@NOodleFISH72 Yes, it's quite a heavy guitar. So's my 6-string Epi, by the way. Heavier than a real Gibson. That's generally a sign of cheaper grade mahogany, but not necessarily bad for tone.
If you want a heavy guitar, try an Ibanez S7320 or S7420. My S7320 is really heavy, the heaviest guitar I have, despite the slim body. Combination of the heavy mahogany and the bulky tremolo system, I suppose.
Amazing playing - just blending perfectly with the background track. I listened to it without watching the video and I could not tell if it's youtube jamming or a CD playing on my stereo.
Do you play in a band? Do you have a myspace account with any original songs?
@mateinegriu Thanks. I'm not in a band currently. I can't post links in comments, but my Myspace page is listed on my profile page here. On my Myspace page you can also find a link to my SoundClick page, where there's over 100 recordings, both original songs and jams.
Awesome soulful playing and awesome guitar. Really want one of these! Was your backing track inspired by 'The Dark Discovery' by Evergrey by any chance? Reminds me quite a lot of some parts of that album!
@masterlowsferatu Thanks. I didn't make the backing track though. Check out the channel of alberthouwaart. He made the backing, and also uploaded a video of himself jamming on this track. You'd have to ask him what his inspiration was.
I actually just bought this same exact guitar off of Ebay. Have you noticed a problem getting to the high notes just due to bulk on the heel of the neck? I guess it's just something to get used to. Used to playing an Epiphone Goth Explorer for 6 years with a super fast neck to get to those high notes.
Well, I've been playing Les Pauls for about 13 years now, I think... so I didn't have any trouble adjusting to this one, feels pretty much the same as a 6-string.
Yes its bit clumsy...I got mine a month ago...I put some Di Marzio Evos in and ALL is forgiven...its PURE SONIC HEAVEN now. Its by a mile the best 7 I've ever played, with or without effects. This guitar/PUP combo will equal or shame the megabucks rigs for versatility......has superb build quality and the tone is sublime. If you can live without a trem you won't find a better partner than this baby....IF you can find one !!!
So long to floating trems and dare I say it....Ibanez !! SIMPLES !!
Great playing!! Who made the 7 string Les Paul your playing?? That's the first time I have seen anyone do that... Is it built to Les Paul specs? Maple top, Mahogany body and neck? Sweet looking and sounds great!!
Hi, I am really interested in making an order for custom 7 string guitar. I am thinking about les paul look. Please, can you take a short movie, where we can see that instrument full size? Or maby, you can send me some pictures :) ?
didn't use the low B..=/

Would you say the body of that guitar has some weight with it. Most Epiphones don't and I like heavy guitars, but I also like 7 string guitars.

Sorry, didn't see the info at the top... Epiphone. Cool... Your playing is really great, love the "feel" you put into your playing!!
wlfgnggtr 2 years ago
Thanks!
And yea, it's a limited edition that Epiphone made in 2000. They also made a 7-string Flying V back then.
As far as I know, it's all Les Paul specs (maple top, Mahogany body and neck), the only difference being the extra string.

Yes, the backing was made by Albert Houwaart, aka Appie X.
This is a video response to his original video on this backing.
