I love the sound and the feel is great, but i kinda dislike the look, i even thought of it and selling it and buying a white Epi custom, i dunno, any suggestions?

I Had the same exact guitar. I Put a creame pickguard,PuP rings and selector switch on mine... It looked 10x better.:)

You gotta love a black guitar, you can just change the hardware anyway you want it and it will still match the guitar. Just change the pickup rings, knobs, pickguard (or just take it off), and pickup selector knob and you can get a really classy looking guitar.
 
Re: mixed feelings about my LP

yeah .. agreed, add a cream pickguard and maybe you would like to have white/zebra pickups pickups also

you could change it as suggested above ,and that would look good too, but i like the way it is.

I think it looks fine as it is. However, I also think this is a great idea...

If you do that, and also add amber knobs and double black pups, you'll be approaching something that looks like this. :D :fing2: :banana:

Except the binding of course...

Again, cream guard, pup rings, open coil humbuckers (black or zebra), amber knobs.

Get a shattered glass graphic painted on it.
Zakk Wylde had one when he first joined Ozzy's band.

+1 my old standard, but I'd lose the gold pup covers

Re: mixed feelings about my LP

dramatic difference for minimal bucks...

pup rings, guard, switch rings, gold knobs
 
Re: mixed feelings about my LP

When I first stated thinking about getting an LP that's exactly what I was thinking of doing. I think that it would look great with the cream parts.

Sure looks good.

Nope, Black Beauty's are just that.. beauties:D

Dude, Crispy, take covers off the pickups, throw in some chrome pup rings, ditch the pickguard, and leave the knobs.
