Holy crap that was really freakin cool.
Just stopped by my local guitar shop on the way back from dropping a coworker off for a state inspection on his Honda when I decided to see if they had any new guitars in.
I finally got my hands on an Epiphone LP and I gotta say... I kind of liked it better than the real deals. Biggest difference was that it was much lighter, but I have not had my hands on a Gibson LP model 05 and on. Also, I really couldn't tell a difference in the pickups at all and the feel was just as quality to me.
Anyway, the Dot had a Bigsby bridge on it which was actually pretty cool, but I really liked this whole thing in general. I don't think I'll buy one for a little bit, I'd prefer to stick to a solid body for my first git because with the LP's I can just sit back in my chair at home and jam, the Dots are a little too big to do that, but they're definately on my wish list.
