PRESS RELEASE WINTER NAMM 2005 Sister act We know what youre thinking. You couldnt play that thing down at The Dockers Fists. Maybe so but youll struggle to find an electric guitar that grabs an audiences attention like Epiphones new Twisted Sister Les Paul Standard. What did you expect from the signature model of Twisted Sisters Jay Jay French? Nothing epitomises 80s hair-metal quite like shocking pink A limited edition model for 2005, the Twisted Sister Les Paul is part of Epiphones Elitist series. Its based on the premium Elitist Les Paul Standard (and features the same build quality, comfort and styling), but strays from the design with several twisted flourishes. As with the Ultra Les Paul the Twisted Sister model also shaves a stoop-correcting scoop from the back of its body. In addition to the bands bone logo on the headstock and Jay Jay Frenchs signature on the truss rod cover, youve also got a pair of Gibson USA Burstbucker pickups perfect for delivering the searing riffs and dynamic response that characterised Twisted Sisters reign of terror and a free case to protect it from the rigours of touring. Throw in the Twisted Pinkburst finish and youve got a guitar thatll hold any crowd in the palm of your hand. And thats even before youve plugged it in Specifications: Colours: Twisted Pinkburst Pickups: Gibson Burstbucker-2/Burstbucker-3 Tuners: Grover Rotomatic Hardware: Nickel Scale: 24.75" Nut Width: 1-11/16" Neck: Set Neck Material: 1-pc Mahogany FB / Inlay: Rosewood/Trapezoids Binding: Body/Neck Body Material: Book-Match Mahogany Top: Book-Match Mahogany Bridge / Tailpiece: Tunomatic/Stopbar ======= Performance Is Our Passion EU press contact Gibson Europe BV Silvia Kleton email: silvia.kleton@gibson.com Telephone: +31 (0)347 32 40 10 UK press contact - The Big Fish Mick Calvert - email: mick@tbf2.com Telephone: +44 (0)1206 382224 For more information on all Epiphone products please contact: Rosetti Ltd, 4 Tamdown Way, Springwood Ind Est., Braintree, Essex, UK.
