This is where I got my Les Paul, I see they have a shop in Newcastle.

If you ever want to go into a proper guitar shop run by proper guitar people I would recommend them. If it's owt like the Glasgow one like.

Great price if she's any good. Just over £100.

My mental image of you does not include guitars. Stop talking about them as if you know what to do with them. You are ruining the universe in my head :angry:

I have three guitars hanging on the wall just beside me.

A Gibson Les Paul (2003), an Epiphone Firebird (1995) and a wee cheap acoustic. I'm thinking of getting a new acoustic.

My friend Glen plays an Epiphone Les Paul Standard and it's an excellent guitar. He slapped a different pickup in it (I believe a Seymour Duncan) and it sounds awesome. You can't beat an Epiphone's cheap price (compared to an Gibson).

Lefties rawk, btw. True story.

Epiphone are owned by Gibson, so they aren't even described as copies. It's an Epiphone Les Paul.

The only difference is where they're manufactured, the electronics, and the wood.

that's a whole lot of differences + one is mostly made by machines and the other by a human

like a mexican strat vs usa strat, looks the same, but doesn't sound quite the same, and not even mentionning all the other 200$ clones that looks just like the original

but you can be lucky and find a really nice sounding clone strat in the bunch

can't really expect the same quality when paying 500$ vs 1500$

Put a a better pickup in an Epiphone Les Paul and you will not notice the difference in the quality of sound - between the two.

Fact.
