Matt Heafy Les Paul (6-string) availability

Can anyone give me the scoop on this guitar's availability? From what I gather it was limited to 1000 units last year. Of course I found out about it too late and it was mostly sold out everywhere (I'm in Canada). Then I'm browsing through Musicians Friend before xmas and I see this guitar listed again, availability listed as Feb. 2014. (I sometimes use MF as a reference guide) Then I see the NAMM vids, the guitar is shown there, as well as in the 2014 Epi. press kit. (http://www2.epiphone.com/press/new2014.html) I thought cool it’s coming back for 2014 at least. Today I’m browsing MF again; the guitar is no longer listed. I contact their cs, they inform me the guitar is discontinued and no longer in their system. Looking at one of the larger Canadian Epi. dealer websites, they list a category for 2014 Epis. and it’s not in there either.

What’s the deal is it going to be available this year or not, anyone know?

I'm not sure on whether this is considered a 2013 or a 2014 guitar, but both Musician's Friend and Zzounds show the Heafy 6 string as "in-stock."

I've seen cases before where a new item shows as "discontinued" when it hasn't even arrived yet. Not sure about Canadian availability, though.

I work at Sam Ash in Huntington NY. We have the Heafy's in stock and I can easily get you one. Private message me and we can discuss!
