Epiphone Les Paul Tribute Lefty vs Yamaha Revstar Element RSE20L

Both are left-handed, set-neck, 24-3/4-inch humbucker guitars. The Epiphone Les Paul Tribute is the traditional pick: a familiar Les Paul shape, mahogany body and top, Tune-O-Matic bridge, and a feel most players already know. The Yamaha Revstar Element RSE20L is the more modern build: a chambered mahogany body, a three-piece satin-finish neck, a 12-inch rosewood board, and Yamaha's VH3 Alnico V humbuckers. Owners of the Les Paul line praise the classic tone and looks but often note the weight and a plain top; Revstar owners tend to praise the neck feel and lighter chambered body. Pick the Epiphone for the Les Paul sound and look, the Yamaha for comfort and a faster neck.

• Choose the Epiphone Les Paul Tribute if you want the classic Les Paul shape, tone and Tune-O-Matic setup in a left-handed guitar.
• Choose the Yamaha Revstar Element RSE20L if you want a lighter chambered body, a satin three-piece neck and modern Alnico V humbuckers.
