wow I love the sound of your guitar good job!!!

[SvenSlowfinger]

Thanks!

Yeah, I really like this guitar a lot. The best guitar I ever had; better than the three Gibsons I had before.

As told before it's Made in Unsung Korea 2003.

Too bad I seldom play or visit YouTube nowadays.

ahh, i was looking at some epiphone les pauls yesterday, im looking into buying an electric guitar (ive been playing accoustic for several years and im hoping to branch out and play stuff i can relate to) i was especially looking at an Epiphone Les Paul custom, it was white.

I am open to paying as much as 700 dollars if it will get me something that can last and that will sound awesome. what are your opinions on what type of guitar i should get, and if id be better off with a "real" les paul?

[SvenSlowfinger]

My advice is an Epi LP made in Korea, Unsung or Saien 1998-2008. Serial numbers begin with U and I.

I'd be careful, and probably not buy a Chinese one. Many agree that they are generally a lower brand and sloppy crafted.

Since Korea Epis are underrated youll get a mint one for 250-600, no need to buy a worn out one!

For $700 you'll likely only get second-rate Gibson LP Std. A top Epi is better.

My LP is a U 2003, the best guitar I ever had. Play before buy, there come dogs from any plant.

thank you for the advice ;)

where would the serial number be?

[SvenSlowfinger]

The serial number is on the back of the headstock on the most guitars.

On Gibson and Epiphone the serial number tells where and when the guitar was made.

@samnninty wow I thought it was awesome

[MrMuddymilton]

Please, can you tell me where can I get  the backing track? Thank you very much.

Not hearing any vibrato....

[EuropeFactor]

Don't really agree with you there. All of the Japanese or Korean made 'Les Paul' type guitars I've owned or played, had much superior craftsmanship, feel and playability than USA made Gibsons I've had, without exception.

[samnninty]

sounds so distorted!

not good mate

tone has to be crystal clean for this

[Fr3derick]

Awesome!!!

[rockstarmyles]

that ending was fucking beautifull

[beauadams1]

get a lightly used gibson les paul studio or faded on ebay, much much better qulity than an epiphone, if you dont think there is a difference in qulity then go to guitar center or somewhere and play both s
