Im F**king mad! Its still nice. My mate has an Epi LP custom' date=' almost as good as a gibby one....[/quote']

 

It's probably a fake Epi. Yeah the fakes are made by Gibson In the USA and smuggled to China and then shipped to you Brits.

I have been looking at guitars and' date=' maybe I'm mad... but I want an Epi.

This Epi.

 

ilg, you're not mad to want an Epi...there are quite a few Epiphones I wouldn't mind having myself! <g> In no particular order:

 

Les Paul Ultra II

Les Paul Black Beauty

Tony Iommi Signature G-400

1962 Wilshire Custom Historic

Prophecy LP Custom GX

Prophecy LP Custom EX

Prophecy SG Custom GX

Prophecy SG Custom EX

Prophecy Futura Custom EX

Prophecy Futura Custom FX

1958 Korina Flying V

1958 Korina Explorer

Casino

Any Elitist model

 

The only Prophecy models I'm not keen on are the EM-2's...I just don't like the body style. In the Prophecy line, I prefer the GX over the EX models...simply because I like the Gibson USA Dirty Fingers pickups better than the EMGs.

 

Having said all this, for about the same money ($800-$900 street price) you could get a new Gibson Les Paul Vintage Mahogany and you wouldn't have to say "would'a, could'a, should'a" six months hence. <g>

Completely Agree with You except for one thing:

Here in the UK, the Prophecys are about £600, which makes them cheaper than all but the melody maker in real Gibson standards. Secondly, correct, I am 13 guitarest.

Man, those prophecies are climbing in price arent they? I remember when they were released MFers had them at less than half of that price... damn... 1411 MRSP for an epi with just 1 volume and 1 tone control?

 

Take a look at the special II, you'll love it... 150 bucks and with 300 you can install emg pickups and a sticker (I am just kidding, of course).

How about the Ultra-II? I'm looking for something with a high level of versatility, and I thought the Nano-Mag might sound quite like a single coil (or have a more jazzy feel)? They are more or less the same price here in the UK.

I'm also diggin' the elitist series, but I can't seem to find them anywhere on the Gibson site.
