The Epiphone LP Special II is a great way for beginners to get started on guitar with real Les Paul tone and feel. But seasoned pros love the Special II also because it's a great-sounding, workhorse guitar that lets them leave their more expensive axes at home.
Superior Materials and Design Makes a Superior Value: The authentic LP power starts with an all-Mahogany, trademarked Les Paul body with a bolted-on "1960's" SlimTaper(TM) Mahogany neck featuring a Rosewood fingerboard with dot inlay. The Special II is voiced by a pair of hot open-coil Epiphone 700T and 650R Humbucker pickups, giving it massive, unmistakable Les Paul tone. Like all of Epiphone's electric guitars, it comes standard-equipped with 500K potentiometers for the master volume and master tone controls, plus Epiphone's heavy-duty 3-way pickup selector toggle switch and exclusive non-rotating heavy-duty output jack. This value-champ also now features Nickel hardware including the Epiphone LockTone(TM) locking Tune-o-matic bridge and Stop-bar tailpiece for amazing sustain and even more mind-blowing value. It comes in your choice of Ebony, White, Heritage Cherry Sunburst, Vintage Sunburst finishes and also in a special Wine Red version with black hardware. There is even a left-handed version in Heritage Cherry Sunburst or Vintage Sunburst finishes for southpaws.

Compared to other LP's copy of other budget brand this indeed still d best. I owned a handed-down Gibson LP Jnr, so I thought of getting another LP for my son. We tried other similar ranged price of LP's copy in d market, and yes this LP Spc II is indeed within the quality and worth for your money... Or maybe I was lucky to get a good one at SV... Andrew let me try a few before I decided to get it... Rally was good... if you not after the brand... But be careful, I have heard that the QC for this Epi is not constant/ standard... some other shops might sell you a sub-standard... I trust SV and Andrew really let me try to my satisfaction b4 buying it...
ps: I sold a newly bought Epi Lp jnr from S***L** coz it was a crap, bought a CRaftman guitar (which is more expensive) but return to the C***M**** shop coz it was a defective products! Finally I got this LP Spc II from SV and it was worth it!
