It's probably too late, but if you're going to buy an epiphone I'd suggest playing the actual guitar you're going to buy before purchasing it. From my experience you could play 10 different epiphones that are the same model and they all sound different.

It has already shipped...I guess I'll just keep my fingers crossed

How did this turn out for you? I have been thinking about getting a hollowbody so i can induce feedback easier than with my tele.

How does she sound?
Do I listen to pop music because I'm miserable or am I miserable because I listen to pop music?

I know you've already purchased your guitar.

for anyone else that may be looking for a quality electric guitar, i recommend Lotus.

I've got the les paul design copy. Just as good as the original if you ask me.

It turned out fine. The guitar arrived in great condition...the set up on it seems good, the guitar is really easy to play and everything is in good working order. I would definitely recommend one.

I ended up buying one of those "cheesey" fender digital amps that has about 50 presets for just about every style imaginable, plus drum loops, backing tracks, and a tuner...I know that there are much better sounding amps out there but really all I was looking for was something that I could plug in and make a bunch of noise with

Is it fairly easy to get feedback with?
