I have just recently got a 2003 Epiphone Les Paul Custom, everything is stock. It all looks good so far except I was slightly upset by the pickup output level not being that high/loud. My main guitar is a 1993 Patrick Eggle Berlin Pro with (I think?) the standard Kent Armstrong pickups (they could have been replaced as I got it second hand a few years ago but have never taken them out to look….). The output from this guitar seems much louder than the Les Paul and I wondered if this was normal?
For some reason in my youth I just wasn’t attracted to Gibsons and preferred Jackson/Charvel and Fender guitars – I have a Patrick Eggle Berlin Pro and a New York Standard, a Japanese Fender Telecaster, a Charvel ‘super-strat?’ and Tanglewood & Ovation acoustics. This is the first Les Paul I have played for any length of time. It’s actually a Christmas present so it will be going shortly anyway, however I wanted to be sure everything is right before it goes.
Is there any technical way I can confirm the output level is correct? I was thinking of some sort of electrical meter or something….Thanks, Andy
