NGD: 1989 Epiphone Pro

So.. this happened! I traded a couple cheap-ish guitars and ended up with this gem. With some research, it looks like it's a 1989 made in Nashville. It's my favorite guitar I've ever owned so far, and that's a pretty long list. I've only had it 2 days, so I hope the magic doesn't wear off! Let me know if you want any other pictures or have questions. :)

 

Anyone else have one? Before I did the trade, I found little to no information on them.
