It looks likes my blog is slowly becoming a Slash tribute blog .

It’s not though. I will be posting about a lot of Epiphone Electric Guitars and Epiphone news in the future but I love the Les Paul design and I love Slash’s guitar playing so of course this new model has caught my eye. I better start saving my pennies for it!

So until I do add other Epiphone content, check out the video on this beautiful Slash Epiphone Les Paul Goldtop and drool along with me!

I’m so excited about this one!

Here is one of the most beautiful guitar designs ever made and this guitar has been built with the input of one of my favorite guitar players… Slash!

The Limited Edition Slash Epiphone Les Paul Goldtop is built using many of the same traditional Gibson guitar building processes and techniques.

The neck is made of mahogany which is glued to the body using the same type of long-neck tenon that was used on the Gibson Les Paul’s from the late 1950’s to the early 1960’s. This long-neck tenon helps the guitar produce a sweeter tone and longer sustain.

The pickups used are Seymour Duncan Alnico Pro-II, which is the same pickups that Slash uses in many of his personal guitars.

The beautiful Goldtop finish is the same as they introduced on the original 1952 Les Paul Goldtop.
