(ARCHIVE) Epiphone Les Paul Special II Ebony 2009
- Description
- Guitarchives
Epiphone Les Paul Special II, transparent Ebony, made in Indonesia in 2009 -- Many a young player has started their journey on an Epiphone LP. This one sports a humble Ebony poly finish, but with the subtle transparency it looks pretty sleek under the right light. The neck features Epiphone's SlimTaper C profile, which is a bit narrower and easier to get around than the chunkier D profiles on a LP Standard. The guitar sounds how you'd expect a double HB Les Paul to – hefty lows/mids with a hint of sparkle in the tops. It's honky, but that translates well when paired with some gain/overdrive/distortion. Now all you need is a top hat.
