    I’ve been blown away by

    I’ve been blown away by the Epiphone Inspired by Gibson Custom 1960 Les Paul Special DC Reissue. From the moment I opened the case, I knew this was something special. The TV Yellow finish is gorgeous—rich, vintage-looking, and just relic’d enough to feel authentic without being overdone. The double-...

    It’s that good

    I’ve owned several Epiphone guitar thru the years and have been pleased with them but rarely have I thought they were Gibson quality. The Les Paul Double Cut Special is Gibson quality and more. First off the playability out of the box was great. I adjusted the string height and that was all. CTS pot...

    Well I guess the only

    Well I guess the only realistic way to evaluate this at the start is to mention that it has all the same materials as its Gibson version. And so far all I have done is tune it and plug it in to a Marshall Origin and if you like the sound of P90s in a tube amp then you love it. Also it’s a bit cheape...

    Best deal out there. A rock machine.

    First I will say I have none of the issues of the other review. My only issue was an intonation screw is missing but I'll likely put on a Music City Bridge anyways. Fit and finish are great. Board is a dark rosewood. Fret ends are perfect. No snags. Finish is glossier than I expected. You can see th...
