  • Just picked up this guitar from a friend last week. I will lower the pickups and straighten the neck then it should be in good shape for a student to purchase if they decide they want it. Over-all I was impressed with the guitar. I do play a 1970 Black Gibson Les Paul Custom which is much heavier. I would not hesitate to bring this Epiphone out to a gig or a blues jam. It's pretty cool!

    I got mine abt 2001, it’s made in
    Korea. Has always been a great player and stays in tune with Grovers. Still in immaculate shape!

    I still have and love my lp-100. I bought it new in about 93-94, absolute workhorse and still sounds great to my ears.

      @@brookhoover1384 no it has humbuckers, tbh I'm not even sure what humbuckers they are it never really concerned me that much as they sound great to me. The headstock is a bit different it has Gibson printed on the truss rod cover and epiphone on the head, no Les Paul written on it. Its gained some stickers and a couple of little dings here or there over the years, from my younger days gigging with it. I know its not a pricy guitar by any stretch but I'm definately emotionally attached to it for life now. :)

    Just picked up one of these for 90 bucks from a guy on offer up and i must say I'm impressed so far. The pickups might get replaced with some emgs but they really arent bad for stock pick ups. Decent affordable axe.

      Ya these are cool! You could play in a bar and throw it on your car and not worry too much about it getting hurt or stolen. I seem to be less inhibited by a lower cost guitar.

      @@brookhoover1384 Exactly what i got it for. I've had 2 amazing guitars stolen at shows so i started taking guitars that have affordable quality. Man,i remember when a drunk stagediver fell into me while i was playing my schecter banshee gt,both of us falling forward absolutely totalling my guitar. I still haven't recovered emotionally lol

    Bought mine new in 94. Took off pick guard, 3 way switch surround, replaced ivory knobs with black. Most importantly changed stock pick-ups to Nickel covered Gibson 490 R and T. Love it still.

    I have this guitar since 2017 and the only adjustment I did was the pickup hight. For like 200 bucks you're getting a really good guitar. And most important, it had no dings.

      Epiphones are a little bit hit and miss for me, but the recent ones I've tested are impressive. If you can find a used one at a good price and the neck is not warped or twisted, I'd say you can't lose. What kind of music are you doing? If you want some pdf files of riffs and scales, email me at hooverguitar@yahoo.com so you can keep developing your skills. Rock out!
