Les Paul Standard Reviews

I have 4 guitars and this is the one I play least. Not because I like it less or that it doesn't sound good but because I love it so much I am genuinely a little bit too frightened to give it the 'rock and roll' roll out! I bought this guitar about 7 years ago and to be fair I have used it loads at gigs, jams and just playing at home I ...  Read the complete review

Probably one of the best guitars around nowadays. What an incredible sound. I currently own a Les Paul Standard and a Fender, and my playing sounds 70% better on the Les Paul then on the Fender for various reasons. Firstly, the neck made of mahogany is so well bilt, that my hand runs smoothly up and down the fret board. Secondly, the ...  Read the complete review

After owning and playing an Epiphone Les Paul LP100 (the most basic one!) for several years and only dreaming of owning a 'real' Les Paul I thought it was about time I upgraded and managed to get one relatively cheap from a friend who works in the music industry. I must say the difference in moving up from an Epiphone to a Gibson is a ...  Read the complete review

What can I say? I've had my Gibson Les Paul for years now, and it is easily the best guitar I've ever played! Not only is it beautiful, but it's incredibly nice to play. As for the price, well... There's just too much to say about this guitar, so I'll do it in lots of stages. APPEARANCE: Incredible! When I first started ...  Read the complete review

An Introduction A few montha ago I decided that it was time I purchased a new electric guitar. My faithful 1988 Gibson Les Paul has served me well for the last 9 years and is still going strong. The thing is though it’s now starting to increase in value and become a nice little investment so it could do with spending a bit less time on ...  Read the complete review

I had a wee read through the Les Paul ops and I thought, why has no-one written one more than about fifteen lines long? I am quite possibly the worlds most novice guitar player, and I even I can see the greatness of a Les Paul, its probably one of the most revered sold-bodied electric guitars. If you’re a non-guitar playing person, ...  Read the complete review

As i developed as a guitarist, i got to a point where i realised that i had to upgrade to a higher quality guitar. This wasn't hard as i only had a mustang fender copy, with its tinney sounding pickups and bad intonation. I chose to upgrade to a Gibson Les paul standard, which i bought privately, secondhand. Yet, i discovered something ...  Read the complete review

Ahh the Gibson Les Paul Standard, probably the.... NO definitely the greatest guitar ever made, well if you want to play rock music. Many famous musicians are known to play these guitars, most famous of all Slash of Guns N' Roses and Slash's Snakepit who plays an 87's standard. The guitar gives an amazingly strong heavy sound ...  Read the complete review

A favorite of metalheads and punkrockers for ages, the Gibson Les Paul standard is one sexy instrument. With an excellent crunchability distorted and a distinct, ringing clean tone; the Les Paul must be one of the greatest guitars in existence. But because of its high price range, many prospective guitar buyers do not consider it or go to ...  Read the complete review

The Gibson Les Paul has got to be one of the all time famous and recognisable guitar shapes around. It has been copies many times but is yet to be matched by anyone other than the brilliant Gibson Company. The Guitar gets its name after the designer of the guitar, Les Paul who was an employee of Gibson in the 50's and 60's. It is a ...  Read the complete review

I recently purchased a Les Paul Standard (an Epiphone one I have to admit) and I find that it is superb value for money. Its price, when I bought it was £300 and it is definitely worth it. It looks great, very similiar to the real thing, and more inmportantly, it plays extremely well. It could not really be better for the price. Mine is a blue ...  Read the complete review
