I love this guitar. Out of all that I've owned, it is by far my favorite. I would love to get a few more to keep one in every room of my house.
Sound
This thing is a beast! It sounds amazing and looks fantastic. The neck is buttery smooth, very easy to play. Sustain for days, and the Dimarzio'? I play through an all tube amp, and there's a reason Ace has stuck with them for this long..
Features
The three pickup design is Ace all the way, the guitar functions flawlessly.
Ease of Use
I have yet to get a bad tone out of this guitar. I imagine it also has to do with the amp ( I'm using a Crate V50-112)
Quality
This is a very dependable guitar, I do tend to be careful with it, the Gibson/Epiphone headstock weakness is on my mine at times. I wouldn't mind having a backup for that reason alone, but haven't need one yet.
Value
I think the value of this guitar is definatley worth the typical selling price. It sounds and plays far better than any Epi LP standard and looks really great. If you're not a Kiss fan, and can get past the inlays, the sounds this thing can produce would definatley be worth your time to check out.
Manufacturer Support
I've only emailed them with simple questions and have gotten fairly quick responses. Thankfully, I haven't need to get ahold of them for something else.
The Wow Factor
This is a smoking guitar!!
