I was at the Gibson Garage store recently and they have a whole room with Epi Guitars. I was really impressed with the Epi’s. I was looking for an Epi Les Paul Special in TV Yellow. They didn’t have one on display or I might have bought one right there.
HNGD! Second all the praise for Epi hollows and semi-hollows.
I have a 2016 LP ES-Pro that just rocks. It's my favorite LP. They only made them for a few years and they're hard to find. Mine is trans black but I'd love to find a wine red one.
