Love it!

I needed to set it up (fret buzz) but I love this thing. I am a beginner and having a great time with this guitar. The guitar collection has begun.

Side note I am extremely happy with the way Sweetwater packages their shipments unlike the other companies, which shall remain nameless.
Music background: Drummer by nature who is finally learning guitar.

Pleasantly surprised.

I'm so glad I got the cherry heritage sunburst. You can see the beautiful wood grain from what appears to be at least a maple vernier. I know that's not adversed.I have a black one so obviously you can't see the wood underneath. This one, the cherry sunburst, looks fantastic. Way better than the black. I cant put it down. Awesome guitar. Need more colors. Quilty Verniers please.
Rated 5/5

Very Surprised!!

I wasn't sure what to expect from a $ guitar but I was very surprised when I opened the box! The fit and finish was excellent, the fret ends were smooth and finished, tuners were very smooth, the switches and pots felt good, the pickups sounded very good! The action was a little high, but that's easily adjusted, overall this is a great guitar!
Rated 5/5

Can't seam to put it down

Like many, I immediately saw "Les Paul" and got excited although it is an Epiphone with Les Paul body. I have never owned an Epiphone until now. Where have I been??? I am a very picky guitarist and I cannot find ANYTHING wrong with this guitar. It chords and plays well and it is pretty much set up for you right down to atoning. THAT is quality service. I have 6 electric 6 stringers and love them all but I now have a new favorite! The one and only problem I have with it is SO HARD to put down! I would give her 6 stars if I could! Awesome guitar! WELL worth the price and a lot more!
Music background: Guitarist both rhythm and lead. Been in 3 different rock bands

Sweetwater Brings it Again!

For several years now I've trusted the advice/knowledge of my rep, Patrick Weaver. He's never once failed me, or steered me down a wrong path. I recently purchased the Epiphone Les Paul Studio LT - Heritage Cherry Sunburst, and couldn't be more pleased with this latest item, which also included the Orange Crush 20 1x8" 20-watt Combo Amp - Black. Here's my story, for better or worse: I and a couple of close friends formed a "garage band" back in the early "Beatles/English Invasion" in the mid 1960s. We were all self-taught, and at first we sucked. After a year or so we morphed into a decent band, with me on guitar, and my buddies on bass and drums. We even cut a record which was played in three Southern states; that was quite a thrill for a trio of mid-teens. Our cover of "For Your Love" topped the Yardbirds's version, with me playing a hard-rock lead in place of their original slow-tempo break/chorus. Blew them away! Other covers followed, and we seemed on our way.
Cut to a year or so in the future. The war in Vietnam loomed. Our drummer (eldest of the group) was drafted. I joined the Marines after high school (age 17) to get my military obligation out of the way. Our bassist got married after getting his girlfriend pregnant. Our plan was to get back together ASAP and set the music world on its heels after regrouping.
Well, alas and alack -- things didn't work out as planned (do they ever?). Our drummer married during his stint in the USAF; I was severely wounded in combat; our bass player sprouted a couple of kids (soon adding up to four). Instead of regrouping and setting the Rock World on fire, LIFE caught up to us and dealt us a dirty hand.
I turned to playing (mostly finger picking) folk/soft rock on a Gibson acoustic 12-string, along with our bassist who took up rhythm on a 6-string. Our drummer went on to a successful career in insurance. Our dreams of taking the R&R world by storm quickly fizzled. LIFE trumped our dreams.
So, for nearly 50 years I was content writing songs on my acoustic 12 (and many other guitars--a result of a severe case of G-A-S), and playing the occasional gig. After many years I began to develop a bit of arthritis in my hands/fingers. I decided I would once again explore the world of electric guitar. After conferring with Patrick Weaver, I decided on the aforementioned equipment. I couldn't be more pleased as I once again delved into learning lead/rhythm guitar on my new equipment. The pleasure lives on, even though the dreams of long ago have simmered into the pool of the past. I'm enjoying a Renaissance of half-century dreams as I become a legend in my own (feeble?) mind.
So many thanks are due to Patrick for steering me back to the joys of quality-sounding electric guitar rocking, with an emphasis on the blues (mostly stemming from my love of acoustic "Delta" and other style blues). I couldn't be more pleased with the suggestion Patrick Weaver offered. AND -- as usual-- Sweetwater has proven to be the best source of quality gear and unsurpassed customer service "out there" in the vast world of Musicdom. Give them a try. You won't be sorry dealing with the best company and staff available!
