    Thank you so, so much for making this video comparing the different types of Les Paul's. I've seen so many different types and had no clue, thank you!!

    Great video. I recently got an Epiphone Les Paul Custom. It was a really good price and the 'Tuxedo' look, ebony fretboard and CTS pots really sold it to me. Sounds amazing too! Not a huge fan of Indian laurel. The only other non-signature model that has an ebony fretboard is the Les Paul Modern. They have weight relief and coil splitting too. All the best.

    Excellent way of explaining the Epi line of Les Paul's--appreciated! We had a new faded 2018 Gibson Les Paul and it was studio grade perfect out of the box(well,it had a dry fretboard). When Epiphone re-shaped the new style head stock on the Les Pauls,we ordered a black custom. Pristine,perfect QC..amazing instrument. We added the same stock Gibson pups to the Epiphone and...we sold the Gibson. We fell in love with a Chinese neck;that guitar plays itself,it's so perfect. Salute from ATX

    Which guitar would have the lower output..for more warm clean jazz tones? thanks. great great video

  • @therandom802
    @therandom802 Před měsícem +2

    I’ve had the black custom for almost a year. It’s the cheapest guitar I own, yet still gets played at least once a week. Amazing craftsmanship (on mine at least), and surprisingly easy to play despite the gloss neck. It’s going to be in my collection for a while.

  • @ThunderousNinja
    @ThunderousNinja Před 7 měsíci +2

    Custom is so comfortable and reasonable. I fell in love with it at a GC. Im gonna order one but im sooo torn about the color. I love both. I get pressure not to do the white tuxedo.

    I have the Sweetwater Epi Blueberry fade Les Paul Modern . It's a really good guitar with alot of options for tones. Also have the Epi 1955 Les Paul Custom outfit Limited reissue That's my secret weapon. Plays way beyond it's price. I got it when it came out and nows it's kinda collectible.

  • @Skinnyorangemusic
    @Skinnyorangemusic Před 5 měsíci

    Super cool into. Been playing a strat and lately just acoustic. Writing rock and roll and want an electric with a little more weight/punch. Suggestions please for a humbucker guitar (moderate price)?

  • @Mikey__R
    @Mikey__R Před 6 měsíci +5

    Mines a 2020 Studio in smokehouse burst. It doesn't have the coil taps of the latest Studios, which is definitely a different kind of sound worth having.

    • @rigodon97
      @rigodon97 Před 2 měsíci

      Just got this one too ! I find it hard to understand if the Alcino pickups are pro or not. Do you know ? Are you planning on modding them ?

  • @watchtonystube
    @watchtonystube Před měsícem

    I got that Alpine White epi LP custom at Guitar Center Hollywood a few months $649 brand new out the door. Needed a guitar for E-flat standard and always wanted a LP style guitar. Slapped gold Gibson knobs, gold keystone Grover lock tuners, Gold Super Distortion bridge humbuckers, white with gold post Steve Morse neck humbucker, orange drop capacitors and push pull CTS posts with upgraded wire kit.
    Huge difference, sik guitar

    Great video. How do I know if my 2004 Korean Epiphone Standard is based on 50s or 60s?

  • @feloniousmonk321
    @feloniousmonk321 Před 4 měsíci +2

    Very good and well-demonstrated video. The only thing, maybe a bit too much overdrive - more like distortion. Hard to tell anything apart with it.

  • @MarkLysaght
    @MarkLysaght Před 7 měsíci +2

    I recently bought a second-hand Custom in black, I was just blown away by the quality of this instrument. I aleeady have a 50s and 60s Gibson Les Paul but the Epiphone very much holds its own against them, the ProBucker pickups are so much better than those fitted in older Epiphone models.

    • @stingylizard
      @stingylizard Před 6 měsíci

      Salute that! Our fave axe,Epiphone Custom in black. That Chinese black is a unique black...you know it when you see it

  • @Ledzepfan88
    @Ledzepfan88 Před 4 měsíci

    I think I p🎉referred the probucker 2-3 in that custom!! Maybe sounded a bit more even it is definitely very smooth sounding I don't dislike the 50s I can just see why someone would want the custom. Plus Randy Rhoads vibes all day

  • @dannyturner7967

    Picking up my Epi LP Custom today, for me has the better sound. Won't pay Gibson prices for virtually the same guitar

  • @kasper-jw2441
    @kasper-jw2441 Před 2 měsíci

    beginner player here:
    so first of all, im not ready to upgrade my epiphone les paul special 2 yet (still learning pretty hard on the moment)
    would a higher priced epiphone les paul be worth it? in what price class should i look when it comes to the epiphones...
    i know, gibson is the real deal, but im far from the real deal and the real money you have to pay for a gibson..
    im just curious, would it be worth to upgrade from my 300 bucks special 2 to a 6 to 700 bucks epiphone les paul (standard, custom or what ever?)
    thanks!

    • @rigodon97
      @rigodon97 Před 2 měsíci

      Honestly for now - and especially if you're still learning just enjoy your guitar for what it is ! 700 bucks Les Paul have slightly better mics - and the rest is just cosmetics. It's not a huge difference at all so if I were you I'd keep on working by guitar, save up, and just hit a 1000 one that you love later on. And you do have a respectable Les Paul - so you could even explore other brands in the future ! Buying a 700 Epi Les Paul when you already have your special 2 isn't worth the buy I think.
      Also don't make any rushed decision based on online reviews. Always try and compare a guitar yourself in person. Same model can sound sometimes different.

    • @kasper-jw2441
      @kasper-jw2441 Před 2 měsíci +1

      @@rigodon97 thats sounds like great honest advice.
      i think im going to play this special 2 until it falls apart in a view years and then maybe buy a really nice 1000 bucks and up the range les paul.
      thanks!

    • @captainbongwater8469
      @captainbongwater8469 Před 4 měsíci +2

      Yes although they might not have been out at the time this video released. It doesn’t seem like you get the upgraded pots in the muse though, but the muse has phase controls which the studio does not.
