Welcome to the forum, LB. You can learn a lot about Gibson & Epis here-I have a Gibson 'the Paul' Standard, it's a 1978 model and solid walnut. It plays nicely but I like the sound of my Epiphone Les Paul Standard with the Plus top better, it has the mahogney with a maple cap and has a more Les Paul sound than the walnut guitar-the Epi has that 'Jimmy Page/Led Zepplin' sound!

Check out my albums
Electric guitars-2008 to see my Gibsons and Epi guitars as well as a picture of a Gibson SG-200-my first Gibson, and long gone I'm sorry to say~
