Epiphone's long friendship with Mr. Les Paul began in 1940 when Les built one of the world's first solid body electric guitars while working nights at the original Epiphone factory in Manhattan. Les' first solid body guitar, nicknamed "the Log," would go on to inspire the Les Paul Standard, which many consider the greatest electric guitar ever made.

Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
Just bought this guitar in Cherry Sunburst. Fabulous guitar. For $700 this guitar is amazing. Look, feel & sound is top notch. Flame on the body is a real eye catcher. Set up was so so. I applied my favorite strings Daddario NYXL 9-42, lowered the action & I am in Les Paul heaven. I also bought a Epiphone hardshell case because this guitar deserves it. This experience was one of my best with zZounds. My thanks to Epiphone/Gibson & zZounds.
