Epiphone Ivory Les Paul?

Post by Axeman1956 »

I can;t find one anywhere. i saw one at my local guitar center, but it was used and in bad shape, not to mention it had a different pickguard, different humbuckers, and chrome hardware.... Someone ruined a beautiful guitar... Anyway, I want to try and get the Ivory because it looks really nice and supposedly it sounds bone crushing. Anyone know where I can look to see one?

Well in the UK they are pretty much non-existant :) and they were limited in the US I think right? I have heard of people ageing the white models before, I've never bothered myself.

I don't want to shoot down your desire to get one, but I would watch out for the quality. The Ivory models were made around the time Epiphone moved out to china, new factory, possibly inexperienced staff, aiming to keep costs down; you do the math!

Of course it all depends what you're looking for!
