So a few months ago I picked up the Gold Gibson Case off of Reverb for $100...SHIPPED! :)

Obviously being a man of fine distinction and forethought, one must therefor purchase something worthy to put in it.

As such, I now bestow upon your feasting eyes an Epiphone Les Paul Modern Figured Caribbean Blue Fade...

My "Review" shall be brief..."FARKIN' KILLER!!!" :)

What a fine looking combo of case and guitar. I have never seen a case like that before. I really like it. Gorgeous Axe as well. Congrats!

I love those gold cases. I know some people bought 2015 blowout Gibsons just for those cases and sold the guitars on.

I'm not loving the finish on that Epi LP, but if you like it, that's all that matters. I think the neck heel is an improvement and I like that they come with locking tuners. Part of me wishes they'd somehow gone further with the design in making the upper frets accessible. Very cool. It's nice to see they're making a few breaks from tradition. I wonder how far they'll go with it in future years.

Very nice. I almost bought a 2015 Gibby on blowout partly because of those cases. Kind of reminds me of the body lines on a 69 charger.

And dang if Epiphone isn't coming out with some reallly nice looking LP's this year, and a lot of cool features/finishes. I'm not really a fan of blue/greeen finishes..but I think Kurt would do well to check your out next time he tries making an "oceanburst"...that's how it should be done IMHO.

Hows the fit and finish? I''ve been eyeng up a few of those new Epi's but the reviews seem to be kind of hit and miss...some are great but others are reporting a lot of fret and some finish issues.

Virtually flawless and sounds great too. :)

Really nice man. Congrats. I think that the new 2020 Epiphone line is WAY more exciting than the 2020 Gibson line. They did a lot of cool stuff.

Love that Gibson case too
My playing is always better after some good beer
