Excellent condition. No dings or dents. A few surface marks from handling and playing that are very hard to see. Blue flame top. Gibson pick ups and electronics including push pull tone knobs for coil splitting. Virtually no fret wear. I’ve read reviews saying this is one of the best if not the best Epi Les Paul they’ve produced. Comes with original hard shell case and case candy. A couple nicks in the case shown in the pics. Not interested in trades. Full specs below. Check out youtube for reviews. $575 shipping to continental US included

Mine had a Slim Taper "lower case" D, thin profile neck. How's yours ? That is one thing that is often omitted in ads and for me THE one thing that make me want to look more into it ... or not.

Year of built is also nice to know. Serial on these is funky and will not tell you the exact date, but a compilation of some sort has been made to at least decipher the year.

F-Serial used on LP Std'59/'60 models and Tribute/Plus models
This newest serial number system used by Epiphone is not yet completely deciphered.

'F' doesn't refer to 'Fine, Korea' - nor to 'Fuji-gen, Japan' - New "F" models are made in China.

This serial number system doesn't exactly tell the year - and doesn't tell the month at all.

  • Beginning with F300000 in late 2009 used on LP Std'59/Std'60/Tribute models
  • Continued around F310650~F311050 in spring 2012 on Tribute-Plus models
  • Continued around F305000 in 2011
  • Continued around F310000 in 2012
  • Continued around F317000 in 2013
  • Continued around F324000 in 2014
  • Continued around F330000 in 2015
  • Continued around F340000 in 2018

Boy, I bought a 98 that looked like yours 3 or 4 years ago but it had a cracked neck so I sent it back. It came with 2 or 3 pedals & for the $150 + like $40 in shipping, I often wondered if I shouldn't have kept it & tried the repair myself. It was still together, I just got worried that when it finally broke that I'd mess it up, when in fact because it came with the pedals, I should have kept it since I wouldn't have been out that much if my repair job failed, or looked too bad. Or just list it & sell it. It was one of those should-a could-a moments of mine....
