Ramo, my list was not to be ONLY those.
Jacksons, Deans, ESP, LTD, and others I did not type are all what I am looking for too.

this has been literally a HIDDEn gem and a love affair for almost 9 years now....it is the guitar I have owned the longest of all of mine and has NEVER been considered for "flip fodder"
since the day I drug it out of a dirty Foley Al. Pawn Shop bone stock dirty missing a knob ZERO weight relief and with a cheesy dirty nylon strap to now :

blacked out hardware and GROVER tuners....Wilkinson P94 neck and a DIMARZZIO 36th ANv PAF bridge pup (with new yesterday BLACK cover and new FENDER 10's! (the horror_) ) .....this is an 08 Epi -- the abalone inlay on the headstock is AMAZING (cant get a pic to do it justice)
Sustains for days -- plays like butta sounds like thunder -- when they made this one they did it RIGHT


always my favorite
 
Adrian, I see you say yours is a 2008? I popped mine out of the 5 star hotel last night to play.
It is definitely one well set up, and smooth as silk player for a guitar that started out as a $350 new one but more than doubled in price once I installed T Top pups and it got a trip to the luthier for a bone nut and setup. Mine is a 2010 Epi LP Std.Epi ROADCASE2.jpg

sweet -- always LOVE that color bubba

I traded a USed Jay Turser 335 copy .....maybe 180.00 invested as I recall ?? (been years man) even up for the SILVERBURST -- the shop owner had like 5 Les Pauls.....no 335's his "logic" was "o.k., pick one of them I need something that LOOKS different these arent moving".............. BUWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
new SIlverbursts are going for 4-500.00 USED ........ BUWAHAHAHAHA
 
Id have to say........... truly MOST my gutiars are "diomands" in the rough --
Ibanez sA (UPGRADED )
sg-1 gIBSON (FEW PEOPLE EVEN know WHAT THOSE ARE)
WEIRDO pEAVEYS AND Sonex 180 Norlin stuff.........I tend to search out the solid well made unloved -- odd ball stuff.........like

Grabber Rippers are not that Misfitty. I would say one of those Tronical Tuner nightmares are closer to Misfit toys.
