Epiphone Les PaulEpiphone guitars are inspired by Gibson and made for guitarists of all abilities. I believe the world needs more guitarists, and Epiphone is making that happen by creating high quality musical instruments available at your local Best Buy at great prices. In fact, order it online—you’ll be very happy with the guitar and be learning to play your favourite songs in no time. On the blog we’ve been testing some of these guitars, and now you can enter for a chance to win one.

Do you have a guitar player in your family?

There are too few guitarists on this planet. The recent passing of the legendary Eddie Van Halen made me wonder if we are replacing guitarists fast enough. How many people in your family play guitar? My answer … not enough! This should be the age when everyone you know can play. After all, great quality instruments have never been more accessible or affordable. Holiday season is approaching and Best Buy has a huge selection online that you should really consider when creating your gift list.

And great quality instruction is readily available too. You’ve probably heard that many of the great players, like Eddie who I just mentioned, never had a formal guitar lesson. He would have likely learned a lot faster if he had the one tool that all guitarists use now … the Internet. Or you might already know a guitarist who can provide some initial lessons. I taught both my children to play guitar, and the first guitar I bought for them was an Epiphone.

Mama let that boy play some rock and roll

The 3 Epiphone Les Paul Special I prizes for this contest will enable you to play lots of musical styles, including heart-pounding rock and roll. We sent the prizes for this contest to Nikolai so he could test them out and give you an honest review. Read his article and watch his video and you’ll see that these are serious instruments that any guitarist would love.

As you saw in the video, these guitars can rock with a great tone and easy playability. If you like what you see, you should enter for a chance to win one of these guitars.

How to enter

Entering this contest is easy, and you can enter once below this article and once below Nikolai’s review article. In a comment, tell us who in your family needs to learn how to play guitar and what song they should learn first.

What you can win

At the end of this contest we’ll choose three (3) people to each win one of the three Epiphones Les Paul Special I guitars that were reviewed by Nikolai.

This contest runs from Oct 14th until Oct 27th.

Remember, you can enter once here on this contest article and once on the review article. However, you should also share this with your drummer friends, and your keyboardist friends, and tell them if they win, you’ll gladly take their prize and join their bands.

  5. I would love to learn to play the guitar again. I played a long, long, LONG time ago, and would love to pick up a guitar and play again.
    The first song I would play would be Smoke on the Water, as it’s the only song I remember how to play.

  10. My husband needs to learn how to play guitar and he would play “house of the rising sun” by the Animals

  12. I play a little bit but I’m working on getting better, I’d love to play a song Tears in Heaven by Eric Clapton

  13. I’d love to win this for my husband. He already plays guitar and loved Eddie Van Halen too. I’d love him to learn Eruption by Van Halen but I’m not sure his fingers could move that fast. Brilliant.

  14. My son Gabe. He is learning through a course at high school. His Grandfather could play, but he passed away recently before he had a chance to teach him. I’d like him to learn Music & Friends by Simani, one of his Pop’s favorite songs.

  15. I need to learn to play the guitar because I haven’t learned anything new during covid except how to sew a mask. The first song I want to learn is Smoke on the Water by Deep Purple.

  17. I myself need to learn to play guitar, I’ve been at it for a few years and I’d learn to play Rearview Mirror by Pearl Jam.

  20. My brother would like to learn how to play the guitar. I think the 1st song he would learn is The White Stripes Seven Nation Army.

  24. My wife is learning acoustic guitar, but electric would be a nice addition to her repertoire. Together with my keyboard skills, we could form a little band. 🙂 The first song she will play on this Epiphone Les Paul Electric Guitar is John Mayer’s, “Waiting On The World To Change” because that is what’s needed now.

  26. I would like to learn to play the guitar myself. There are so many great songs, new and old, that I would like to learn to play – its hard to pick one. I would probably start with something by Eric Clapton, like Layla.

  28. My husband! It would be great if we could play together. We’d probably learn to play anything by Alt-J 🙂

  30. My 9 year old really wants to learn to play guitar – she would want to play Shut Up & Dance by Walk the Moon

  31. I need to learn to play guitar and obviously the first song should be Wonderwall. Lol. It’s a cliche for a reason;)

  33. Our son used to play and only recently picked up an old guitar again. His son is 4 yrs old and wants to learn too. He’s been through a lot and is now here to look after me while I battle cancer. Would be a great distraction for him. Good luck everyone!! I don’t know where this crazy world would be without music!!

  34. I’ve been wanting to get back into playing guitar and I always wanted to learn Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard

  35. My 8 year old son needs to learn how to play guitar! Hes so musical and creative. I’ve been thinking about signing him up for guitar lessons.

  36. I have been trying to learn to play guitar since being in quarantine. I have been taking care of my 73 year old father and I have to keep him safe and sound during this time and have not left my home in 214 days. Even with all of the extra time I have had very little progress with the guitar. I would love this guitar, it is so profoundly better then my Washburn. The song I have been going back and forth to, but still with no success is Home by the Monowhales. Thank you for the chance and everyone please stay home and save lives.

  37. I really need myself to learn guitar as I’d really like to play The Messiah Will Come Again from guitar master Roy Buchanan.

  38. Great way to keep busy in the dark of winter. I’d love to learn to play The Cult’s Love Removal Machine.

  39. My daughter ! She wants to learn Guitar and play her first song which one she loves most is “Ed Sheer-an Perfect “

  43. My sister definitely needs to play guitar and learn to play Alessia Cara’s “A Little More” first! She loves that song!

  44. I want to learn, but my bro Marc has been trying for long time now. I was more of a drummer myself.
    He should Learn Sweet Child and I’d prolly start simple… whatever that means

  47. My daughter Danica should be next to learn how to play guitar. I think she should learn true colours cause she loves to sing it.

  48. My son. He asked for a guitar when he was younger for Christmas and he got a basic one but he would like to pick it back up again. He can learn to play Ave Maria
