I kept re-visiting the Epiphone website just to soak in the 2020 goodness. This one here is the LP Modern. That's right, there's an LP Modern in the current Gibson lineup & it's as modern as it gets - chambered body, asymmetrical neck profile, ebony fretboard, coil-splitting electronics & other modern appointments (forgive the pun). The good thing is, these are all replicated in the Epiphone version.
It includes the contoured neck heel & that's the bomb right there! There are some of us who are hoping deep down it would happen; that Epiphone steps up their game & follow Gibson closely because they are affiliated anyway. So Epiphone did just that & we have everything to look forward to when these hit the stores soon. I find this sparkling red finish very attractive; the sparkle isn't OTT & it's dark enough to exude class.
