2002 Epiphone Elitist Les Paul w hardshell Gibson Case.  Some light worming on the back, a few minor dings as shown in pictures, some light fret wear mostly in the 1st postion, and some light tarnishing on the pickups. All in all, this guitar is in very good condition. It is set up with nice low action, and the strings ring out clearly across the board. These guitars are gaining popularity and value all the time. Produced at the Fujigen factory in Japan,  USA pickups are stock.  Like all Elite and Elitist guitars, it is a world class instrument that's light years away from Korean and Chinese Epiphones in build quality.
