Epiphone produce a wide range of Les Paul models to suit all budgets and purposes.

Question: Does the Epiphone Les Paul have weight relief chambers?

Certain models over the years have been weight relieved but current models like the Standard and the Custom are not chambered.

Question: Are Epiphone Les Pauls Gibson copies?

Not at all. Since Gibson have owned Epiphone (or rather, they were both bought by the same conglomerate) since 1957, an Epiphone Les Paul is very much a 'real' Les Paul. It is made in China to a specific budget rather than crafted in the USA but the outline and design is the same. This is why Epiphone are allowed to display Les Paul's name on the headstock.

Question: What is the scale length of the Epiphone Les Paul?

All Epiphone Les Paul models have a scale length of 24.75". This is slightly smaller then 'standard', which is 25.5". The 24.75" scale length is extremely popular and is used on all Gibson guitars too.

Question: What is meant by a set neck?

A set neck, sometimes referred to as a 'glued in' neck is a method for joining a guitar's neck to its body. It is a more time consuming and expensive method than simply bolting a neck onto a neck pocket. Set neck guitars are known to have more inherent sustain. This is because the glued join effectively makes the body and neck one big vibrating piece of wood. Lots of Epiphone guitars, including the Les Paul Standard and the Sheraton, are made in this way.
