And more!

While low-end Gibson models seriously on the fritz., it seems that Qingdao bods are busy at work to feed us masses with better plans than dear old Henry can muster up.

Pelham Blue Firebird and Smoke Grey(?) Thunderbird are super hot. God damn. Explorer looks choice too.

Is that third grey guitar a baritone Les Paul?

These all look good. That Pelham Les Paul just makes me want this guitar more, though:

Weird isn't it? By my eye, if you compare the positions of the nut and bridges as they appear in perspective, it's the same as scale length as the others.

I think it's supposed to be a LP Custom.

Obviously the pelhams are sexy but the Smokey greys look so hot

The ES-330 on the bottom row is my favourite. Very classy looking.

I spotted that. I'm thinking it's one of the chambered ones with the bigger body.

Some look the same because the body is scaled up a bit too, like the Buckethead sig model.

I want that Explorer!!

(I was waiting for the picture to load. BT has fucked my internet so it's currently running in busted ass atari Robroe mode)

Is the bigger one more like an L5 or L6 or something?

What's the black hollowbody smack in the middle with the three P90s? It looks like it has a slightly smaller body than the usual 335. I would play that so fucking hard. Love it.

Cool colours. I've always wanted to try out those smaller bodied 335's... 339s I think?

I think these are pretty funky too, if only the white one didn't have gold hardware:

Dwight Trash signature model.

I saw those and immediately fell in love. Then I found out they're "Elitist" models with a $2200 price tag or something. Killed the love pretty quick, but the Red one with Firebird headstock is still sweet.

Where can I find one of these?

It's a Wildcat, they've previously come in trans-orange, trans-black, natural flame and turquoise. I think they only come in natural and a Royale version (white/gold with White Penguin binding) now from the Chinese factories, but I could be wrong, those are just the only 2 finishes I see in shops/sites now, and they nixed the turquoise Casinos too.
They're pretty cheap compared to other Epi semihollows, $100 less than a Dot right now for a natural one.

I really wish they had a Epi 335 with a headstock like that. that didn't cost 2k

Yeah, I know about the wildcats, in the second part of my post I was referring to the one further back on the row of black guitars with the three P90s. It looks like a 335 but slightly smaller and with a bigsby.

The first part of my post I was wondering what the larger Les Paul-type solidbody was on the row of black guitars.

I played a Flamecat years ago (a Wildcat but.. with flames painted on) and I thought it was shit. But the limited edition white+gold one really attracted me, so I wouldn't mind finding one to strum again but nowhere seems to have them. I want to sell the Alden and get another small-bodied hollow electric and the Wildcats are exactly that, and cheap.
