Epiphone || Showcase your guitar...

[rbraad68]

I have a TV Yellow too, had it for 6 years now and it is still amongst all my more expensive guitars, played almost every day. It is incredible that you can get such a guitar for that cheap. Neck is moderate C, not the dreaded Slim Taper most Epiphone have. This little LP is a tone monster and is so light, it's like you are wearing it. 6.2 or .4 pounds. If you want a new one, get it now because I heard Epiphone won't make them anymore.

119 dollars right now at GC . their on back order but still order it now and get the 30 dollars off and just wait for it to restock. i think im going to grab one. TV yellow ir is .....

My first post here. My first LP is in the background. It is a Korean made Epiphone LP100 with blank headstock from 1998. The two up front are both 2019 models. I am impressed with both guitars. I knew the Gibson LP Standard was going to be a great guitar, but I was shocked at how good the Epi Custom Pro is. I enjoy playing all 3.

Nope, set neck. It is 99% of what its Gibson counterpart is.

Yep, should drop right in. You don't have to remove the bushings, you will not notice they're chrome once the bridge and tailpiec installed. But if you want to, do it this way.

man i've since recieved these parts and installed them.i ran into a problem right off the bat. i went thru the pain in the ass process pulling the bushings out by hand!! soooo as my luck turns out the bushings for the new parts are too small and i wound up having to use the stock chrome bushings to make it all work.i think i paid like 70 ish dollars for these bridge pieces, i freaking better like these parts!!!

Nope not like these. Single units. Did I have to ream ? I don't think so, but even if I had to, it was a $84 guitar. If it makes your tool more friendly user, why not. It's not like it was a historic vintage million dollar thing.
