Speakin' of the Classic, I brought it to class today for the 1st time and my instructor was oogling it pretty hard after he played it for few minutes. He can't have it but I want his SL 100

I almost got one of those prophecies...then Ramo showed me a certain 7 string snow white Jackson V with a floyd rose....suffice to say my last 4 songs i recorded was on that very Jackson.
Honestly i like them, i have an epiphone V Richie Faulkner signature i paid $1,000 for and its very much my favorite 6 string, i love how it feels, the action is REALLY nice and holy crap the EMG-57-66 tones I absolutely love! (it also has a floyd rose and im actually terrified of changing the strings which it so desperately needs right now..) so would I pay $1,000 for an epiphone of the same quality again? Sure would if it had all the features i like.

I am far away from it but wouldn't that make a bad ass slide guitar?

Well, it's real mahogany with a real maple cap. Has an ebony fretboard and Fishman pickups. My Gibson SG Modern, that I am anxiously waiting for, is $2,000. Maple cap, 24 frets, ebony board. Pretty similar for $1100 less. I don't see that it's that bad of a deal.

Don't let the rock stance fool you. This SG is a master of versatility.www.premierguitar.com
IT seems VERY NICE...... but come on you can get a metric crap load of GIBSON SG's under 900 used..... really nice ones
or a NEW Gibson sg for just a few dollars more

Best SG I've ever had.
Only LP I've ever liked.

There's also still a trade war going on with China. Goods that have comparable equals that are made in the U.S. will be hit with extra tariffs. Especially when American flagged companies are outsourcing for cheaper labor. Aside from guitars... steel and other metals, building materials, and so much other stuff is still being hit hard because we sent all manufacturing off shore years ago for higher corporate profits that will never be taxed.
