It’s not what purists call a Les Paul, by any stretch - but it suits me just fine. It’s also ridiculously out of your price range. I’m pleased with how it turned out, how it looks and sounds. To you, it’s the guitar, the end-all, be-all.

So here we are… new pickups in, and black PU rings/switch tip/ knobs. The pickups are a Seymour Duncan P-Rails at the bridge (hence the 3-way switch, this pickup can be a humbucker/P90/single rail !) and in the neck, A GFS Dream 180. Stripped down, a quick clean & polish, and a hole drilled for a 3-way mini switch. One of the covers fell off and revealed… zero wax. Well Sam, whoever you are - I don’t think much of those, sorry.

Right, those pickups… after a proper trial at home, the stock pickups were found to be very microphonic. Apart from the binding, this is going BLACK. Therefore, the headstock was changed to a refined version of Hondo 's Deluxe headstock around April 1990 (the same time Epiphone switched from an 'open book' headstock to their current 'clipped ear' headstock). The LSRC-402 was introduced in 1989 as a direct copy of the Gibson Les Paul, but they were likely pressured by Gibson to change it if they wished to continue producing Epiphones.

Fretboard inlays the nicer block version, tuners proper tulip shape… Fretboard inlays = dots.Įarlier Samick ASEs: thru-neck. My Samick “Artist Series Edition” (ASE) was apparently from later years of production, and some of it’s features weren’t the same as the models being raved about online… I got home and started further researching, what I found was a minor disappointment. The other reason for wanting something Les Paul ish, was that I’d previously got my hands on a couple of excellent pickups - but it turned out that they were made for the string spacing of Les Pauls, not my usual Fender-width spacing. I asked to plug it in, and had a go - everything seemed to work as it should. And what’s more, the price tag showed it had been reduced in price *four* times. I remembered reading favourable reviews of these guitars on forums, particularly their “Artist Series Edition” models, as this one was. Then I saw this Samick in a second hand store. One day I was musing how I’d never had a Les Paul, I mean not even a copy (which let’s face it, is much more likely, being a lefty, and a thrifty lefty at that).
