    Intonating B & G Strings on Epiphone Electric Guitars

    My gas tank welder is Stan Beck. Food tasting courtesy of Howard M. Burgers, and my seat tester is Mike Easter. Don’t drive like my brother!!

    Epi Les Paul owners - Do you upgrade your bridge & tail piece?

    Fair point lol. Tuners were swapped because I wanted a mid-50’s style tulip tuner. I’m on my second set of pickups in it because I can’t stop fiddling, although the Wizz that are currently in it will never leave. Nut was swapped because it broke when I tried a set of 10-52 strings without filing...

    Intonating B & G Strings on Epiphone Electric Guitars

    Crap, I missed all of the fun again!! Figured this would be another troll post when I started reading through it.

    Epi Les Paul owners - Do you upgrade your bridge & tail piece?

    It’s the only thing besides the pick guard that I haven’t replaced lol. They work, so no need to fiddle with it

    Epi ProBuckers v Alnico Classic Pro Humbuckers

    Gibson used nearly every magnet under the sun, but A3 and A2 were most common in the early years of the PAF. A4, A5, and even A8 were used through ‘60, at which point the A5 became the “standard”.

    Amusing 'fake' Epiphone Explorer thread....

    I have a friend with a black 310. Neat guitars, but Strats aren’t my speed.

    "Go to" gear.

    I use either my Boss GT6 or AC15c1 depending on the gig size , but usually guitars are in this order: 1. Epi Les Paul Custom (Wizz pickups, 50’s wiring, gold bell knobs with thumb cutters) 2. Epi Jered JJN Les Paul Custom (modified with mini humbucker, gold speed knobs with thumb cutters) 3...

    Are finish cracks at the nut normal?

    Looks like a finish crack to me. Very similar to the one on my LP too.

    Looking at a 1998 "58 Reissue" Explorer

    An old band mate has had one for 7 or so years. His was a late 90’s, not sure what year exactly. It sounds good unplugged, but it’s a heavy beast. The factory electronics need to be thrown in the trash right off the bat IMO. Otherwise it holds tuning very well and played nice one he replaced the...

    Yea or nay ? Trad Pro IV on my radar

    When did prices drop that low?? Seems like they were selling in the $6-650 range last year or the year prior.

    Epi-Talk software update

    Just an update, this is working for me now.

    What (non Epi) guitar is 'on top' of your 'must have list'

    Talk about wide frets! I think those have a 50’s LP Custom beat out!

    A Gretsch... My Kingdom for a Gretsch

    Agreed, the only thing I would add is to use a 90 degree cable as well.

    Epi-Talk software update

    In case anyone else is having an issue, for whatever reason it’s not keeping me logged in. Yes, I did click the “stay logged in” box, at least the second time around and each time since lol. I’m using my iPhone for what it’s worth.

    I cancelled my 61 SG Les Paul order

    I used to remember the difference, but I’m not in the game like I used to be. Too many irons in the fire between my business and full time job to keep track of anything music related!

    I cancelled my 61 SG Les Paul order

    Whichever one that Epi has :thumb: I’ve seen it listed as both.

    Replacement knobs for Epiphone

    I think it was about 3 or so years ago that CTS started making metric sized pots. I’m surprised it took them so long to start making them!

    I cancelled my 61 SG Les Paul order

    I don’t own one, but hopefully someone will chime in. I personally am not a fan of coil taps and removed them from my Les Paul (I didn’t really use them), but I did do a magnet flip for phase reversal. I can really see the benefits of the various electronics for live shows where you’re limited...

    New LP Custom weight relieved?

    As far as I know, it’s not weight relieved. It shouldn’t be anyway, since Epi has only had a couple of weight relieved models.

    Now that’s one I can get behind!
