I bought this guitar a few months ago, after a customized setup I can say that the sound is monstrous, it releases power like a Ferrari... sounds better than my Gibson SG. From an aesthetic point of view it is Spatial, a dream, I changed the plastics of the selector covers in the rear and I mirrored them like the pickguard and I must say that it is even more spatial 💥 the only drawback: the fretboard, beautiful but I would have preferred it in ebony, I would have bought it even if it cost more.

I always liked the idea of a Les Paul with a DiMarzio Super Distortion in the bridge and a Duncan JB in the neck since they're the two most popular aftermarket humbuckers. Would be especially cool to try that combo in a guitar like this since the Super Distortion is Ace Frehley's signature pickup 😉

An SG and an Explorer is on my list, and Epiphone has interesting options. What is giving my pause is QC issues I’ve seen on other channels. Trogly pulling out 5 new ones and 1 was good (high frets on the others), and the paint jobs were quite questionable. Caveat Emptor. Sounded like they can be good guitars, but don’t buy sight unseen.

Dude these guitars by Epiphone that they're making these days? For under $500? And they finally gave us back the old style headstock instead of that stupid-looking one? I'm ready for a glittery purple Epiphone right about now.

I bought it thinking some day I would sell it to a big KISS fan but ended up liking it so much it's now one of my go to guitars lol. If the new one is built anything like the silver one it is an awesome guitar and the price is the same as when I got mine in 2013! Myself personally I don't like the flashy blue finish, it's too over the top for my taste but I would like to get one of his white lightning models.

My son would like to upgrade to an intermediate level rock electric guitar. There is one of these on the shelf I could pick up for him for Xmas. Would this be considered a good intermediate level guitar? He doesn’t play in a band but I’m pretty sure he could if he wanted to skill wise. He’s not a huge Kiss fan so the draw wouldn’t be based on fandom, but he does like purple. I know there are lots of choices and customization is almost limitless but if this isn’t a guitar you’d recommend within these parameters, what other Stratocaster for under $1000 would you recommend? Thanks to all that may offer their time and help!
