I have a MIK epiphone les paul which i wish to get rid off since I'm no longer playing guitar.

how much can i sell it for? pups have been upgraded to tonerider (bridge) and Dimarzio PAF (neck). coils have been spilted too
 
depends on how much you want to sell it for, and how much people want to buy it from you =)

also, Les Paul Custom? Standard? 100? Special II?
 
well i do agree with your statement, just that i have really no idea how much is it worth as it's been so many yrs and i already forgot the price i bought it for either.

it's either a custom or standard

lets see, are your inlays square or trapezoid? hardware gold or chrome? pickguard black or cream? headstock have that custom "diamond" inlay thing or does it say "les paul"? does it come with a hardcase?

many ways to differentiate a custom and a standard. You can check Swee Lee's website to get the rough price of the Epiphone Guitars, do note that Swee Lee's prices tend to be higher than regular prices so take Swee Lee's quoted prices with a pinch of salt.

From there, depending on the condition of your guitar, deduct accordingly. =)

Well upgrades (generally unless highly desirable) don't really increase the value of the guitar, only slightly.
You should be looking at anywhere between 50-75% of the current brand new price. Then, of course, MIJ are more desirable, followed by MIK then MIC/MII.
 
Just follow the market price on the buy/sell forum and you'd be fine. Do take note of your guitar's condition and price accordingly. If your everything is good, you'll get offers soon enough. Good luck.
 
take a picture for us to see! in any case guitars that are left aside for too long have a tendency of having a warped neck and other set up problems so be sure to take note of those things before selling.
