This is my last six string electric guitar. A LP Classic with a 60s style neck in Honeyburst. I bought this around 07/08 and played it almost exclusively for years before going back to Strats. Everything is stock on this except for the jack plate which cracked so I got a metal one.

I’ve always strung it with Skinny Top/Heavy Bottom strings for heavier tones when I switch to Drop D. Right now it’s always tuned to drop D and I’ve been experimenting a lot with making songs with one guitar and the bass in drop D while the others are in standard. It adds just a slight thickness when you play the lower 3 strings. Plus playing in drop D breaks me out of a creative rut sometimes.

I pretty much only run it through my 1312 drive and delays and might get a wah pedal for TOOL and Boris type tones. The pickups break up real nice if I add just a touch of gain or dig in when I pick. Overall its a nice change of pace from all my Fenders.

    My Epiphone is the newer line (Inspired by Gibson) with the redesigned headstock that looks closer to Gibson’s. The quality is excellent.

    Agreed on the Inspired by Gibson line. My last purchase is an ES335 and it’s great. I still want an SG, and maybe a single-cut, either an LP or a PRS 594.
