Differences in LP's

Typically all Epiphones, and Gibsons for that matter, only have the name on the top of the headstock. In the case of Epiphones, aside from the brand new ones, the truss rod cover on the guitar will say "gibson." Newer ones say if its a Custom, Standard, or Studio. If it says Epiphone on the top than that's what it is. Epiphones and Gibsons have different headstock shapes. The way to define the model is by looking at the appointments on the guitar. Studios normally have no binding on the neck or body. Standards have trapazoid inlays and binding on the neck and body. Customs have like a Diamond shape on the headstock in some sort of pearl inlay, block inlays including one on the first fret, and multi-ply binding on the body on the front and back of it. Hope that helps.
