Epiphone Les Paul Standard Korea 1996 HS LT-Neck
This Paula is a real gem! 😍 In beautiful, original Heritage Cherry finish, it looks like it just left the shop – and that’s after almost 30 years. Incredibly well cared for and barely played. I’m the second owner – before me, it spent 30 years in the hands of the original owner, mostly at home. And you can tell: almost no playwear, and the frets were still in great shape – just a few high spots, which we carefully leveled and polished.
The neck is comfortably slim – almost modern – and feels amazing in the hand. It plays super smooth, completely without resistance. It sounds exactly how a great Les Paul should: fat, warm, with wonderful sustain and that singing note that instantly makes you smile 😎🎶
Highlights:
🔹 Original pickups
🔹 Long Tenon Neck! (Not only on the Czech models, but also on some Korean ones – like this beauty!)
🔹 In very nice original condition. Nut has been replaced with a Graphtec.
🔹 Neck truss rod is the same type as Gibson’s
🔹 Excellent craftsmanship & top-quality materials – typical of Korean-made Epiphones of this era
🔹 Despite being nearly 30 years old, it looks almost new. I’m the second owner – 28 years in one home in Munich, played only occasionally.
Conclusion: An exceptionally beautiful, well-preserved Standard with character – not only stunning to look at, but also a fantastic-sounding instrument. Anyone who’s played a Korean Epiphone from this era knows exactly what this is.
Frets leveled and freshly set up – everything is spot on.
