I loved this guitar until I bought a 2008 Gibson version.

It's an early Korean one - very good quality, like a decent Mexican strat, not at all like some of the later stuff I've seen

The guitar has a few normal-use marks and nicks, good condition I'd say though, the most major is a small patch near the controls where the varnish is missing a flake , but it's not very noticeable.

Comes with original hard case. My mate bought this new and left a candle on it while he was entertaining some young lady,so a bit of was has set onto the case, no big deal really, just saying because it's a nice story

 I think the Epi LP from this era goes for about £240 usually

However, the original pickups are awful - really nasty cheap ones

This month I had some Kent Armstrong Sky ones fitted professionally (i.e. I paid for an hour of bench time), which are good, and 4 new pots at £4.80 each

With the Kent Armstrongs, I'd sell it for £260.
If you can solder, you can swap them yourself (I need the EMG pots, I have the originals here), I'd want £240

You can have it with no pickups, and the pots in a bag for £210

 

 

swaps possible with cash adjustment. Not sure what though. Active EMG sets, Strymon FX, a top-notch compressor, a national clone
