Just broke down and ordered one from Sweetwater. Epi's are just being made so damn nice the last 2 yrs. This will be my 4th Epi LP Custom! Others are the cherry and natural 100th anniv. (Very nice) The Lee Malias (Copy of the 70's Gibson Artisian Custom, I'm in LOVE with that axe) And the Ebony gloss LP Custom Classic (Gloss black with antique yellow binding and Gibson USA Pickups!) And now the Bjorn! Had to get this as I am a BIG Megadeth/Testament/In Flames/LoG Fan. Oh yea, Let's not forget "Soilwork" the BEST Swede metal band! Epi needs to make a sig model from Soilworks Lead man. This Bjorn model is killer. Ebony fret board!!!!!!!!
Who cares about your guitars..You don't have to be a dick to someone that cant afford. Man I'm starting to think if you can really play a guitar. Just say'in. :/
Ted Mac damn bro lmao I was just saying that I can't afford it. Maybe one day I will get one, in fact might as well save up until I can get the gibson version or a custom, but that's gonna take a long time. So, yea if epiphone want's to give me a guitar for free I'll take it.
+Metman2Tech thank you so much man, I'm a geek here myself, going to school for computer networking and information systems, I built my first computer about 6 months ago. I really appreciate you giving me this heads up even if I don't win. You're awesome bro cheers.
got it 3 days ago, brand new and already had to be send to repair shop as even guitar tech in store couldn't set up properly. loads of buzz on frets and high action.... am I so unlucky or what ?? see when it's back. one scratch or something and I'm sending all thing back :(
came back from repair shop, I couldn't tell a difference :/ so I took it down to a local luthier with very good reputation. He kept it for another week. on day of collection I was unable to test as I was deaf after Iron Maiden gig. tested next day and it plays much better, he fitted better strings, lowered down pickups and released a tension. but I'm still getting buzz on frets and this is very annoying :( I've checked truss road and it's released tension to the max ! no settings should be maxed out in my opinion, there should be margin on everything. unfortunately I've missed my 14 days return to shop now, so I guess I will have to live with that. but I'm not happy at all
So unfortunate to hear. Wonder why they didn't just give you a new one? Here in the US you have 30 days to return or exchange for a new one, no questions asked so long as the guitar hasn't being damaged. I haven't done it personally, but my friend bought a Les Paul custom from guitar center and it needed to be set up, he refuse and they just gave him a new guitar.
Beautiful guitar, I love this.
Pre-ordered mine YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY CAN'T FEWCKING WAIT!

+undead797 Epiphone is actually running a giveaway for one of these now....

Ted Mac i have a job and still cant afford this guitar ...even though id love to just order it...£650 is allot of money
I wonder why this is coming in standard tuning from the factory? its a friggin signature guitar, why not just setting it up like that at Drop A#? =/
More people play in E standard than Drop A. Usually. Just smarter to do it that way
Whats the difference from regular 81 85s?
i won this guitar last week ,thanks epiphone but i make the same question about pickups
+Master Sheriff guess its the pickup plate finishes

So how'd it go with the new Bjorn?

Looks like a Matt Heafy, what's the difference?
w1third different pickups. different finish. No access heel. different hardware.
