Bristol Old Timer Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 I've bought several Epiphone guitars over the past few months and I must say that I am generally very impressed with the quality and price. My last purchase was a Les Paul 'Limited Edition' Special, Single Cut, in Wine Red with 2 x P90's, with seperate bridge and tailpiece. I'm very pleased with the guitar, but when I compare it with my Epiphone Les Paul 'Limited Edition' '57 Reissue junior, in TV Yellow, I've noticed that the body of the Special is about half an inch thinner than the Junior. Is this historically correct?, if not, why is it so much thinner? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gearhead Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 I believe the '57 reissue should be a thicker body than the special. I can't recall the dimensions, but I know the old '57 Gibson LP Junior I had sported a pretty hefty body, about as thick as a LP Standard without the maple cap. No worries there! So how's the '57 Reissue sound? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
