@@GustavoZepeda Hi, thanks for watching. Yes, this a 2018 Gibson LP Classic model. Is basically an “80s standard”, it has a regular tedious board, can’t remember exactly but it doesn’t have the flatter board starting on the 12th fret and a bit more curved from 1st to 11th. It is a rosewood board, it has the classic 9 hole weight relief body. From what I recall the electronics are 57 and super 57 on the bridge…oh and a satin finish vs the standard glossy finish. I hope this helps and enjoy your new guitar!

Hey there, thanks for watching….I have to say, this board feels great, can’t remember what variety was since rosewood was banned for a little bit with imports but is definitely a better kind of “rosewood”. Feels closer to Ebony than my other rosewoods feel to Ebony if that makes sense.

I got 9/42 on the 6th and 8/40 on the 12th…couldn’t find 9/42s for the 12 and didn’t want to go heavier. Thanks for watching. 👊🏼

Thank you, got it from Musicians Friend…had it in preorder for a little while until the order finally shipped.

No, is the “special edition” which is white, the regular one is the cherry red/Jimmy Pagr every one is familiar with. It looks like a Lifeson/Felder/Wylde but is not a signature model.

@@iavera I just saw a video of lifeson talking about the one he used in 2112. He did some work on it. It just happened that I see this video and looks so similar

Beautiful guitar by the way. I am an Epiphone guy my self. But not 12 string 😬

Neck EDS 1275

Hahaha as organic as it gets! 😂😂😂

Thank you! Should have turned the volume up you're right!

That sucks, sorry to hear that I had that happen years ago on a Jackson, and sort of recently on my LTD 1007FR but I ended up leveling the fret myself (15th on the high E). Are you exchanging for the same one?

@@iavera I took it to a place near my home Noll Guitars to have it repaired, they suggested I return it for another one. quite a few frets were bad, raised up, yes they could have repaired the guitar, but Noll Guitar said may be more frets woud give me problems sooner than later. I sent it back , more of them were expected to be delivered in a month or so. I ordered a case from musicians friend, because where i got the guitar from did not have a case for it. I still have the case. I got 40 more days to return the case. may be i get another one

@@iavera OK , so I am getting another one. should be in tommorow

another white one

Thank you! I’ll try that later today, I should have record a pedal off them on video. I was thinking maybe the amp settings were the issue. Thanks for watching 🤘🏼👊🏼

@@iavera the great thing about the DS is u can use it to ENHANCE and already distorted amp (like an OD) or use it as a full distortion. Rock on

Well…the thing is I was trying to find a distortion pedal to fit the Marshall. The head’s overdrive is ok but is missing something, the EHX metal muff is too trebly, so I got this one, way closer to what I want so I’ll keep tweaking. Thanks for watching! 🤘🏼👊🏼

@@iavera have you tried just using an overdrive in front of the Marshall?? You can get the exact same exact tone.

@@mark5150ty I have not, the amp has 2 overdrive channels. I find them A bit dry, I’ll record a video clean, each dirty channel, then the DS just for the sake of comparison…with the same guitar. Thanks for the suggestion! 🤘🏼

@@mark5150ty Another quick follow up...so I tried the Marshalls OD1 and OD2, then the DS. They all sound SO different in person then I recorded on the phone and all the differnce is volume...might post but sounds very similar, the dynamics are completely different.

@@iavera well the od1,od2, & DS are actually really distortion pedals not overdrive's, you should be trying klon centaur style, Tube Screamer Style, or a really good boost pedal. You set the amp slightly dirty and smack the front end with the volumes of the pedals turned up, you can turn up the drive to little bit to blend in but you want the actual overdrive from the amplifier by boosting the volume signal, then shape it with the tone knob on the pedal.

No case. Is one of those things...it would have been nice to have one but it would have taken way too much room, already have plenty of cases, thanks for watching. :D

Epiphone is a bit different than the Gibson 50s or 60s. I honestly say is something in the middle, is NOT a chunky 50s neck but not as slim as a 60s. Is more of a D shape neck. Thanks for watching 👍🏼

@@iavera Understood thanks for reply.

Yes! 🎉 planning to go see Petrucci next month looking forward to this song live.

Thank you 👊🏼🤘🏼

Thank you! Is my go to right now. Always at reach. 👊🏼

Hello, I got my from musicians friend, not sure if still in stock. Guitar center had them for some time too. Thanks for watching.

Hello, thanks for watching. Yes, it’s very comfortable. I do have to admit my 90s Kelly (waiting to be restored) was a bit more comfortable cause of the contour instead of binding.

Awesome!!! Sorry, Meant to reply earlier! Is such a sweet guitar. I Hope you’re having a blast with the Kelly 👊🏼🤘🏼

Yes, 2021 sorry I missed your comment! Got it hmm around may 2021.

Thanks you.

Awesome to hear, I’m glad you’re enjoying her! 🤘🏼🎸

Yes, absolutely. I am partial cause this is the same style guitar I played years ago so I was glad to get another one, and I’ll say it again, the neck is probably the or one of the most comfortable ones I have by far. Still fast and shreddy but not as small as a 90s Jackson…I have a JDR94, that’s a thin neck! Good luck and merry Christmas 👊🏼🤘🏼🎸

😂 why?! I have FR specials, regular FR, Jackson FR, an FR special for Schecter...they are all a bit different but none is a “bad one”. Thanks for watching 🤘🏼

No, just tuned it up and it was fine for a while, the only thing I’ve noticed after a year is the high E tends to go out of tuning randomly. Need to figure it out cause it looks fine, might need to change strings. I tend to clean them, just take good overall care so I don’t need to change them often. Right now is tuned standard (I’m pretty sure...) the action was right out of the box.

@@iavera that's good to hear about the action and how its held up after a year, thanks man. about your high e, maybe its the floyd rose? I've never had one myself, but I've heard they can be touchy sometimes.

I'm glad you like it, thanks for watching! Still definitely one of my "go to's" I still find the Kelly shape super comfortable.

Not that I’ve seen. It may vary in different countries. The only model without a trem that I’ve seen is in the JS series.

@@iavera oh ok great. Gonna consider them as a long term guitar. How does the fretboard feel???

Dang, time flies...still no issues whatsoever. Stays perfectly in tune, I am always making sure the term is parallel to the body, that sure helps. Still enjoying it a whole lot 🤘🏼!

No issues with the guitar, if I’m going to be extra picky then I’d say the 2 gold knobs are different but no way you can tell a couple feet apart. The neck and fretboard are flawless, smooth, no sharp ends (mostly cause of the binding), it’s a great guitar I haven’t had any quality issues at all. Good luck!

@@iavera Thanks!

Thank you!

This is an UNBOXING video as the title says, that's it. If you want to hear how it sound check out my other video. There weren't a lot of videos of this guitar when I purchased it, I figured posting an unboxing could help some people, I still need to work on how to properly record audio, I am sure the video helped someone looking for how the guitar actually looks beyond the stock photos. Thanks for watching.
