Epiphone 2008 Les Paul Custom: Don't Call It A "Comeblack," That's Not Even A Word

Epiphone 2008 Les Paul Custom

The Epiphone Les Paul Custom may not get the respect that its upscale Gibson progenitor does, but this member of the blue-collar monarchy does more than coast on its birthright. For 2008, Epiphone announced a throne-load of upgrades for their Les Pauls, and Owen O'Malley outlines each one as he vets the ax for a place in the Gearwire price-performance hall-of-fame.

Next up: Owen shows you how, in a clear and easy to understand step-by-step instructional video, how to affix a clip-on bow-tie.

Presenter: Owen O'Malley and Gretchen Hasse, Gearwire
Location: Gearwire Studio -- Chicago, IL

... you're dead right. Have had my Epi LP custom for years and it's still my main guitar. Totally solid, beautiful action and I can get great tones on a variety of amps. Glad to hear their new gear is still cutting the mustard.
