Epiphone Slash Les Paul Standard Appetite Burst

The guitar is excellent. The November Burst color is my favorite color, and it looks beautiful with the Flame maple top. The guitar is made excellently - without a fault. The sound of the pickup is excellent. I've had an Epiphone LP before, but the Slash version is better. The factory setup is very good.
Neck Profile: Slash Custom C-Shape is great for me,
Tuners: Epiphone Deluxe Keystones look beautiful and hold tune very well.
The frets on the guitar should be polished a little better, but it's not a problem to do.
Epiphone slash is best bay with Musik Store sale.
I am very happy, I bought an excellent guitar at a discounted price.

After a year since I purchased it, the guitar plays, looks and feels almost like the real thing.

It is a Slash fan's dream guitar for less than the actual Gibson model so you can't go wrong with it as long as you are aware there is the actual Gibson costing 3 times more so there is, and always be a difference. As an example the thin veneer top used on the Epiphone whilst Gibson mounts a thick top, the different pick ups mounted, the woods used for each one's body....it is all adding and the difference is there.

Since it came out, there has been a lot of controversy regarding the pick ups but to me they sound perfectly fine though one star less on price/performance since it should have indeed mounted either duncans or actual gibson pickups. But then again, we would have to pay more for the guitar.

Some models I see at the time of writing this review on offer at Music Store so grab yours for less than I did when it came out. Will not regret it, I would of course have preferred to pay a bit less for it but do not regret buying it almost upon release and full price since it has given me a great year.

One thing I found not being in line with the guitar were the Epi-Strap locks, way too rough and really hard to push in but worse to pull out, so I exchanged these to black Schallers, and each time I hear the smooth click, I am comfortable and feel the guitar is secured but has a smooth mechanism.

A real treat both visually but most important, at a musical level. Would not mind having a wall with all the models

Also the case is totally sick, love it with the Tip Top Hat Skully! R'N'F'R' indeed Saul.

I love this guitar! I am a big fan of Slash, but could not afford the Gibson version. This Epiphone version is perfect. The November Burst colour is beautiful and the flame maple top is gorgeous, even if it's just a veneer! The neck profile is very comfortable and the guitar doesn't weigh too much. This makes it very easy to play for an extended period of time. I plan to upgrade the pickups later to Seymour Duncans, but the stock Epiphone ones do the job very well for a start. Very satisfied with the guitar

Les +
- Guitare parfaitement réglée : manche droit, action basse, intonation, sillet
- Aucune frette haute
- Guitare magnifique avec sa table érable AAA
- Légère : 3.9 kg
- Le gros son Gibson, je me régale et me prends pour Gary Moore
- Mécaniques d'excellente qualité, précises et stables
- Tenue d'accord irréprochable
- Electronique très bonne, volumes et tones CTS progressifs

Les -
- Mauvais feeling avec le sélecteur 3 positions, il fait un peu cheap comparé au reste
- Bout des frettes qui accroche un peu, on ne le sent pas en jouant

Je recommande vivement cette guitare, j'en suis très content et pourtant je suis exigeant. Vous aurez le son Slash et Gibson Les Paul pour le quart du prix de sa grande soeur américaine.
Foncez !

A really great guitar at a fantastic price at the moment. Delighted with the Customer Service and delivery time from Music Store to Dublin. Will be buying plenty more from this shop.
