Hi,

Epiphone Elite / Elitist Les Paul Standard for sale here.

If you don't know about the Elitist series, these are serious guitars, not the shitty standard production epiphones that you normally see. Pricewise, these instruments fall somewhere between a Gibson Les Paul and the mid range Epiphones. The Elitist series guitars, however are on par with the Gibsons in terms of quality. This guitar plays better than most Gibsons i've played, except some of the $4000 Custom Shop models. It's made in Japan (MIJ 2002) and manufactured in the same factory (Fuji Gen Gakki) as Gretsch and numerous other high quality guitars, made of top quality woods and fitted with American Pickups and hardware.

It's this guitar:

in the black finish. The Standard models were discontinued.

This one has some scuffs and light scratches, but is in great overall condition with excellent electronics and a straight neck. There is a chip in the paint on the back of the guitar near the bottom, and some buckle rash on the back, but overall it's in nice shape, just a bit worn from playing. It's black with cream binding, and has an FXXXXXX six digit serial number.

For sale for $550 with a gig bag or $650 with an Epiphone Hardshell Case. Or willing to trade for a White Epiphone Elitist Les Paul Custom (ELITIST / ELITE series only, not standard production epiphones) or an Edwards Les Paul Custom in Cream or White.

I work in Astor Place, NYC and live in Jersey if you want to do local pickup.

Shoot me an email if you're interested!

PICS: :)

Price lowered again to $625 shipped in hard case (paid with MO), because i love you.

Actually, because i need to buy a Strat. I'm just lusting for single coils right now.
