How do I see if a particular model has it pre-installed or not? I don't see that on the Epiphone page, and all the stock photos show pick guards in place.

New to guitar here, but I paid about $50 to have my Special II set up a professional. He spent a lot of time filing and working on the nut. However, once his entire set-up was complete, I've had really no problems with the guitar staying in tune. I can tell that a lot of the components of this guitar are cheap (right away we had to replace the output jack). But I've been really happy with the tuning stability on mine.

I want to upgrade my Special II to a nicer Les Paul. I really like the look of the guitar without a pickguard - but I hate that pre-drilled hole. I know you can fill the hole, but which Epiphones come without one pre-drilled?
