Epiphone Les Paul
This cherry sunburst Epiphone Les Paul has been around since my early teens. It was one of the first guitars that taught me how easy it is to disappear into playing and spend time in a world of your own.

The Story
Section titled “The Story”This guitar followed the loss of an earlier Stratocaster-style guitar. I played the Epiphone constantly. More than any specification, that is its importance: it showed me what “being in your own little world” with a guitar could mean.
The exact model variant, production year, serial-safe factory details, pickups, and hardware still need to be checked directly on the instrument. Until then, this page keeps memory and confirmed detail separate.
