This Japan-made Epiphone LPS-80 Les Paul Standard plays and sounds great! This LP has been tastefully tricked out with Bigsby tremolo. The transparent wine red finish looks fantastic, and highlights the natural woodgrain quite well, truly a top notch Les Paul both aesthetically and functionally!
The LPS-80 in wine red is a rare guitar in its own right, but to find one with a Bigsby is really unique here. As this is a Japan Domestic market guitar, it does have a Open Book headstock.
This guitar is in great shape, especially considering it is over 25 years old. As expected with age there is some cosmetic wear from over the years that includes light surface scratches, scuffs, and finish dents throughout the body with additional minor dings along the back of the neck and headstock. There's also a couple small finish chips located on the lower back side of the body. The holes from the previous bridge posts are also partially visible underneath the Bigsby tail piece. The binding and plastics have aged nicely from over time and the hardware shows light patina. The frets are in great shape, exhibiting only light play wear, playing great up and down the neck with plenty of life left. The electronics work as they should and this guitar is ready to rock!
This Les Paul comes freshly setup with D'Addario EXL110 .010-.046 gauge strings, and is playing great! The electronics were previously serviced with newer pots and Bumblebee caps. Outside of these replacements, and added Bigsby tremolo, the guitar is original.
