Some of the gang... :salude
The Internet can be a very ambiguous place, and often it's necessary to guess the intentions of other people. But there's no need to read any negativity into my post -- I was and am genuinely curious about the background of the guitars you posted. And who is holding the black Les Paul and sitting on a Fender amp?
More info, please.

Hello & thanks.la It is actually a 2006 Epiphone LP Standard that was a great pawn shop find. The stock pick ups are excellent and are Epi's Alnico Classic humbuckers. The guitar is stock in the photo but since then I did a pick up swap with my Gibson SG Special and now the SG has the Epi pick ups and the Epi LP has now genuine Gibson 490R & 490T pick ups that sound killer in this guitar since it has 500kohm pots that really let the sound out. I also replaced the original nut with a GraphTech nut with a wider string spacing and it feels great. I love the neck profile which is a slim-taper D. The finish quality is excellent on this guitar and it also came with Jim Dunlop strap locks.
Awesome! It sounds like a real player! Adding the 500K pots must have made a big difference. Black Les Pauls are always cool! :yah
