Singlecut electric guitar with maple top and Alnico Classic Pro pickups
With the Epiphone Les Paul Classic Honey Burst, Epiphone presents a flexible electric guitar as part of the Inspired by Gibson Collection that combines the coveted Les Paul style with the classic Kalamazoo headstock and a traditional burst finish. Classically constructed, the Epiphone Les Paul Classic features a mahogany body with maple top and a glued mahogany neck in a comfortable "slim taper" profile. Two Epiphone Alnico Classic Pro pickups provide powerful humbucker sounds on the guitar amplifier, with a present midrange spectrum that provides the perfect foundation for the sounds of Blues and rock. Thanks to the coil-split option, the Epiphone Les Paul Classic Honey Burst also delivers top-notch single-coil tones with high transparency and lively dynamics, while the out-of-phase circuit delivers thinned-out tones with an emphasis on the treble. Completing the Epiphone Les Paul Classic Honey Burst is also a LockTone Tune-O-Matic bridge, LockTone Stopbar tailpiece and die-cast tuners.
Classic style and flexible sound: the Epiphone Les Paul Classic Honey Burst comes with Kalamazoo headstock and Alnico Classic Pro pickups with coil split and out-of-phase switching.

I took my time before writing a review because in the beginning I wasn't super hyped about the sound, but then, after playing more, the guitar revealed itself. A few notes about the sound and what was weird: -clean sound: great sound at volume and tone at all 10s. -dist+over: wasn't great, sounded too noisy to my taste, but I fixed it by decreasing the tone to around 5-7 (depends on the amp settings). Ofc when you switch between dist->clean->dist it gets a bit tedious to reach the knobs all the time... So, to get a full potential I highly recommend taking your time and finding the right settings for your setup! The visuals are just magnificent. The color is very interesting and differs based on lights. All in all - highly recommend it.
