-- Choosing the right Les Paul model can be challenging due to the brand's broad catalog and overlapping features. Sam Ash aims to simplify this process by breaking down each series' distinct characteristics and suitability for different playing styles and experience levels, so guitarists can easily compare models, understand technical specifications, and make informed purchase decisions.

"When it comes to Les Paul guitars, Epiphone occupies a uniquely important space," says Sam Ash. "Many players have a burning desire for a Gibson Les Paul, but are constrained by the realities of their cost. That’s where Epiphone comes in. The Epiphone Les Paul provides a more affordable option, which comes near to rivaling an authentic Gibson—after all, Epiphone was acquired by Gibson in 1957."
The guide covers Epiphone's complete Les Paul range, including models such as the Special, Standard, Custom, Modern, Muse, Prophecy, Studio, and Junior. It highlights key differences in build quality, tonewoods, electronics, neck profiles, and finish options across various series and price points.
The guide also helps those new to electric guitars or transitioning from other brands, with explanations on pickup types, hardware variations, and tonal impacts.
To further support buyers, Sam Ash has integrated its Gear Experts program into the resource. This service connects customers with real musicians and sound engineers who provide one-on-one guidance via phone, chat, or email. Prospective buyers can use this channel to evaluate compatibility, ask questions about tone and feel, and compare features before finalizing a purchase.
"Our Gear Experts understand that selecting the right instrument is an important step in a musician's journey," said a spokesperson. "This guide reflects our century-long commitment to helping players find the gear that best matches their goals and preferences."
