I've had my ER for a few days now and am very happy with the purchase. The nut needs replaced, but other than that, no qualms. It's in very good condition and looks great. It's a fine player and sounds good both plugged and unplugged. It also came with a TKL hard case and f-hole plugs to reduce feedback.

 

It's no doubt an Epi, but I found it odd that it doesn't have a label inside like I'm use to seeing in Epi hollow and semi-hollow bodies. It doesn't appear that one was there and fell out either...there's no residue to suggest there ever was a label.

 

The back of the headstock has no "2nd" or "Used" markings, nor does it have a SN that is transferred to the finish. There was a printout type sticker with a SN that would put it at a June of '96 manufacture date, a "Made in Korea" sticker, and the gratuitous "Setup and Inspected in the US by..." sticker.

 

Anyone ever seen an Epi hollow or semi-hollow with no inside label?
