Epiphone Les Paul Tribute, Ebony

Guitar shipped as a box within a box and a tiny amount of packing paper to quell the rocking. As you can see from the pictures, it comes in a separate bag (Two actually. One is an overbag and the one the guitar is inside is a little thicker and intended to help with scratch resisting. It has cardboard flanks to prevent the neck from moving around too much in transit and banging the headstock. There were some little plastic sticky covers over the back of the tuners and on the bridge pickup. It has a little foam protection ring around the pickup selector switch for transit. Nothing was broken, dented, scratched, or otherwise off when I received it. It only came with some stickers and promotional material so if you need allen wrenches for adjustments, you will need to get them separately. The guitar feels well balanced and the action seems pretty nice for the 10s it came with. I haven't bought a guitar in a really long time so I don't have much to compare it with but I will say that it was exactly what I was hoping for. It sounds great and it plays great. I really like the looks of this guitar as well. I looked at a lot of guitars in this price range looking at various fixed bridge style guitars before settling on this one and I'm glad I went with this. It's a great guitar. I'm an intermediate player who took a break so this is a perfect guitar for me to get back into it. Good guitar. Get yourself one if you're thinking of it.

I don't think you are going to find a better guitar under $500. Like most lower end (Gibson and Epiphone Les Pauls, I had to make a couple of adjustments to the intonation, and slightly enlarge the string slots in the nut to get the E and G strings to stay in tune. String height was perfect. It plays and sounds amazing. I wish my first guitar had been half this good. The only con is the weight. It's a tad on the heavy side, but mahogany is always heavy. Even that is a minor complaint and doesn't adversely affect sustain. If you are looking for a great beginner to intermediate guitar,and love the Gibson sound without the Gibson price tag, look no further. This is definitely it.

Great value and quality for the price! Excellent choice for those who want a Les Paul style guitar but don’t want to spend the money.

The sound and the quality were definitely great. I found it stays in tune longer than my other guitars. The neck and body are comfortable. I was very satisfied.

Never been happier

Arrived fast, perfect condition; this price point very impressive. Gorgeous and great finish. Classic mahogany solid, just working out best setup for my preference but she's one sweet number 🎂🤠

Very good.

For the price this guitar exceeded my expectations in looks and sound

Parfait

Je mets 4 étoiles parce que j'ai eu un problème avec l'instrument et se n'est qu'une semaine plus tard que j'ai eu une réponse de Gybson. Très bel instrument avec une belle qualité. Je recommande.

Muy buena, venía bien empacada

Para el costo, es una excelente guitarra de entrada. O para tocar en casa con un Boss Katana mini. La manufactura no tenía defectos. Como TODA guitarra nueva, requería buenas cuerdas y ajuste. Esto no es un defecto. Con la excepción de ciertas marcas (PRS), toda guitarra recién comprada lo requiere. En negro, estéticamente es muy atractiva. Le compré otros knobs y con ese simple cambio, su apariencia mejora muchísimo. En cuanto al sonido... esta guitarra será para mi hijo. Los humbuckers son muy potentes. Y eso es lo que busco en una guitarra con humbuckers. Para un tono sutil prefiero una Strat o una telecaster (o p90's). Yo en lo personal prefiero los single coils, sea en una Strat, telecaster o p90s. De los humbuckers simplemente espero tocar con distorsión (sin el feedback de los single coils de una Fender o un p90). De manera que es una gran guitarra de práctica. Tengo muy poco tiempo libre, por lo cual practico con un Boss Katana mini en la sala (viendo tv) para no despertar a mi esposa y a mi hijo. Y es un excelente amplificador para esos fines, siempre y cuando uses humbuckers. De otra forma, el Boss Katana mini es demasiado sensible al hum de los single coils. De manera que he estado usando esta guitarra para ese fin. Los humbuckers que tiene no son sutiles. Tienen un output MUY alto. De modo que si buscan una guitarra para tocar prístinos tonos limpios, esta NO es la guitarra indicada. En relación calidad/precio, sin duda es un 10/10. Actualización. Gran guitarra. No he cambiado los humbuckers porque son muy potentes sin dejar de ser articulados. Y de una guitarra con humbuckers ese es el sonido que busco. Para un tono más sutil y expresivo uso una Strat, una tele o p90s. El selector es de mala calidad. Va a fallar. Pero se cambia fácilmente. Actualización. Supongo que esto no funcionaría más que para alguien que toca en casa blues acústico y estilos similares.... pero con una mínima inversión, la apariencia puede cambiarse sin demasiada dificultad.
