cactuseskimo will become famous soon enough
Anyone know this guitar?

No, I don't have a picture, and I can't even find one, but I remember like 8 or 9 years ago, I was in a music shop and saw this epiphone guitar.

It was all white (or off-white) and a Les Paul shape. The weird thing is was that it only had one humbucker (bridge), and it also had some sort of fine tuning system on it. I don't think it was a tremolo, but just some fine tuners. I don't recall it looking like an aftermarket Bad Ass bridge either.

Other that that, I don't think it had the traditional Epiphone script on the headstock they have now, and it may have had an EMG style pickup in it.

Anyway, I have no idea what guitar that was, any thoughts?

The single pup makes me think LP Jr. too. I've seen a few tailpieces with "fine tune" adjusters on them, maybe that is what you are remembering, the first one I recall seeing was on a Rolland Synth guitar. (sometime mid to late 70s I think)

It wouldn't be an original LP Jr, but not a copy, either. Epi is part of Gibson and entitled to use the LP name.

So do you equate Epi LP's to Gibson LP's???

Apples and oranges IMHO.
