Epiphone Special-II Les Paul Player Pack, Ebony

Product Description

Our number one selling model comes with everything you need to get going on guitar. The Epiphone Special II Player Pack is a great way for beginners to get started on guitar with real, Les Paul tone, just like seasoned pros love the Special II because its a great-sounding, workhorse guitar that lets them leave their more expensive axes at home. The authentic LP power starts with all-Mahogany construction with a Rosewood fingerboard and is voiced by a pair of hot open-coil 700T and 650R Humbucker pickups. Like all of our electric guitars, it comes standard-equipped with 500K Ohms potentiometers, our own heavy-duty 3-way pickup selector toggle switch and non-rotating heavy duty output jack. This value-champ also features Chrome hardware including the Epiphone LockTone™ locking Tune-o-matic bridge and Stop-bar tailpiece for amazing sustain and even more mind-blowing value. Accessories include: Studio 10 Guitar Amp, gigbag, strap, cord, pitchpipe, picks, instructional DVD.Mahogany body700T Humbucker pickupsRosewood fretboard

3.0 out of 5 stars Nice but mine had issues, March 13, 2005
This review is from: Epiphone Special-II Les Paul Player Pack, Ebony (Electronics)
I received my player pack about a week ago. Everything was included in the pack and "seemed" great. I got the Sunburst pattern and the guitar looks really nice. The amp and the rest of the gear was all good for the price. The problem was that when I tuned the guitar I had to raise the bridge way too much to get rid of some buzzing from the fret bars. Even after that I still got the buzzing when I played vigorously. Also I could feel the edges of the fret bars on the neck which I think means that the wood of the neck had shrunk and probably warped a little (sitting in a warehouse too long maybe). I chose to repair these issues instead of returning the guitar. I like it very much and I doubt that getting another pack at the same price point would get me any more quality. If my experience was not the norm then I would give this pack a 4 or 5.
**UPDATE
The warped neck was unrepairable by the epiphone dealer in my area. They sent it back (warranty) and I got a NEW... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars good product even for intermediates/advanced, July 2, 2007
This review is from: Epiphone Special-II Les Paul Player Pack, Ebony (Electronics)
I have to say, I bought this same guitar(just the guitar) at guitar center a while ago for $150. I play professional gigs for guitar and bass and i'm defiantly not a beggineer, but I needed a guitar because i had been playing my brother's Strat(NOT A SQUIRE,NEVER GET A SQUIRE)for most of the gigs, so with money i had left over from the gigs i thought this guitar sounded good,feels good, and for the price-is good. Its not anything near a real epiphone LP, and defiantly not a real GIBSON les paul. Also buy new strings for it too, because in warehouses and after heat gets to it, the strings are very fragile- I recomened Ernie Ball Strings, they're only $3.95.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Guitar for a Tremendous Price, November 4, 2005
This review is from: Epiphone Special-II Les Paul Player Pack, Ebony (Electronics)
I got this guitar for a gift and it came in the wrong color. Other than that the guitar is great. I absolutly love the guitar. Its a great beginner, but unless you want it wrecked I would keep it in its case at all times. It looks EXACTLY like the original Gibson Les Paul, however this is like its younger brother. I think its a great guitar.
