The Epiphone Les Paul Performance Pack is a fantastic way to begin playing guitar, produced by one of the most trusted names in the industry. The Performance Pack includes everything you need to start, backed by the design knowhow of Epiphone.

The Epiphone Les Paul Performance Pack: About the Les Paul Special II

The Epiphone Les Paul Performance Pack is built around the Epiphone Les Paul Special II - a fine guitar, and a great way to introduce beginners to the historical importance of the Les Paul tone. Though many music fans most closely associate the Les Paul with the players that made it so famous - arguably, the most popular are Jimmy Page and Slash - the Gibson Les Paul has been used in a vast span of musical endeavors, ranging from metal and punk to blues and jazz. The key ingredient to its sound has always been its dual humbucking pickups, which offer a great full-bodied tone. Of course, these guitars are also prohibitively expensive for beginners - which makes the Epiphone Les Paul Special II a great choice. Epiphone is a sub-brand of Gibson which offers affordably built versions of many of the world's most popular guitars. Their Special II model includes many of the features that define the Les Paul - the familiar body shape, a pair of humbuckers, a mahogany neck - and is a great playing guitar for beginners.

The Epiphone Les Paul Performance Pack: Rounding Out the Package

If all that was included with the Epiphone Les Paul Performance Pack was the guitar, it wouldn't be much use to anybody beginning to play guitar - what about the amp, the cables, the accessories? Thankfully, Epiphone came through here, including a solid 15-watt Studio 15R practice amp and everything else necessary to play. The Performance Pack's Studio 15R offers overdrive and reverb, to allow players to begin experimenting with their tone. It's also got a headphone jack for silent practice when necessary.

The Epiphone Les Paul Performance Pack also has your accessory bases covered, with:

-A cable to connect your guitar to the amp
-A strap so you can play standing up
-A few picks, to make playing easier
-A quartz tuner, to keep your guitar in tune and sounding good
-A gig bag to make transporting your guitar simple
-An instructional DVD, so you can learn how to use your guitar's features

With everything necessary to commence rocking, the Epiphone Les Paul Performance Pack is a fantastic choice for all types of beginning guitarists. zZounds is an authorized dealer of Epiphone products.

"Buy from ZZOUNDS. They are competitive on their prices, their customer service is very good, shipping on time and the products t"
Sound: It's just not a top of the line guitar.... you get what you pay for. BUT, for a beginner type guitar, it sounds pretty good. Feature: Came in a package with amp, cord, etc. So all in all it's pretty good. Ease of Use: Again, this is a basic electric guitar. It does some things more expensive guitars do and the sound is good, but in the long run it is what it is. Quality: It was made very well. Nice finish, fit and no blemishes. It seems like it will be dependable for a long time....if it's taken care of. Value: To buy a guitar of this quality in a package like this was a great buy. Manufacturer Support: Not sure yet as it's new at Xmas. You should put N/A for new purchases in your menu box for us newbies. The Wow Factor: Just a practical addition to what I already have. It's a good looking guitar though. Overall: I've been playing over a year now, with lessons. I have an Ibanez accoustic and I wanted to supplement my playing with electric. I'll use these 'til I wear them out and move on. Right now, both help me with my goals to improve and as time goes on I could possibly see myself upgrading. But in my busy life, that may be awhile.

1. We offer the most flexible payment plans in the biz

zZounds offers a number of different installment payment plans that make it affordable and convenient for you to get the gear you really want today, without racking up risky credit card debt.

Other stores offer house credit cards that require you to fill out an application and pass a credit check--and, if you qualify, leave you vulnerable to exorbitant interest charges once the initial promotional period ends. zZounds payment plans are easy to get and simple to use; plus we'll never charge you interest!

2. We guarantee the lowest price

If we don't already have the lowest price, just send us a link to any legitimate competitor's offer, and we'll beat their price as long as we're not losing money on the deal.

To submit a request for a lower price, click "Seen it for less?" on any product page. We answer most lowest price requests within two hours. For extra peace of mind, you also have 30 days after your purchase to find a lower price; if you do, we'll refund the difference.

5. Our customer service is consistently rated the best

zZounds customer service is consistently rated at or near the top on every major comparison shopping website--probably because we only hire experienced musicians with outstanding customer service skills to work in our call center, and they don't work on commission. To us, this is our most meaningful measure of success. zZounds has served over a million customers since 1996, and they're the only critics whose reviews really matter to us.
