Epiphone is Gibson's company, they own the name, they can name the models what they want. I had an Epi LP years ago, late 90s and I believe it had Les Paul on it.
Is it ok that Squier says Stratocaster on it?1994 Ibanez IC500 Iceman reissue
Jackson Soloist 7 string
ESP LTD M-400
Original Marshall Silver Jubilee 2553

I guess they can do what they want. I don't think I am the target market, but those do look better than the older Epi headstocks, and might be good for those wanting to spend less than $1.5k on an LP vs $3.5k.Administrator of the SDUGF

Just like I said in the ES-335 thread, these go thru the Custom Shop in Nashville and get a once over and upgraded everything nearly. That's as close as you'll get to a Custom Shop Les Paul without forking over the $3-4k price. I have no issue with them doing this.

Original 1981 Gibson XR-1. Good condition, plays great, no cracks or fret issues, original Gold Burst Finish and Dirty Fingers pickups. Used for many gigs, awesome vintage wearing and buckle rash. Neck plays fantastic. Rhythm pickup tone pot is a little temperamental, just needs a bit of tweaking.
