It's a 2003 Korean '56 Goldtop re-issue.
I put a Gotoh nickel bridge and stoptail on it and changed the switch and the output jack.
I love this thing; sound, playability, mojo...it's got 'em in spades

I have the following:

Dot with '57 classics
Firebird VII (my favorite)
LP elitist
blues zephyr regent
alleykat
flamekat
es-295

Many are e-bay buys, and all are really good. Pictures are in the new poster forum

I only have one Epiphone guitar, a modded Lp Jnr. Swapped out the tuners, the nut for a bone one, and dropped a Kent Armstrong in there. A fun guitar, no frills, plug in and play.

I also have a modded Valve Junior amp as well, which I run into a 2 x 10 cab.

The cabinet has since acquired speaker grilles and a coat of black paint

a friend of mine owned an es340 and every time id go over to his house id pick it up and attempt to play it. one day he bought a hardshell case from some guy who needed money to pay bills and didnt bother to look inside it. when he got home and opened it up, inside was a epiphone sorento, manufactured august 1965. he gave it to me for my birthday so i would leave his gibson alone.
ive had this guitar for about 30 years nowand have been offered money for it many times, but i will never, ever sell it. one time i walked into a music shop to have the bridge adjusted and before the door even closed the owner said he would give me $500 for it. my immediate response,,,
"NO YOU WONT"

I have two Epiphones - ES-295 and Hummingbird. ES-295 I bought because of Scotty Moore, who else. It has a very big body and it is very loud. I love it!!! The Hummingbird I bought because I needed an acoustic guitar. I have always liked a Hummingbird's stunning look and when my wife saw one on "Gossip Girl" (TV-serie). We both were sold.

Here is the pics:

Well .....I had a gas attack and I am getting a little 5 watt for my bedroom. I have 4 amps and no tube amp other than my hybrid Vox VT30AD. I play blues and I thought this was a good idea. I played a Valve Junior today and liked it. However I can get the combo for the same price. I heard that it is an approved version of the Valve Junior and no need for the modifications that many people are doing. What do ya think about these amps.? I think I posted this in the wrong place. Ughhhh
