I couldn’t really understand what you were on about but that’s what came to mind.. That’s a SG Carved Top in Ocean Blue Burst.

Rest In Peace Les Paul! Doesn’t answer the question, but i thought it needed to be said

It would depend on the cosmetic and electrical condition. You are probably talking about an ES 335 because LesPauls are solid bodies. I would be interested in buying if you can send me some photos.

i want to buy an epiphone les paul in a cream color but i don’t know were to buy one. i want one that looks just like randy rhoads gibson les paul but in an epiphone.

Try this site. They always have some.

i was wondering if a 1957 gibson les paul custom is a good guitar to play heavy metal, screamo, hardcore, type stuff on. thanks

It doesn’t really matter what you use. No matter what you have you can always make it sound like what you want buy the effects and the amp you run the guitar through. So i am sure you could get it to sound anyway you want. I prefer any guitar with active pickups like EMG’s.
