Holy damn! This is a stunning looking Epi Les Paul Standard in a tobacco burst finish. It was produced in the Land of the Rising Sun and has made its way to our fair shores. Time to get your hands on a no BS rock and blues machine. Let's Go!
Crafted from toneful mahogany, it features a medium C neck profile (.825"-.958") with a fast, playable 10" radius rosewood fingerboard. The headstock is the traditional open book style (which looks legit). The original nut has been replaced with the 1.51" bone nut that it now has.
The stock pickups have all of the nice mid honk and clarity that you come to expect from a LP (N: 7.48k, B: 7.51k). Warm dark tones on the neck pickup, biting treble tones on the bridge. It don't get much more classic.
It weighs in at 7.48 lbs. Perfection.
This lightly used Paul has its fair share of bumps, bruises and love. But that's the way it goes in the topsy turvy world of rock n' roll. There is playwear overall including some dings on the neck, back, and side. There is a fair amount of buckle rash on the back and there are dings along the top edge of the headstock. None of this detracts from how striking this stunning guitar is. The original pickguard is missing (frankly, it looks cooler without it). At some point in its illustrious career the trapezoid inlay at the 7th fret was replaced. Finally the original truss cover has been swapped. Details.
It has been setup and it's fully ready for stage or studio with zero issues and level frets. It includes the original hardshell case, and will be shipped swiftly and safely the next day.
