I am in the process of saving up some money (hard when you have alot of gifts to buy and bills to pay) for a new electric guitar. I pretty much have my mind made up about a Epiphone Les Paul Special II guitar. I have heard alot of good things about them and that with a little work they can perform with the big boys. For the price, it doesn't look like they can be beat.

What do you guys think? Any opinions are appreciated :D
