to include that? Also an allen wrench for adjusting the neck (hint: probably not a good idea to do this yourself unless you are experienced). I gave it an 8 because I switched out the black control knobs for some gold-rose knobs I got on-line, they fit the heritage cherry sunburst finish perfectly, like an old Les Paul. The black knobs were OK, it's just that the gold ones are more vintage Les Paul. Otherwise, no problems unless you prefer other pickups, which can also be purchased on-line for about $25 each.

If you know how to handle a Les Paul, this one responds in kind. From fat and sassy to bright and cheery, it does it all.

A 10 for the money ($300...it's a B-stock, although I can't find any blemishes whatsoever). The finish is flawless. Sure, you could have top of the line pickups and tuning machines, but then you're looking at $1,000 or more.

What more can I say? For 3 bills, it's the best I've ever seen...Yeah, yeah, when I was a kid in the 60's you could buy a Gibson Les Paul for $300, but hey, we're not in the 60's anymore!

If your into looks for your guitar, this one is OK...the finish is perfect...but if you want "Gibson" on the headstock, buy a Gibson. Personally, I love it.

The sound on this guitar can make you feel like never stop playing. Im never going to sell this guitar it makes you appreciate what youve spent the money on.I love playing dashboard confessional and metallica,nirvana, and lots of punk rock bands its great stuff and this guitar can give you this quality of sound.Its not the oonly one the gibson i owe is as good and as beatifull. An Epiphone guitar is probably in between a Gibson and a PRS(Paul Reed Smith) if you have $3,999 buy a Prs if you want a guitar that is beatiful and sounds great buy an epiphone gibson have nice and beatiful styles.

this guitar is a complete guitar and its very beatiful,it has everything you need for this price.

ONCE I SAW THIS GUITAR I KNEW IT HAD TO BE THE ONE AND IT IS THE ONE I PLAY MOST FREQUENTLY.

FOR ITS PRICE ITS A GREAT GUITAR IT IS BEATIFUL.

EVERY TIME I SEE THIS GUITAR I FEEL LIKE PLAYING FOR HOURS I FEEL LIKE JUST MAKING UP SONGS AND BE FAMOUSE WITH IT.
