Gary Moore Tribute Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Well after seeing this while after the 1960 I just nabbed it! RRP £650 to me £370! This is the 2010 - 1959 Standard Les Paul This is last years limited run #1474/1959 and one of only 980 Heritage Sunburst I have modded it tho (Chrome jack cover & cream switch head) Just my preference tho Happy Days...

Whitmore Willy Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Solid, Do my eves deceive me? It's even wired 50s. Never seen that on a stock Epi. I'm impressed. Looks like a gorgeous guitar...Congrats. I read the write-up on the Gibson website. Epiphone truly outdid themselves. How do you like the neck profile?

midiman56 Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 As much as my hand wants to reject those heavy 50's necks at first grab, I'm always surprised at how quickly I get used to them. Beauty of a guitar, Super ... comngrats! Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary Moore Tribute Posted March 3, 2011 Author Share Posted March 3, 2011 Had a good play of it now I see why people want these 59's The balance is great. I think with the "Chunky" D neck it does sustain quite nicely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supersonic Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Don't some of these come with blank TRC's? I think the one on the Epi site had a blank one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Moore Tribute Posted March 3, 2011 Author Share Posted March 3, 2011 I Think they where PRE production I've seen of 10 and they all but one had Standard 1959 (The other had a "Korean" Gibson cover) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary Moore Tribute Posted March 11, 2011 Author Share Posted March 11, 2011 My financial situation changed lately... Its up on a just in case scenario. (Hence the HUGE BIN price) I honestly don't want to sell it, I'm gonna remove it once the 15th of March arrives so its gonna be safe soon... (Was gonna replace with a Bonamassa if it sold) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bonzoboy Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 I recently played an Epi '59 LP tribute that was $1030 Cdn. and it was the finest sounding and playing Les Paul I've ever played and that includes Gibsons and Orvilles by Gibson.It's too bad my wallet wouldn't let me buy it.
