Description

The Epiphone Les Paul Standard Plus Pro HB delivers the iconic Les Paul experience with a touch of elegance and versatility that both seasoned performers and budding musicians will appreciate. This guitar is a harmonious blend of tradition and modernity, featuring a visually stunning flame maple top that not only enhances its sound but also makes a striking visual statement on stage.

Clean

I'm still a novice but here's briefly what I like about it : I find the sound extra clean, and it's very easy to play with. Compared to the guitars I had before I find it a lot more comfortable.

This is my allround workhorse

Very nice honeyburst color. Plays like a charm and is very versatile. Customized with Gibson Burstucker pickups and custom wiring.

Great guitar for the price!

The guitar is very good for the price. The neck pickup is ideal for cleans and the bridge will smash any solo you want to play!
