This is a limited-edition version of Epiphone's number-one-selling model with a "worn" (matt NOT gloss) Cherry finish. The Epiphone Les Paul Special-I limited-edition electric guitar is a great way for beginners to get started on guitar with real Les Paul tone and feel. But seasoned pros also love the Special-I because it's a great-sounding, workhorse guitar that lets them leave their more expensive axes at home.
Basswood body with a bolted-on "1960s" SlimTaper mahogany neck featuring a 21-fret fingerboard with dot inlays. The limited-edition Special-I is voiced by a pair of hot open-coil Epiphone 700T and 650R humbucker pickups. 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 an intonated, one-piece wraparound bridge stopbar. PLEASE NOTE: this guitar has a professionally repaired headstock fracture (see final  photo). Repair has NO EFFECT on playability of the instrument. Basswood body. Bolt-on mahogany neck. 21 frets. D-shaped neck profile. Master volume, master volume controls. 3-way pickup toggle switch.  Nickel hardware. Intonated, one-piece wraparound bridge-stopbar. Covered, 14:1 die-cast tuners. Polyurethane finish. 24-3/4" scale. 1-11/16 inch nut width. 12" fretboard radius

All of my guitars have been fully tested and are functional. All of my guitars have been cleaned, detailed, and waxed, electronics flushed and checked for functionality. All of my guitars have been “set up”: neck straightness adjusted when possible, fingerboard oil treated (if rosewood/laurel), action set, pickup height optimized, intonation checked, to MY PERSONAL PREFERENCES ($60. Value at any Guitar Center). Please note: “setups” are not “one size fits all”. Your personal set up requirements might be different from mine, so, additional adjustments may be needed to suit your setup preferences. Also, for optimal sound and playing ease, I always advise buyers to put a new set of strings on the guitar, the brand and gauge of their preference. To protect the guitar from damage, string tension will be relieved before shipping per Reverb.com requirements. You will need to tune the guitar to pitch when it arrives.

functionality of an item as if it were “brand new” is not implied and cannot be guaranteed. Please read the condition description in my listing and study the Reverb.com definition for each condition grade. Please do not expect a “MINT” guitar if I have posted “GOOD” condition in a listing. BTW: if the guitar you are considering features a “tremolo arm” and you are unfamiliar with the device, PLEASE watch some free YouTube tutorials about a tremolo arm’s installation and use BEFORE installing and using the feature. I am not responsible for you stripping threads, breaking strings, and fracturing tremolo blocks learning how to properly install and utilize a tremolo bridge.
