trescout Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 I was hoping someone could help me figure out the year and model of this guitar. I bought it used for really cheap. The former owner had custom work done to it to make it look worn in. It looks cool. Its definitely been used. Not sure what exact model it is and wondering if its worth trying to sell or not. Thanks for any insight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deflepfan Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 The work he did is called "relicing" and it is a preference as to whether you want it done or not. It takes away from the value if not done very well, and even a good job will limit who would possibly buy it. Regarding the serial number, are you sure it is a '1' and not an 'I'? If it is an I, then the following applies to your guitar: Your guitar was made at the Saein Plant, Korea July 1998 Production Number: 0339 As to which Les Paul model it is, I am not exactly sure. Someone else may be able to help there. If it plays well, keep it. Epiphones are not an investment purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james_edward Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 Looks like a Standard plus top, in trans-black - too bad for you that it's so hard to relic a poly finish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
