  • We got our hands on an Edwards Les Paul John Sykes model. We were doubtful at first, but instantly convinced after playing the instrument.

    25 years ago I had a 1980 Gibson LP Custom Silverburst (I know) I had re-done as a JS replica, the luthier knew someone who knew John, and told him it was being made. I then got this Edwards which I preferred and sold the Gibson - I've still got the Edwards.

      What did you like more about the Edwards? Tone? Weight?

      @@blakespurlock5322 I loved that it had an ebony board. Most Japan LP brands put rosewood. The weight was fairly similar to a Gibson. Overall it nailed the LP Custom look 😊

    Hello, if you don't mind me asking where did you get the pickup rings? I tried to buy some from mine and they're always the wrong size

      Yeah, this can be tricky. We got ours from an online platform that allows you to purchase stuff from China. It'll surely be available there. Apart from the size, the hue/shade varies. Hope you get the right one for your guitar 👍

    You are making a custom into a standard with adjustments for the most part in terms of esthetics

      Block inlays won't match a standard, especially with the extra one behind the first fret.

      They are made in Japan. Edwards only made them in China and did setup in Japan for about a year back around 2009.
