    In this video, Dagan shows us how awesome the sound of the Epiphone Inspired By Gibson Series, Epiphone Les Paul Junior really is. The single dogear P-90 PROTM single-coil pickup provides a massive, fat tone that can be cleaned up with a simple turn of the volume and tone knob - this is a versatile guitar that can provide players of all levels and styles with the sound they need!
    This 50s inspired Les Paul Junior features Mahogany body in the classic 50s styleTobacco Burst finish. Again the single dogear P-90 PROTM single coil pickup provides a massive tone whilst the Lightning Bar wrap around bridge ensures a resonant, reliable sound. Finally, the Epiphone Deluxe Tobacco tuners offer tuning stability when you need it most, a Mahogany neck and body ensure your tone is warm whilst the thinner body increases snap and articulation. The simple set up of this Epiphone Les Paul, ensures you have everything you need and nothing you don't.

    I had the cheaper bolt-on version of this years ago, it wouldn’t intonate correctly, and the pickup squealed like crazy, but it was like $180 new. These are apparently made with a lot more quality and effort, it’s got a veneer on the front and back but it’s got the set-neck, proper wraparound bridge and quality p90 and quality hardware. These are worth it apparently, but I’ve always stayed away from anything bolt-on from epiphone, and it looks like they’ve finally done this guitar justice. Also, single pickup guitars have extra rich harmonics, and more sustain. Single pickup Les Pauls and strats are my current obsession.

    I'm a fender man myself but this caught my eye. I own many guitars my number 1 and 2 are both single pickup guitars and they are just beasts to play. 1 is a yamaha with a p rails and it never goes out of tune. I swear to god and my 2 is a Squier 51 I kinda retooled around with a shawbucker thing. You may be on to something with this magnetic thing cause those two sing. I got a plucky tele and a jag and a mustang too which are super fun to noodle with but when its time to get serious I bust out those two. Ive never really care for mahogany one piece deals like Gibson got. The price is kinda an immediate turn off. This seems cool though

    • @Andresortega-nd2js
      @Andresortega-nd2js 2 роки тому +4

      Dude go for it. I'm a big Green Day fan and this gives me all the Billie Joe tones, but it can do so much more. My girlfriend actually got me this beast for Christmas last year and Its currently my number one. I've personally stripped the finish, painted it white, and covered it in stickers, but thats just for aesthetics, so its essentially still stock lol. The only caveat is that the necks a bit of a chonky boi, and it doesn't help that I use really thicc strings (13-65), which is no problem for me as I like fat necks and heavy strings, but a word of warning nonetheless. Overall man, i'd definitely recommend this guitar, as it's one of the best ones ive ever had. You won't be dissapointed.

      I would say if you’re serious about playing guitar save up for a Gibson but if you just want a beater guitar to mess around with get the Epiphone. Gibson costs more but they are made with better materials. Also don’t forget the amp is super important with electric guitar. He’s playing this guitar through an expensive amp and it makes it sound a lot better
