Nice fit & finish. Case is solid, possibly a little more sturdy and polished than older Epiphone cases. Clasps seem sturdier and case material better quality than some Epiphone cases I have experienced. I am writing a few points that I was thinking about before purchase that I have not seen info on. Most will be familiar with the Pickups, Bridge, Tuners, etc. All hardware seems appropriate to me. Binding looks nice, inlays are Mother of Pearl (a nice touch that could have been skipped) nice weight. Ebony board feels great, fret ends 98.9%. Maybe 2 were a little sharp, however, I will re-evaluate this weekend as I am in New England and the guitar shipped Cold! Needs to warm to home temperature and settle. Shipped with 10's. A little heavy for me and will change to 9's. Headstock looks great and guitar played well out of the box, again, considering it was cold.I feel one important feature of this guitar is the price. At $1400.00 (after tax is added) its not a cheap instrument. But, I feel it is in a price range that you wouldn't be hesitant to take it to a gig or play live. Sometimes, the higher end guitar, the less use it gets. Hope this helps out.
