My friend has a Epi Classic and loves it. He upgraded to that from a Epi Special. Just had to put that in.

If It's Korean It's Samick
Mmm, not quite. My Epiphone BB King Lucille was made by Aria Guitars in Korea. Source: Gibson's Customer Relations in response to a serial number query of mine. My Lucille has a stamped serial number and a different s/n stencilled in white over the top of it.

Hard to Hear, tell me more about the Dot. I found a lovely sunburst Dot at Sam Ash for $399. And I might get one cheaper at the local Mars....
I'm a strat player looking for his first set-neck, humbucker type guitar, with not a whole lot of cash to spend.

Every Epiphone les paul I've played had a very distinct difference between it and a Gibson, except for one, but it was a modded one so it was kinda a different thing all together.
However, every Epiphone SG I've played - only two however - have been brilliant guitars. Weird.

The Dot is an awesome addition to a Strat. It is the one Epi guitar that I think really has a personality of its own. It looks like a 335, but it plays and sounds like its own guitar. The sound and feel are both great, especially for a very classic rock sound. A plain Dot through a JCM2000 TSL sounds like a million bucks. They are gritty and have great tone and sustain. If you're going for a classic or a british rock kind of sound, I highly recommend the Dot.

Wow - thanks. You know I have been looking at Casinos and Dots, and I can't figure out why Casino's list for $200 more....
