LP Classic?

[tflanster]

I recently acquired a LP Classic Quilt Red - 4 months new. I know it's a discontinued model that was selling on MF for about $550.00. I'm wondering where it falls in the ratings among other LP's like the Standard, Studio, Dot, etc. Any thoughts on this?

 

I really like the guitar. I just installed a set of Addario flats on it and to me it sounds and plays just about the way I hoped it would.

 

Thanks

I think Classics were the same as standards but with differant PUs. Stan.

I think the only difference was they took the covers off of the pups for a different look in addition to the quilt top. I just bought a used classic about 6 or 8 weeks ago, I gave it to a band mate to test drive, if he likes it I'll sell it, if not I'll probably mod it

so do all the classics come with flame or quilted tops? because i just bought a black classic but it looks way darker compared to the pics on musiciansfriend/guitarcenter.com. it's still slightly transparent though because i can see the wood.

I had a beautiful amber quilted top classic, like, as in gorgeous. Many or most classics also have no pickguard installed. Classic Gibsons had more greenish colored inlays, but I don't think the Epis have that distinction.

 

CHeck out this listing near me: http://philadelphia.craigslist.org/msg/855440874.html

 

seemed to be a good deal for a mod project.

I almost got one, but after playing one at GC, I said "No thanks". Ended up paying way more, but being much happier with my Ultra.
