In Spring of 2021 I bought a Epiphone Les Paul Special from the Inspired by Gibson line. First picture is of it stock. I was surprised by how good the pickups are for a guitar of this price range, but was left wanting more from the bridge and tuners. A couple months after buying, I put a Gotoh 510-ub bridge which is a wrap-around with adjustable saddles. Big difference in intonation as well as sustain. Recently,

I recently picked up a set of Kluson Revolution tuners for a good price and installed them today. Easy swap and looks much better. Should be more stable too. The stock "Epiphone Deluxe" tuners are 14:1 and the Kluson Revolution are 19:1. So far it's holding pitch better when bending but will need more time to tell for sure.
