  • Even though its epiphone its still expenssssssive

  • Please tell me the name on that awsome song!!

  • dr epiphone has been hanging out with dr feelgood again....

  • I really love all that signature stuff, but seriously? I don't wanna buy any signature stuff, only for fun. It would never be a serious guitar because it's expensive and then it's not your own. It's never gonna be your own when it's a signature. I think people should be their own guitarists not pretenders. Even though buying a signature doesn't necessarily make you a pretender, you surely will be more your own with a non-signature one.

  • dr. epihpone makes this so taky

  • @DoMinC246 STFU you hippy little fuck. epifone is the man you prick but you just a little cunt so you wont see GET OFF

  • @angelite143 okay thanks

  • Randy Backman that sell millions of record used an Epiphone Slash Goltop at the half time show of the football Grey cup Final.

  • slash - " .... i had that goldtop all through the use your illusion song like estranged, november rain, sweet child o'mine....."

    Well he use a gibson goldtop not an epiphone goldtop, that was an inappropriate quote to advertise this product.

  • i think this is one of the best epi Les Pauls- I Have a Epiphone Les Paul Limited edition Custom thing- But this is cool

  • MONSTER sustain...... :P

  • @SuperSlash1996 Same here. I think I`ll go for the Epiphones LP 1959 Reissue. Some will know why.

  • @SparcoC4 i thought that costed alot as well :P

  • @nine9live5 That is why i didnt get it on ebay. =[

  • @nine9live5 yea it does cost a lot even if it is on ebay or an epiphone model

  • @SuperSlash1996 if you take a job like 6 hours a day in 1 week, in a norwegian resturant you got that guitar! he he the smallest salery there is like 20dollar a hour...

  • @SuperSlash1996 Maybe slash will buy us all one of those

  • The guitar is very good..

    So Go For The Gold:)

  • i wana go for the gold :(

  • just orderd it ots awsome lol:D

  • i really don't get it..why put a pickguard just on the Epiphone model? why not make the guitar without it? the gibson model doesn't have it and in my opinion its a lot better!

  • lol thats true but u can just take the pickgurd off if u dnt lyk it lol

  • yeah its really easy and actually looks alot better bacause in my opinion when they were designing the guitar they made it great then went oh shit we forgot the pickgaurd so just took a bit of plastic out of a bin and screwed it on

  • I toook it off, it's soooo better

  • lol yea! much better! they should stop making pickguards! it should be optional!

  • @slashthebestone yeah i got 1 on lay by and the 1st thing im gonna do is take the pick gaurd off

  • @dam097 that's what i did, it looks 1000000000000x sexier :)

  • song name!?!?!

  • Just my opinion. Not jealous.

  • just orderd one!!!!

  • @phildrummer1 where did you ordered?

  • i have a epiphone les paul red and orange sunberst

  • SLASH BABY!!!!!! YEAH!!!!!!!

  • i played the exact guitar but it was a classic epiphone not a slash one and it sounds nicer the slash one is cool and its not as gold as it is in this video

  • In my opinion, this guitar didnt amazed me.

    I played it at Guitar Center, and its a little hard to play, the color is not the gold that you expect, and when u play it the sound is like weak.

    I love my Les Paul Custom over this, and also the standard is better sounding that this guitar.

    This is just my opinion

  • Comment removed

  • When is the release date for this? I'm getting one!!!

  • Sorry to say this, but they've been out for a year. There was only a limited amount made, and I doubt there are any left.

    Sorry, dude :-(

  • No, there's still a lot of them :P (even in Argentina)

  • i got mine over the summer at best buy. theyre fucking amazing.... sorry axltyler

  • A Les Paul? At Best Buy???

  • yeah dude the best buy about 45 mins from ym house has a music section with like fuckin all kinds of instruments up the wazzoo. there has to be about 1500 guitars/basses on the wall. i love that place. ill upload a video probly of how amazing that place is

  • then you must live about 45 minutes away from the awesomest Best Buy ever, because the one in my town sucks!

  • its been out for over a year & a half

  • dr epiphone is kinda a retard.......

  • im getting a classic goldtop & this slash one is 1000 euro & the les paul classic is 469 euro & the only difference is that the other one has slash's name on it

  • no it's not! i think that pickups are different on that model and the neck is not thinner. and in basics Slash guitar is much more of a value if u wanna sell it later ;)

  • You're wrong. The Slash Gold Top comes with 2 Seymour Duncan Alnico Pro II pickups, Nickel Hardware, Long Tenon, premium grade maple top, it's HANDCRAFTED, better tuners, tailpiece and stopbar!

  • Is there a difference between the Tobacco burst one and this other than the paint job?

  • nnnoooo

  • nope

  • well ive played just bout evry slash signature guitars at gc and by far his gibson goldtop kick ass. the epiphone version is kinda shitty. ud b better off with the ZW les paul. lots of sustain (Only thing that can b compard 2 a gibson plus p-ups) then p-ups r da only thing good beside the neck profile and the finish. gibson-round 3500-3800. Guitars i own. 74 G LP, 57 G Goldtop LP, Steve Vai I Jem, Zakk Wylde LPCustom with emg 81 & 85 with spare gibson headstock put on! (Found it!!! Lucky)

  • whats a ZW les paul.

  • Its a Zack Wylde Les paul, usually with the black and white cirlces going outward, nice looking guitars they are ;)

  • zakk wylde les paul

  • I got a guitar that's almost the same as this one. The Epiphone les paul '56Goldtop. The difference is the pickups.

    The '56 goldtop comes with p90 "soapbar" pickups which sounds great.

  • How much does this cost now?

  • 1000.

  • Thanks.

  • you konw whats cool i justt got the gibson goldtop so now i have the epiphone & the gibson goldtop

  • that is pretty cool, how much did the gibson cost yah?

  • How much better is the gibson?

  • Comment removed

  • got one, love it, checkout my scom cover video.

  • ya im getting 1 this weekend and u can take of the pick gard but u'll be left with 2 small holes

    Ps dont loose the screws

  • in videos of gnr from 8;s when they do a close up his has the two holes so its even more realistic with the holes

  • Can you take a pick guard off?

    ps

    I want that so bad!!!!

  • yes you can take the pickguard because i took my off I love this guitar!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • yes you can take it off

    i really recommend this guitar

  • i've never owned a guitar with a pickguard. why do people want to take it off?

  • it ruins the style, thats what they think. on the strat it looks perfectly normal and goes with it. on a les paul, it doesnt go with it. so its mostly for looks.

  • The pickguard for the lespaul sorta gets in the way.. lol

  • yea you can just get 2 screws that fit the holes but before paint them the excact gold

  • Played this at GC and its a sweet axe right out of the box, they also had the Gibson Slash , same guitar.

  • i'm getting thsi gutiar soon at a music store near my house..can't wait

  • sweet dude, I have it, ITS TOTALLY worth getting...

  • is the top a veneer,or a real maple top?

  • just bought this guitar the other day. and it plays like a dream. #0954/2000

  • i went to guitar center saterday to get the epiphone les paul standard, and then i saw this guitar i asked them to get it down so i could play it. as soon as i started playing i fell in love, and for the people that are wondering is it as good as a gibson i would say yes because it was hand crafted with the same wood different color though. but i cant tell you how good it sounds you will have to go to a guitar store and play it for yourself

  • gibson's better but with slash playing the guitar it can't be that bad can it?

  • I played this at guitar center and loved it.

    Getting one.

  • I am a all time guns n roses fan but i tries this guitar out at guitarcenter hoping it would be amazing. I was badly disappointed when i played it first of all it was really hard to play and not as great sustain as the les paul standard epiphone. Not only this but it is one grand. One grand for a korean made epiphone is such a rip off. With that money u could buy a gibson sg specail or spend fifty bucks more and get a gibson les paul studio. It just cost so much because it says slash on it. ripp

  • i got the china hand crafted one and it has alot of sustain. before i bought this guitar i actualy compair it to the standard. me and my friend played the 15 fret on the high e string at the same time and the gold top went almost twice as long, so maybe the korean made one is not hand crafted.

  • I'm so excited I just won this guitar in the video voting contest.

  • can anyone tell me if the gibson usa model is really so much better than the epiphone...because it's much cheaper and i read in mags before that the differences between the original gibson and the epiphone aren't so big...need your help please

  • trust me ..personally i dont think this is a good guitar,,i tried it out at guitar center and it was pretty light and felt kinda cheap..it was a hard to play..idk if it was played to much or if it was just the one i played but i wuldnt recommend it

  • i own this guitar and its amazing to play, well for me anyways i love it, favorite guitar i own right now

  • Oh yeah, put one on hold and gettin' it tomorrow =D

  • i wish i had it.

  • oh today i went to a guitar store and there epiphone gold top is 700 bucks =) i'm goign 2 get

  • how much is this?

    plz give link

  • this guitar in epiphone version is 999.99$

    in gibson version its 2199.99$

    (U.S.)

  • $999 dollars b4 tax after tax 1,000 + dollars

  • GRACIAS GRACIAS , TODO UN HONOR,.

  • how much is the gold top, and ho mch is the regular?

  • They're pretty much the same price about $800-900.

  • Can anyone tell me if there is any difference (except for the finish) between this and the other Slash Epiphone that I bought this year. The Plus top or whatever it's called... cheers

  • none. Just the look.

  • sarà miaaaaaaa

  • I've had tons of Epiphones and the are really good guitars, but I got a little more serious, mature and richer so I bought a Gibson and I can tell you that "I" like it alot more for the extra $. I find this guitar looks cheap id you compare it to the Gibson. I hate the fact that they put that damn ugly pick guard on.

  • u can take it off if u like

  • ya but then you're left with 2 ugly holes. Gibson gives you a pickguard but you decide whether or not you want it on.

  • i played this guitar and it is better then most gibsons except the $3000 +

  • Damn i realy want a Epiphone les paul since i cant afford a Gibson.. And Slash signature would just make it even better.. and btw Slash rocks!

  • damn i wish i had known they were going to come out with a goldtop version, i bought the original epiphone slash custom.

  • i did the same thing

    i love the first epiphone but i wish i got the goldtop instead goldtops are awesome

  • The guitar will be out in november :(

  • wheres the guitar i did not find it on in guitar center online or any online places......its october 7 7:40 pm

  • Only 4 hours before this guitar goes out :P

  • OMG THAT GUYS VOICE...

  • how much does this thing cost?

  • $999

  • damn thats a rip off i would not buy that

  • even though $999 dollars is expensive the gibson version is like three times that

  • I got my GIBSON Les Paul Studio at the same price..

  • If your gonna paint it gold, why fuck up good mahogany.

  • solo mahogony body: the way he says that hahahah

  • He sais solid mahogny body, not solo

  • Iv ordered it, i live in Paris :p

  • the finish is uglyyyyy and a slash les paul shouldnt have a pickguard. and for those of you who want a les paul with a pickguard just put one on its not that hard

  • Its a lot easier to take a PG off then to put one on

  • This is new, there is ONE thing on this that i like better than the Gibson USA goldtop.... not only the price, but the PickGaurd, i don't like les pauls that dont have pickgaurds, well im of to Gibson. com!:D

  • Epiphone guitars are actully really good,i have epiphone elite sunburst and the tone and sound are amazing. The feel of it was amazing felt like a true les paul had the same type of wood as a gibson, same humbuckers and grover tuners I also have a gibson Premium Plus with is also a damn good guitar. Its the real deal ILOVETHISGUITAR but it cost me over 3000 But its a gibson.

    -Overall an Epiphone either makes crap guitars or great guitars gibson=just great Iam going for the epiphone slash gold

  • has anybody else noticed that dr. epiphone is insane in all of these videos?

  • Yeah, hes awesome!

  • Yep he comes jumping out of his mobile meth lab and freaks the whole thing out. I really hate the way he over-dramatizes it. He makes it feel fake worse than he realizes!

    Like trying to hype a kid up for a new toy.

  • i noticed that to its pretty funny

  • this was added yesterday and already has like almost 800 views

  • made in china mmm sh...t

  • the gibson is waaay better than the epiphone but epiphone is actually great if you cant afford gibsons but thats just me. if i had the option between a gibson and an epiphone it deffinetly would be the gibson

  • Lol WHY is it better?

  • Well lets see:

    Better wood quality, better craftsmanship at the factory, better bridge and tailpiece setup, real nitrocellulose finish, better grade tuning machines, one piece Mahogany neck, 2 piece mahogany back.

  • with this guitar iits the same thing just that gibson send the stuff to china to make it and the same style to make it. But IT ONLY ON THIS GUITAR AND ELITE FOR EPIPHONE.

    THATS WHY ITS LIMITED EDITION...also the epiphone comes with a autograph of slash but if you have money gor for gibson...

  • if ThieleM replied that to u then thats y if he didnt reply it to u then read it

  • I hope they sorta use the same effect as the robot guitar. Which means they:

    ~They release a thousand or two "limmited edition"models to see what the public thinks.

    ~If they like it they will make more.

    ~And then you can find it in a Guitar Center or Authorized Epiphone dealer near you. I'm Crossing my fingers....
