ninety1vee Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 any REAL custom is worth way more than $1300 USD, no matter how ugly (ZW LP=;) ) they are can you make a link to the ad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dem00n Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Its not bad for metal...you know what if u buy the epi verison its the same thing pretty much i played both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bullseye99 Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 just because it has the paint job and the emg pick-up this guitar is labeled a metal guitar . i have to disagree firstly the bullseye les paul is in my opinion the finest gibson custom shop guitar on the market and the fact that people percive the emg pick-up as a ''metal ''pick-up is way off the mark,emg pick-up are by far the most sonically tuned pick-up on the market whither it be for clean/overdrive these will deliver. so to your question ........yes they are worth it=d> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildbird5150 Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 I'm not into signature gear but if you like Zakk, his design and the fact that the EMGs are in it then give a chance, it's awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hank Boomer Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 boss, i play the ZW epihone for couple of years now, i have to say that i was really amazed by the quality they give for the price (at my time it was 900 euros and not 700 like today) the sound is really good, the "lutherie" or lute making is quiet good, the point is that the cream colour is turning to yellow with the years saying that, you can't get a Gibson custom quality for 900 euros or 700 today ... i mean that is simply impossible and this is also a guarantee that the one you'll get from the gibson custom shop definitly worth it in my opinion price is a sign of quality as i say "price is forgoten but quality stays" anyway, i just found one of the last available ZW Gibson custom in france and ordered it yesterday, i will let you know next week the big and major differences between epiphone and gibson i really beleive it worth the price, i talked a lot with owners, tried one, etc .. this guitar is amazing, i mean, i really enjoy gibson guitars (even if as in all industry, you can get something wrong in some details, **** happens) i will add another point, whatever you buy, any kind of guitar, with the years i understood that i only have to buy american .. there are 2 kind of guitars, US made ... and the others Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
