Tell me more about my guitar

Sign in to disble this ad
I have this guitar I got from a friend, and all I know is that it's an Epiphone Les Paul Studio bought in the U.K. Can someone tell me what specific model/year this is and perhaps how much it's worth?

Thanks a bunch!

You removed a volume control to install a "kill switch" on a LP?

You do realize that if you roll one or the other of the volumes off, the toggle becomes, in effect, a "kill switch."

I still don't understand the popularity of the kill switch, at all.

To kill the signal, killswitch only requires a press, toggle requires you to push it down then pull it back up. Also, the toggle is broken, as you can see in the picture.
