This guitar came in for a restring and setup, so I seized the opportunity to snap a few pictures. It's a budget-friendly lightweight instrument, no doubt; but good enough for gigging, methinks. Guitar World reviewer Paul Riario quite nicely sums it up like this: "... Epiphone have merged the Les Paul Junior and Melody Maker into one seriously kick-ass model..." Now you know I wasn't kidding when I said the SL was good enough to take on a gig. If you're curious about what the Epiphone Les Paul SL actually sounds like, do check out this YouTube video by Dawsons Music. Meanwhile, thanks to the folks at Epiphone and Swee Lee, here are a few specs:
