RossW Posted May 23, 2004 Report Share Posted May 23, 2004 Epiphone Les Paul Black Beauty with 3 x Humbuckers. Mahogany body with alder top, mat finish and gold hardware. Retails at around 450 - 500. Will sell for 300 and will throw in a hardcase worth 100!!! It is an outstanding guitar and is generally rated on a par with a true Les Paul Custom. I've had it for 5 years but it is in excellent condition and has been recently set up. I've gigged it for the past two year with The Gloria Flaw and it has served me very well!For more information have a look at the Epiphone website.

Maple neck, korina body and gold hardware.Retails at around 350 - 400. Will sell for 250 and will throw in a brand new Ritter guitar bag with delux padding worth 70. I have had this guitar for around 18 months and is it the same condition in which it was purchased. This guitar also has a very good set-up and has been gigged with The Gloria Flaw.For more information have a look at the Epiphone website.

RossW Posted May 26, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 Two ace guitars for very reasonable prices : ) Itching to buy my '72 Fender Tele Custom, so might ask R&B what they would give me for a part-exchange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
