Worth every penny.
I got this for 500$ CAD. A steal, considering what others are going for on Reverb.
Mine is the one with the push pull master volume, which were introduced in mid '73 IIRC. It's one of the least desirable ones, but I don't really mind, since I paid about 1/4 of what I would've paid for a '65. As for actual tone, it's everything a Twin is hyped up to be: -Beautiful, shimmering cleans -Rich, warm tone -Reverb is out of this world, I no longer need a 200$ reverb pedal -Vibrato is a very nice feature -All controls are responsive, and the bright switch is a nice thing to have with dark pickups -Takes pedals beautifully

Guitar I bought used. Looked for it online couldn't find another one like it.
I bought this guitar earlier this year at Spaceman Music in Ottawa.
It's a made in China Epiphone Les Paul, with a Bigsby vibrato. The Bigsby apparently was installed at the factory as there are no screw holes for a regular stop tailpiece. It has a "Custom Shop" emblem on the back of the headstock. The guitar has the standard Les Paul pickups and controls, Grover Rotomatic tuners, and set neck. I'm not too sure about the colour of the wood, but the hardware is chrome, the plastic is cream and the fretboard is rosewood. Serial number is: EE070303114.
