"Guitar wise my main guitar is still the white Epiphone LP Custom that I've had for several years. I've taken the pickguard off and dropped in classic 57s and it remains my main guitar." ~ Brad Avery

“I started working with Epiphone a little less than a year ago and they introduced me to this one, which is the 1955 Custom. It has a huge neck and it’s literally like a baseball bat neck and I love that. It has the jumbo frets so you can dig in a little more. And Leslie West from Mountain is one of my guitar heroes and he had a Les Paul Junior so this is like the marriage between a big Custom and a Junior.”

lovely in black

I have the ebony one and it's a looker! It's a heavy guitar but it's a kind of weight you don't mind picking up cause everything falls into place. Might consider changing its pickups but nonetheless a great guitar.

My Sunburst LP Custom copy

Had this sturdy son of a bitch since 1998. I have tried breaking it on stage once to now avail, the strap button got ripped out once sending it flying into a crowd of people only to have a crack in the laquer under the tone pot. I honestly believe that with Epiphone you truly get your moneys worth. Its still the nicest guitar I own to play. Apart from a loose wire it has never let me down and it has been present at every gig I have played. I have no problem with the craftsmanship of most Epiphones (I did play a Casino once that was god awful), they will never have the attention to detail a Gibson will have but they are still very nice guitars in their own right. The only thing that lets them down time and time again are the electronics. The pickups are usually pretty crappy and the pots are fairly unresponsive. But sink $300 into it and you will have a guitar that individual to you and sounds great but still at a fraction of the cost of its Gibson counter-part.

fuckin beast

the stock pickups on this thing are face-meltingly hot even at the lowest possible height, the body weight holds the neck up to a comfortable position and it is all round, a sturdy, beautiful, functional piece of equipment.

Amazing

Great classic Les Paul feel and sound, without the Gibson price-tag.

Love everything about it, even the coil switching options.

I love this guitar...

Great overall, workhorse guitar. I should probably put some new pickups in it, but it is great for my recording needs and is a great guitar for multiple genres. I have toyed with the idea of putting Fishman pickups in it, but it's great stock too!

Great Starter and Rockin Guitar

I absolutely love using this guitar when ever I play really rocking tunes. It has a great sound and feels very nice. Maybe a bit heavy, but I don't mind too much. Also, play some electric blues on this guitar. You will love it.

heavy but worth it

my main Gibson style guitar. super heavy weightwise (for me). tuned to D standard and drop C. has a set of unknown Duncans in it, probably a JB and a jazz in the neck.

Les Paul

Have a nice 2005 Korea Made les Paul custom. It has 3 pickups and a nice black flame maple top. Really heavy but it's places well.

A Lot of Guitar for the Price

Although it doesn't quite equate to my Gibson, for a long time I continued to favour this as my number 1 guitar. Have some Slash pickups in it, great fun.

Thick and bassy sound!

The Custom is thicker but lighter than my Standards, but it delivers... oh yeah, it delivers! Bassy, warm, ready to rock, always!
