## Description

From the manufacturer Les Paul Special II Epiphone's number one selling model LP Special II is a great way for beginners to get started on guitar while getting the feel and tone of a Les Paul. Seasoned pros also love the Special II because it's a great-sounding workhorse of a guitar that allows them to leave their more expensive axes at home. Features Superior Materials and Design Makes a Superior Value The Les Paul II's authentic LP power starts with an all-mahogany, trademarked Les Paul body with a bolt-on "1960's" SlimTaper and Mahogany with dot inlays. Famous Les Paul Tone The Special II is voiced by a pair of hot open-coil Epiphone 700T and 650R humbucker pickups for that massive unmistakable Les Paul tone. Like all of Epiphone's electric guitars, the Special II comes standard-equipped with 500K potentiometers for the Master Volume and Master Tone controls, plus Epiphone's heavy-duty 3-way pickup selector toggle switch and exclusive non-rotating heavy-duty output jack. Epiphone Hardware The Les Paul Special II also features Nickel hardware including the Epiphone Tune-o-matic bridge and StopBar tailpiece for amazing sustain and even more mind-blowing value. It comes in your choice of Ebony, Heritage Cherry Sunburst, and Vintage Sunburst colour finishes and also in a special Wine Red version with black hardware. There is even a left-handed version in Heritage Cherry Sunburst or Vintage Sunburst finishes for southpaws.

Review: Great guitar for a bargain price - Nice looking guitar, well made & very light. The guitar has a very nice, loud sound due to the humbucker pick ups. It is very good for rock music, but can also be used for clean tunes. The build quality & finishing is very good for the price, there are no rough or sharp edges on the neckboard, frets etc. and everything appears well put together. The guitar is easy to hold and the neck is reasonably narrow, making chords etc easy to play. The only slight problem I had was that the B string ( 2nd string ) could not be tuned, I solved this by unwinding the string & rewinding it onto the post again. After doing this the string could be tuned & stayed in tune. As with all new guitar strings, it needs to be played a few times & retuned a few times until the strings are bedded in and then it stays in tune. There are many posts on the internet about people buying this guitar & then upgrading pick ups, tuners etc, but, in my opinion, this is not necessary, the guitar plays & sounds good as it is. If you want to do that, it would be easier just buying a more expensive guitar in the first place. This is the second guitar I have bought from desertcart Warehouse, and both have been in excellent condition, with no visible damage & with all the manufacturers information, original box etc included. I would buy from there again, as I have two guitars in excellent condition for a bargain price.
Review: Special by name.... - I wish that entry level guitars like this had been around when I started learning to play 36 years ago. In those days if you bought a cheap guitar you got something that produced horrible screeches, buzzes and crackles when amplified, was virtually unplayable and was impossible to tune. This is nothing like that and in my opinion it lives up to the reviews I read of it before I bought it. Despite the good reviews I was still a little nervous when it arrived as I have never bought a mail order guitar before; I have always tried guitars out before I have parted with any money. I needn’t have worried though. It’s well put together, quite weighty, and has a reassuringly solid feel to it. The toggle switch and controls are smooth. It appears to have been set up before despatch as the intonation on mine is as it should be, although the action is slightly high for my liking. That’s just a very minor gripe though and it could probably be lowered with a little attention. Another petty gripe is the feel of the fretboard and strings on arrival. Epiphone seem to apply some sort of coating or treatment for some reason which caused my hands and fingers to stick and catch when moving around the neck. Thankfully though this wore off after I had played it a couple of times and now (2 days later) it feels perfectly fine. So at this stage I was fairly impressed but it completely surpassed my expectations when I plugged it in. I’ve got it going through a Boss Distortion and the clean channel on a Fender combo as shown in the picture. The sound is unbelievable for a guitar of this price! I played a number of rock standards from AC/DC, Thin Lizzy, Guns n Roses etc and I was just massively impressed by the sound of the thing. On top of that there isn’t a squeak when I stop playing; no whistles, hums and screeches that have me reaching to turn down the volume pot. The clean sound is a little boxy but perfectly adequate…and I’m spoilt anyway as I have an American Standard Telecaster which is the master of “clean”. I bought it to use at rehearsals and gigs on a couple of songs that need alternative tuning but now I’m considering using it on the songs that need more girth than the tele can supply. If you want a decent guitar to learn on it’s a great choice and it is good enough to keep you going from learner through to first band. If you play pubs and clubs like me and need a second guitar you could certainly do a lot worse. I can see why it is Epiphone’s best-selling guitar worldwide.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A great lttle gem for a great price.
*by M***. on 3 February 2016*

Very impressed with this guitar for the price. I have always played a B.C. Rich but wanted to try something different without forking out to much money, I just play as a hobby and to compose. I have been missing out for years on this little gem. Out of the box I tuned up the strings supplied to see what the sound was like through a micro stack. The sound of this guitar was perfect, strings changed to my faves then off I went. played it clean at first, oh boy, did it sound good on all mixes off pickups, very, very impressed. checked the intonation expecting to tweak it, no such chance spot on so that is a plus. Quite light compared to what I have been playing, So the pluses are adding up. Paint work good, the neck was a lot easier to play with my dumpy hands, by now I am sold. Through the effects box it sounded brilliant, beefy is the word I would use. This little gem gets top marks from me, add another two stars. Thanks to all those who reviewed this prior to me buying this, they made up my mind.
