Epi1, on July 2,2013 I purchased a epi les Paul IP90 special as a b-day gift for a friend new with box from G.C. in las Vegas (it plays awesome) it had a manual,poster,sticker,allen wrench no 10' cable. On July 14,2013 I went back to las Vegas G.C. online it showed they had a epi SG special in store and when I got there they couldn't find it so I started looking around and I found it, only problem was the neck was broken. They ordered another one and had it sent to my home I opened the box and the first thing I see is the sticker and poster were bent in half and ruined there was no manual , no inspection or made in decals anywhere on the guitar, all 4 neck screws were loose by a good 1/4 inch , the protective film was gone from the pick guard and there was no 10' cable and this came from epi direct to my home. On July 17-2013 I took it to G.C. they credited me and I purchase my new epi les paul traditional pro that I just love but they didn't have a box or the sticker,poster,allen wrench and for sure not a 10' cable. It also didn't have the straplocks on it but I have all ready been in contact with Gibson and they are sending the straplocks to me. Now I was in need of a new cable and ended up buying one along with a gig bag until I can afford a hard case. But there is 3 New epi guitars I have had in 30 days and not one had a cable.
