Not into guitars but looks like a Strat. Better? The passive tone controls will just be a couple parts connected to one the end of a pot.
Yeah, it's made by leo fender after he left fender. So it's still a strat at its core.

It’s actually a Epiphone...... people who play it swear it’s a Gibson though. It has that feel and the action is awesome.

I just put in a pre-order for the Epiphone 59 LP limited edition. Can't wait for that one.

I have an Epiphone Korean made Sheraton....Of all the 20+ guitars I have, that one has the best action.. I replaced the cheap pickups though with Gibson 57 classics.. I also replaced the tuners.. The problem comes in with items like the bridge etc.. They used some crazy form of metric measuring, and finding a bridge for it was almost impossible.. I bought it new in 84

This was what I was planning on doing, buying a cheap Les Paul epiphone and changing the pickups and such over time. The LE comes with gibson burstbuckers though. I watched a bunch of reviews for it and every single one just gave me confirmation bias so I put in an order at Sweetwater.

Just be careful with the bridge and tailpiece..I had a hell of a time finding a bridge with the correct spacing.

BTW...I hate the neck on a Gibson LP...Too fat..Im partial to the slim taper

I’ve been checking out the prophecy line they just came out with.

From what I've heard through the YouTube, it sounds really damn good. I ordered the cherry sunburst. Hopefully they get some in soon. I wish it had a rosewood fretboard but at that price, can't really complain with what I'm getting.

@Leomaz you ever think of putting together your own guitar? Think it would be a pretty fun project to get your own pieces and build it how you wish.

I have been thinking about it more and more.....I like the idea of making one from start to finish. The possibilities are endless

I love that thing. Such a great practice amp with features galore. I haven't even started to explore through the app yet. I've just been screwing with the amp itself.

I hope to dive right into the app features. I want to start recording some of the crap that I am playing and hope something sticks

I'm still learning how to use an amp to begin with. The amp I used to have was real crap, so I never learned how to change tones and such. I've got a buddy helping me with it, and I fuck with it on my own.
