Get the official lowdown on the differences between the Les Pauls in the 2023 Epiphone Original, Modern, and Inspired by Gibson Collections
Looking to buy an Epiphone Les Paul but don’t know where to begin? In a new video on the Gibson Gear Guide channel, Dinesh Lekhraj explains exactly what you can expect from the guitars in every Epiphone Les Paul Collection, including the Epiphone Original Les Paul Collection, the Epiphone Inspired by Gibson Collection, and the Epiphone Modern Les Paul Collection.
In addition to identifying the key features of each model and how they appeal to players of various levels, styles, and genres, in this guitar demo video, Dinesh also gives us a brief model history of the Les Paul, name-checks some of the major Les Paul players, and offers some insight into why you need humbucker guitars if you like to play with high-gain and distortion. Spoiler alert: Epiphone Les Pauls absolutely love high-gain amps and distortion pedals!
Join us as Dinesh demos some of the most popular Epiphone Les Paul guitars from the class of 2023, including the Epiphone Inspired by Gibson 1959 Les Paul Standard and the Epiphone Les Paul Junior in Tobacco Burst (because we love P-90s too).
He also showcases options from the Epiphone Modern Collection, such as the Epiphone Les Paul Modern in luxurious Faded Pelham Blue, the Epiphone Les Paul Prophecy (a must for metalheads), and Epiphone’s Power Players Les Paul, which makes for a great travel guitar, the perfect choice as a first guitar for children and beginners, and a comfortable option for players with smaller frames.
Epiphone Les Paul guitars are the perfect addition to any collection. Although they make the ideal beginner’s guitar, they are also the perfect partner for touring musicians who may want to leave more valuable or vintage guitars at home. The Epiphone Les Paul is a fantastic platform for modding, but it’s also a guitar you don’t have to upgrade because the onboard pickups and hardware are road-ready and sound fantastic straight out of the box.
