I will only ever get another guitar (which will be a les paul) if this one is wrecked beyond repair or just stops working, which will not happen for a LONG time yet.

Sound
this axe sounds so sweet, it has that 'les paul sound'. Fat lows but the highs are slightly brighter than a gibson. I would suggest putting seymour duncans in it as i am going to do in order to get rid of the feedback and unwanted noise that you get at high gain. Works wel through my marshall amp. I play mostly classic rock and some punk as well. I find it plays The Darkness exceptionally well, and of course led zeppelin. But I also experimented with some heavy metal and boy does she deliver!! Again the only problem was the feedback but it really isn't all that bad, you only REALLY notice it at High gain, otherwise its not a big problem. If I want to play 'I believe in a thing called love' by The Darkness and I do the massive string bend on fret 22, it sounds a bit weak. But then again it's not a gibson and the price states that well. verall its a mega superdooper cool sounding guitar.

Features
kinda hard to rate. 2 tone & 2 volume knobs, Mine came with chrome grover tuners allready on it. The bridge volume knob makes a crackling sound through the amp when i turn it past 1-2, but I don't care coz I never use it anyway. I'm not sure what wood its made of but I think its mahogany with flamed maple top and rosewood fingerboard. Front strap button has read more a tendency to work itself loose but its easy to tighten. I heard that the toggle switch craps out on a lot of these guitars but I don't know what's going on there, mine is still working perfectly after months of use. Maybe epiphone have got their act together and improved their guitars or something? and the finish is impeccable, the best i've seen. (Cherry Sunburst,the best!)

Ease of Use
Soloing is surprisingly easy on this axe but when I first got it I fond it difficult playing the high fret coz I was used to double cutaways ie Ibanez. Other than that its a breeze to play almost anything (except Joe Satriani or Steve Vai because it doesn't have a tremolo bar) Its solid and heavy, but not so heavy that it's hard to play, just that if you play for ages you start getting a bit of a sore shoulder after a while, but that solidity adds to the sustain.

Quality
This axe will stay for many years to come if you take care of it (GET A HARDSHELL CASE). Finish is superb, It still brings tears to my eyes. It is reliable and hasnt ever let me down.

Value
Hell yeah! I's way better to get this and change the pickups than buy a gibson for a ridiculously high price. And even with stock pickups wich are good, it's worth every penny.

Manufacturer Support
will never need to.

The Wow Factor
I got this axe because I'm a Classic rocker at heart and there was a gaping hole in my soul that told me I had to get this at any price. Plus I like the look and sound. This is the hottest ting i have ever seen. Period.
