Yup. I bought me an Epiphone LP copy, even thought I have a 2009 Agile CSB AL-2500.
It's a darned nice guitar with Gibson pups, Switchcraft and CTS components, and a gorgeous satin finish. AND it comes with a hardshell case!
Traded a 1985 Roland SH-101 synth I hadn't taken out of the box in years. At the shop, they couldn't believe the condition it was in. Traded even. Yeah, they'll sell the synth for about $1100.
It was kind of a birthday present to me.
In other news, that Agile will now be trade fodder for later.
Not mine, but I have nowhere to host an actual pic:

Happy NGD. I've got a buddy's newer Epi LP on the bench right now, needing to clean up the nut a bit.

Nice!! I almost bit on one of those, or an AL-3200. The AL was just too heavy.

I ended up getting a used 2007 Gibson no frills vintage mahogany last year.
No regerts, but the EPI was a strong contender.

The picture thing, I upload them directly from PC; I imagine you can do it from phone as well.

Happy NGD Stig and a big hello to @devdem . I still love the amp cover you made for me for my Ampeg J20. I use the J20 a lot and that cover keeps it in great shape.

The new "Inspired by Gibson" Epiphone models are really impressive...
