This isn't actually my guitar pictured, but the one I have is identical. It was made in 1998, bought by me in 2006 and now collecting dust. Before I start shopping it around, I want to know exactly what to call it. Epiphone Les Paul Special Double Cutaway? Epiphone Special Double Cutaway? Who knows the proper model name? When I bought it, I just knew it by sight...not by name.

i think it's 'Les Paul Special Double Cutaway' but really i'm just bumping the thread so ppl who actual know Gibson/Epiphone might see it and confirm/deny.

I finally found this image again after 25 years and I'm still wondering what this Kevin Shields guitar is - I'm also wondering if it's what they used for "Cigarette in Your Bed"http://41.media.tumblr.com/fca7f5ba9d0b91911e93c35e50eb4b22/tumblr_mg2h1oasD51rxbe9eo1_1280.jpg

It looks a lot like a washburn, honestly

Takamine. Verified with a photo from the loveless tour

Do you have a link to the photo? I've seen him playing another takamine around the same time, but it looked much thicker.

Yes! Probably something like that. The fender-shaped headstock threw me for a loop.

It's a pawshop special -- which doesn't make it a bad guitar necessarily -- I think it's more likely to be Japanese than European. A Teisco maybe?

pawnshop. no animals were harmed in the making of the guitar.
