Slash "Appetite" Les Paul Standard

Slash and Guns N' Roses are credited with having saved rock from the trappings of poodle hairdos and posers of the mid-1980s. Through the hard-riffing guitar fury of tracks such as "Paradise City," "Welcome to the Jungle" and "Sweet Child O' Mine," their 1987 release Appetite for Destruction put real rock guitar back at the top of the charts, and it did so thanks largely to one man and one guitar: Slash, and a raging Les Paul. To celebrate this watershed moment in contemporary rock, Epiphone introduces the Limited Edition Slash "Appetite" Les Paul.

Built to provide all the power and the fury of a great Les Paul Standard, this instrument carries the prized tonewood, powerful pickups and electronics, and legendary rock-solid hardware that make for a sweet-singing rock machine. In addition, the Slash "Appetite" Les Paul reflects the look of a great flame-topped 'Burst, the guitar Slash championed with Guns N' Roses, and has since continued to make his #1 instrument with Slash's Snakepit, Velvet Revolver and numerous acclaimed solo and side projects. Through it all, Slash has put addictive riffs and eviscerating tone above all else, and the Les Paul has been there all the way to help him seal the deal. All this, and the Slash "Appetite" Les Paul is still possibly the most affordable means of bagging that Slash-style power and look for your own.

It's a unique guitar, from a unique player, and limited to only 3,000 units worldwide. When they're gone, they're gone, so check it out now at your authorized Epiphone dealer.
