=] great to hear that, it's really a nice guitar. I've found another one here in Porto Alegre (Rio Grande do Sul) and phoned a friend of my, who prontly bought it (I was pretty sure it had the 57classic/plus too). what great guitars they're. btw, I'm brazilian, but I do really like Argentina. Buenos Aires is such a beautiful city, went there last year and I do plan to come back soon =] best regards =] also, I was pretty sure that only a few would knew Vital e sua moto, glad you liked =] ---------------- one more video fellows, this one after some upgrades: - a new bridge, this really changed the tone a lot, for better, the sustain improved a lot, and there's no more saddle buzz. like I read here, in another topic, the epi bridge is really the worst part of the guitar. It just don't justice the whole instrument. I went for a gotoh ge103b-t. - a new nut. also, helped a lot with intonation. I went for a graptech tusq xl, pre-slotted, but it needed some adjustment (particulary in the G). also, I do really like this solo, one of the greatest guitar solos I've ever heard.

http://www.sonicftp.com/news/images/epiphone_probucker_top.jpg http://www.sonicftp.com/news/images/epiphone_probucker_bottom.jpg these are pics of the probucker.. they don't seen the pickups in my guitar. to tell you the truth, after these months of playing and comparing with another epi guitars, i'm pretty sure that my pickups are, indeed, gibson 57 classic/classic plus pickups. if you look back in the thread you will find pics of the pickups in detail. but thanks for the interest =]

wow. really nice guitar =] those tuner heads look really great in this guitar =] I've just made another video with my guitar, will post here for more tone samples, hope you all like http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4VZM8NoJl-Y

Hey guys, I've recently bought a Fender Blues Junior, what a nice amp =] I recorded some licks and riffs to demo it's tone with the guitar. They make a great duo =] hope you like :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k73_4fsj4i4

so.. HNGD please post pictures when you can

wow, great to hear that. very nice guitar man! the tulips are my next goal the guitar really plays very nice, and the finish is amazing too. glad to know that this thread is providing information about this model. I would have made an even more confident buy if this thread was up at that time

well, I'm afraid I cannot answer that with confidence. but, I think it's the slim taper neck profile. I don't think it's different from epi standard les pauls. it's slimmer than the neck of a gibson gold top I've played on the day I bought this one, but I don't know wich model that one was.

tnkz dudes. I'm really happy with the guitar. In the begining it felt a little strange on some things, but that was because I've been playing strats for nearly 10 years, and never had any H-H guitar.. But since I got used to it, and, adjusted some things (like pickup height, it plays a big role here) it just feels wonderful. The finish is beautiful, and the playability is really great too. This one would probably stay with me forever. thnkz for all the help mates

just putted some new gibson speed knobs. I know that many people preffer top hats, but I really like goldtops with speed knobs, and, for me, they're easier to use. I really liked the change

ok.. but.. if you take a look at the thread, you will find that this particular guitar has the same eletrics of a epi les paul tribute, that comes stock with gibby 57 classics.. are you talking about these pickups, or about the pickups that comes stock with epi les paul standard (and the majority of other epis)?

if all of these guitar have those 57 classics inside, they're really a Steal

new year, new video =P http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PecV2MJhvVQ

just to add some bits about the guitar: I think this guitar has the eletrics of a epi les paul tribute. the pickup selector is the Switchcraft, and it features Mallory 150 tone capacitors too.. the tribute came with these too. maybe not all of these guitars have those eletrics.. but if they have, they're a real bargain.
