Les Paul - Epiphone
have a very interesting but yet amazing guitar for sale. This has truly been one of the best guitars that I have owned and is great value for money. I bought this guitar in 2005 / 2006 (somewhere in that timeframe) from a very good guitarist. He made some mods to the original guitar and is therefore not stock standard.
To start with he replaced the pick ups with the following:
Dimarzio F spaced
Dimarzio F spacec PAF Pro
Secondly the wiring:
But he also changed the wiring so that you can switch between single coil / humbucker. If humbucker is selected you can then also switch to use the PU either in series or in parallel.
Just using the Dimarzios stock standard in humbucker (ala Les Paul style) the guitar sounds great. Great rock tone and blues tone. From there on you can get plenty of different sounds according to the sound the song requires. Although nothing will sound like a fender, it does provide the ability to get a thinner 'twangy' type of sound.
Lastly : Piezo
But wait there is more, he also installed a piezo in the bridge. Therefore you can also get a acoustic sound out of the guitar. Then there is a choice to either use it as Piezo only, electric only or acoustic and electric simultaneously. He also made a long stereo jack for this. One jack into the guitar and two output jacks, one for the amp, and one for a DI box/ pa system. Unless the amp has two inputs, you can obviously use that as well, but it will sound better on a good PA. It might seem difficult at first to get use to all the switches, but it is actually not difficult. Coil taps, with volume, with switches for series / parallel and one tone control.The Piezo has a volume control and a switch for acoustic, electric or both.
This guitar has served me well and is truly a masterpiece / beast in it's own right. But unfortunately I have to let her go due to other responsibilities / hobbies and I can't bare to look at her full of dust any longer. All I seem to do is clean her up, and put her back to sleep in her coffin. Not cool hey! She deserves to be played with.
She comes with a original Gibson Les Paul case as well as a Gibson leather strap with strap locks. She is still in great nick with no damages.
I also chenged the tuners to original Gibson Deluxe tuners.
If interested, you are welcome to come and try her out. I took a lot of pictures but only posted a few. Please request a mail for more pictures if you require some more.
