bloozeguy Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 So, I was browsing my local GC today, hoping they've gotten in a used JP like I've been looking for, when my eyes fall upon a beautiful apparition--what had all the indications of being a '59 or '60 reissue single cut LP Special with two P90s, a set neck and in TV yellow. $379. With case? Dunno. Didn't have time to stick around and test drive, either, and, hey, I've been shopping for the Pass for a while, anyway. Or has my late-life turn to electric suddenly become more complicated???? Yeah, I know the JP and LP are two different guitars for two very different purposes. But the fingers are gettin' itchy, GAS is accumulating in the gut, and "My Generation" was "Born To Be Wild" (RIP Dennis H.) Had no idea any such animal was out or even coming out. I do know a lot of folks on these pages have been asking for them--though more often the double-cuts. No help on the Epi website, unless I'm really missing something (quite probable given my lack of 'pooter skills). So, little help out there with the skinny on this model's specs. Especially interested in the woods. And if anyone hs taken one out for a spin, tell me what you think. Also, has Epi been thinning the neck profiles on a bunch of their models? I always grab around the neck and this felt slimmer, flatter, than a lot of their solid-bodies have felt before, more like what's on the Pass or the Sherrie.

sexygibson Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 Those really are some nice looking guits. I'm considering picking one up myself. I don't really need it but might pulll the plug on one before Epi pulls the plug on this model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deflepfan Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 Your welcome Bloozeguy! Hope it helped. Sexy, I was wondering if you had actually decided on a color, that's why I asked. I see you are exactly where you were when this began! Sheila Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
