Hello, first time post here. I have several guitars but my epi les paul has been my go to guitar since 07. I had a les paul studio years ago but the quality was so bad I sold it and told myself that I would never buy a Gibson again! Well I couldn’t help myself and recently purchased a 50’s standard. I know there are still quality issues out there with Gibson but this one is great! The only issue I had with mine was I didn’t care for the pickups. I had 2 sets of the same paf clone pickups so I decided to do a little test.
I setup the Gibson and the epi exactly the the same: pickups, tuners, strings, 50’s wirings etc: playing thru all my amps (Marshall, fender, dumble clone) didn’t matter the Gibson shined thru every time. With its warmth, sustain and note definition my epi can’t hold a candle to the Gibson. It’s actually a dream of a guitar to play. Also the 50’s neck profile is perfect for me. I’ve never been a believer in “because it cost more it’s better” but in this case it’s definitely ALOT better!!!!! Never new what I was missing!!!
