Epiphone Les Paul Classic HCS

Den här Epiphone Les Paul Classic HCS är lika snygg i verkligheten, som på bilden. Hela gitarren andas gediget hantverk och detaljarbetet är utan anmärkning. Jag gick igenom gitarren noga när den anlände och hittade inga fel eller anmärkningar alls. Halsen var rak och fin och det enda jag gjorde var att sänka stränghöjden lite, då jag gillar lite lägre aktion på gitarrerna. Jag behövde inte kompensera med att justera dragstången och det blev perfekt till slut. Intonationen var bra. Jag har provat den både i en Blackstar HT-20 med en 2x12" Celestion-låda med utmärkt crunch när rören är lite överstyrda, samt även i en Roland JC-40 med rent ljud och lite chorus till - helt gudomligt bra! Jag testade den även i min nya Fender Princeton Tone Master och det låter hur bra som helst på både clean och dist. Jag är lite förvånad - en Epiphone LP Classic som känns och låter i princip lika bra som en motsvarande Gibson, men till en fjärdedel av priset. Otroligt prisvärt och vackert instrument - rekommenderas starkt!

This was my first real guitar and I hope to use it in the future for playing live and recording

If you want a Gibson Les Paul but ain't got the money for it, The Epiphone Les Paul Classic is basically a Gibson Les Paul but with a lower price. I played on a Gibson before and after playing this one it was evident that there was no difference. The only difference was the headstock where instead being labeled "Gibson" it's labeled as "Epiphone".

This beautiful piece brings 2 Alnico Pro Custom humbuckers which sound beautiful. Not only brings these amazing pickups but the guitar also features CTS Eletronics which mean there's coil-splitting and a phase switcher which is always nice since it brings more variety to the guitar's configurations | The weight is good for the guitar it is. It's not heavy but also not light | The color finishing in this guitar is one of the most beautiful finishes I've seen on a guitar. If you put this thing on the sunlight you'll be stunned by how astonoshing this thing is

Now this was more of a personal experience. It might not happen to you but if it does there's no harm done. One of the volume pots got loose and kept falling off however with a piece of tin foil I managed to fix that little problem.


Overall, for the price that it's offered for an Epiphone Les Paul. I can say you'll be more than served. It's a great guitar and isn't as expensive as a Gibson. This thing plays like a real Gibson Les Paul and you'll be more than satisfied with this guitar if you're looking for that Les Paul sound

So so happy with this guitar - The range of tones is exceptional and the craftmanship in it is second to none. I love it.

Heavy guitar so If you don't like heavy this ain't for you. But you won't be looking at Les Pauls if you like light wishy washy strats anyway.

I'd have been lost without it over the past year in Lockdown and working from home. Thanks Thomann .... love it.....
