Epiphone Slash AFD Les Paul Special-II Electric
Guitar
The Epiphone Slash AFD Les Paul Special-II looks amazing, and
at this price, with all the extras you're getting, is a steal. In
this case the classic Les Paul body shape is given a beautiful, AAA
flame maple top, combined with a cherry mahogany body, providing
the classic tone you would expect. Furthermore this guitar has been
equipped with a pair of the new Ceramic Plus humbuckers, for a
hotter, more aggressive tone that's more fitting of a guitar named
after Guns N' Roses debut album, and endorsed by Slash.
Also hidden one of the pickup rings is an addition that will
be much-coveted, even by professionals, the Shadow pickup ring
E-Tuner. Making tuning easy and discreet, just press the on button,
pluck a string, and the E-Tuner will tell you what your tuning is,
via a series of LEDs.
The Outfit
Making sure your Epiphone Slash AFD Les Paul Special-II is
protected when you take it out with you or just when it's not being
played, the Outfit comes complete with a Custom gigbag, which,
along with the Epiphone logo, features Slash's Snakepit logo. For
playing you have a set of Slash signature Dunlop Tortex plectrums,
a guitar strap, and a guitar cable.
Helping you on your way (if you are a beginner) is access to
eMedia online lessons. These introductory guitar lessons give you
feedback on melodies, along with a host of tools to help you along
the way, such as Note Tracker and Finger Tracker, which shows what
you're playing onscreen as notation and on an animated fingerboard.
Songs and exercises can also be played as audio or MIDI tracks,
allowing you slow them down or speed them up, so you can really
perfect your playing. There is also the option to upgrade the
lessons.
