A 2014 Epiphone Les Paul Custom Pro

Probucker 3 bridge pickups and Probucker 2 neck pickups. Bought it used from a professional guitarist for $650 and it plays so nicely.

Time to learn some Dire Straits.

    Speaking as a fellow (I presume) sinister/southpaw...
    Well, you know the solution to that.

    Really nice guitar.
    You might want to look under the hood as most of those have some seriously sloppy wiring and soldering. I have fixed my Friends Son's who has the exact same model. I'll dig up the pictures to show you.

    I completely re wired the guitar and it sounds and plays great. This was 2016 and the guitar was a 2015-2016 model year. I think it retailed for $999 or somewhere in that realm.

    I don't want to mess with it honestly. If it ain't broke don't fix it and it's such a nice guitar I'd be mortified if it wasn't exactly like it was before I messed with it lol.

    I'll keep this in mind if I ever get any problems with it, though. Thanks for the heads up!
