Orville Les Paul LPC-75 Ebony
Orville Les Paul LPC-75 Ebony
Orville (オービル), was a brand of guitars that was managed by the Gibson Guitar Corporation for the Japanese market during the late 1980s and most of the 1990s. The name is borrowed from Orville Gibson, who founded Gibson in 1902.
Now that that is out of the way, this guitar has every bit the look and sound of the classic Les Pauls at a price point that is a lot easier on the wallet. This has been an absolute joy to play and looks just as sweet.
The neck is chunky but comfortable, the body is well balanced and resonant, hardware looks and feels high quality and most importantly, the pickups sing, taking any mid-junky straight to heaven.
The guitar overall is in great condition for being almost 30. We really want this one to go to a good, loving home where it will get played every day for the next 30 years.
