Hot or Not? Epiphone Les Paul Florentine Pro

It's hollowed out with F holes. ProBucker pickups. 18:1 tuners.

Love the LOOKS and SOUND of a LP, but the playability for me-nah

the original LP Florentine actually had a Florentine cutaway. Neglecting that one bit makes this a total failure.

Not a fan, even if there wasn't the naming issue.

Yeah, I expected the correct cutaway, too. Disappointing on that front.

It's Gibson. I don't expect anything except total failure.

Aside from the stupid name this is a pretty cool guitar.

DFB · Aug 27, 2014

I like it.P90s would be better IMO.

Virtual Pariah · Aug 27, 2014

If I saw it on a rack, I'd try it.

Chicken Man · Aug 27, 2014

I like the Tele Thinline, but otherwise, adding f-holes to a solidbody sized guitar never looks right.

CBHScott · Aug 27, 2014

Tried one. Liked it. Very light. If I were to get another LP-type, it would top my list. Not kidding.

$600? Is that right?

CBHScott · Aug 27, 2014

Yessir. Maybe less with a Labor Day discount in-store.

Denverdave · Aug 27, 2014

I gotta go with not on this one.

PunkKitty · Aug 27, 2014

I tried one at GC the other day. I really like it.

Stratguy · Aug 27, 2014

I'm going to agree with Chicken Man. I like a good Thinline Tele, but f-holes on an LP just isn't right.
