Epiphone LP Custom, ebony, made in China 2011. This is a tidy example of Epiphone's flagship Les Paul model. It seems like just about every guitar player who's been playing for more than a year or two has owned an Epi LP at some stage, and not without reason. This is a tidy player with a comfortable, slim neck and sturdy, reliable hardware. The Grover tuners are a handy deluxe touch, as are the 'ProBucker' pickups, which deliver a bright, thick tone with plenty of clarity and body. The bound black finish with gold hardware is a classic look that's yet to go out of style in the last six decades, so you should be pretty safe to assume it's going to stay cool for quite some time yet. It'll do nicely!
