I am proud to say that I am now in the Epi family. Something caught my eye with the Blac and Blu and I figured I would give it a try. I've owned Gibsons and a bunch of Fenders and have always called myself a 'Fender Guy', they have always fit me and my playing style. I've been playing for nearly 30 years and have never even picked up an Epiphone.
I preordered mine on March 12th and just received it last Wednesday May 20th and let me tell you, it was well worth the wait.
