Re: Epiphone USA Custom Shop Wilshire
Nice!!!!! 
I've always preferred the body shape of this family of Epis to the SG.
I wonder if they have addressed the neck joint issue that some of the '60s Epi solid-bodies have (along with some of the vintage DC LP Specials)?
The $5000 - $12000 they quote for vintage Wilshire's is a bit rich unless you limit yourself to very early models......in excellent+ condition. There are a couple of batwing-headstock mid-60s models at dealers for less than $5k. This makes me think the RRP will be lofty...
