Epiphone Les Paul Custom Customer Review

Overall: 4 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
I don't expect to ever get rid of it, but I might get another for tinkering.
Sound
Sounds like an LP. Fat, thick, chunky, lots of sustain. Excellent for rock and blues, probably excellent for metal though that's not really my style.
Features
Fine out of the box, though most people replace the pickups as with pretty much any guitar. Worth replacing the nut, but otherwise the guitar is solid.
Ease of Use
Very playable.
Quality
No loose parts, nothing shaky. The nut is worth replacing with graphite or bone, everything else will last.
Value
Costs what it's worth.
Manufacturer Support
n/a, no need yet.
The Wow Factor
I wanted a heritage cherry sunburst LP since I first saw one about a dozen years ago. Now I've had one for over a year and I still love it.
