Epiphone Slash Les Paul Goldtop - Sold Out Worldwide?

[bgeek]

Hi all,

 

Are the Slash LP Goldtops sold out worldwide? I'm trying to get hold of one in the UK, but they all appear to be sold out in the 4 registered dealers.

 

If not, is there anywhere else stocking them that I can get one from for a reasonable price delivered to the UK. It was supposed to be a birthday gift. My mistake! Doh.

 

I'm not building up my hopes as I realise for now they're limited edition

 

Cheers all,

Hi,

 

Thanks for getting back to me. Yes, I saw the Guitar Center stores as listed as stocking them, however, their website indicates that you can only buy them "in-store" and since I am in the UK this therefore rules me out of buying one.

 

There are only 4 registered/authorized dealers in the UK on the Gibson website and each had sold out of their quota. One in particular said they only had 6 to begin with.

 

I emailed Epiphone about this and they said they were "limited edition", which is somewhat unfortunate and as you point out, they are still available in the US, but not in the UK.

I think I've seen them on Musician's Friend.
