Re: Best Les Paul Copy ?

Iv got the GAS bad for a LP but just cant afford one right now, I have a budget of around 200-300 so I thought I might be able to find a decent LP copy. Iv seen the Agile, Arbor, and ESP models all for around $ 200.00 ea. Has anyone tried any of the ones I listed and if so what did you think ?

Re: Best Les Paul Copy ?

the best copy of LP is the USA The Heritage series actually they are not LP copies cause original LP's are made by the craftsmen of The Heritage INC. before Gibson factory in Kalamazoo was moved to Nashville leaving the craftsmen behind and they continue producing great hand made guitars there...the quality is far better than the newly produced gibsons...the only fact they're not called LP is because of Gibson's copyright...

I don't recall the last time I've seen a Heritage for $300.

Epiphone?

Re: Best Les Paul Copy ?

Thanks everyone for all the suggestions, it was a big help.

Re: Best Les Paul Copy ?

Burny and Greco are two other "lawsuit" brands that usually go for way less than Orvilles or Tokais and generally represent an excellent value.

FWIW - this is my Tokai LS75Q, which is a '59 re-issue and has got PAF pups on them and really very nice - it was made in '99.

Re: Best Les Paul Copy ?

There is a company in Britain that makes an excellent LP copy called Vintage for the price range you mentioned, heard good things about them. by the way orville is a japanese company authorized by Gibson to make LP's enuff said.
