3/5
I ordered this guitar after all the positive reviews I saw here and watched on Youtube, but today I plugged the guitar in and.. the middle position and neck pickups have 0 output - literally silent. The bridge works, but that's it. The guitar itself physically looks well put together, the case is great, but clearly nobody plugged it in before they put it in the box to see if all the electronics work or not. I now have to spend my money on bringing it to be looked at by a pro, cause who knows what the problem is. It's disappointing for a new ELECTRIC guitar to not actually have the ELECTRIC part proper, but I guess mass-production will have this effect on things. Anyways.. EVERYTHING else besides this about it IS great - hopefully mine was the rare specimen and won't be too expensive to get working again.

Good but nothing special.
The setup out of the box was OK, but not good. The jack socket was very stiff. Could not insert the jack. The case is made cheap and it included only one key, no spare. The neck is chunky. It is a nice mat finish and overall it is a good guitar though, but not very impressive. It arrived with a broken switch, unfortunately. :-(
Epiphone still has a plenty of room for improvement, I think. Limited edition clearly does not mean for them a better quality comparing to other models. Actually my 2 year old Standard Pro seems to be finished better than this one. Good product but nothing special.
Edit: When was changing stings for the first time I found that one saddle screw was broken already. Poor quality "Inspected by Gibson".

Best one so far
The upgraded electronics are the killer for the price + the case.
Setup needs to be done (i dont mind that part), otherwise realy good guitar. Have a older Epiphone which i upgraded fully, this one need nothing. Just plug and play
