I'm not an EMG fan myself, but if you are then cool. I guess you probably pay a premium for the Zakk model - you could acheive the same thing for less I imagine with an epiphone custom and have the EMGs fitted if you wish afterwards.

It's all personal preference man.... me? I'd be selling the LP to buy a guitar with a Floyd... At the end of the day, if that guitar does it for you - buy it! I would suggest buying from a store unless you're happy doing your own setup work etc... that way you can play before you pay.
