i've been playing steel string and classical for a bit now and am looking at electrics. i like the sound and shape of les pauls. A gibson would be nice, but they seem a bit pricy. Epiphones seem like a nice alternative.

these are the candiates ive got so far. any input as to whats good or bad, or other possibilities, is appreciated.

All those epis are good. I have a lot of friends that are happy with the studio. Agiles are a huge bang for the buck low end guitar. I have posted about them here before. The quality is quite good and their cheap enough that you can upgrade to about 70% of the tone you would get from a Gibbson lp. They are nuts for them at Harmony Central. Google for the forum,hit the search box for agile and be prepared to be buried in posts.lol.
