Epiphone Les Paul SL - Gigworthy Budget Axe

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.
