Epi Les Paul Plus Top PRO (vintage sunburst)... $389
Fender Acoustic/Electric (black)... $220
Digitech RP1000... $299
Fender Frontman 212R amp... $350
Line6 G50 wireless unit... $299
Loxx chrome strap-locks (LOVE EM!)... $17ea.

I had a luthier "set up" the guitars... and I'm now equipped WAY beyond my playing abilities (incentive to get better quick)...PRACTICE. Each one of these products is EXCELLENT... per my luthier. Even the Epi LP. They exceed my expectations... all have warranty. I pitted GC against AMS... AMS won. No credit check...no interest...free shipping...free extended warranty...and 12 month payment plan. Couldn't have been easier. And my credit SUCKED!

While the Gibson is much "smoother" to play... I find I enjoy both LP's equally. And, of course, they're BEAUTIFUL just to look at.

Now to find a band... hehehe...
