I had the chance to check out a brand new new LP Standard during a course and the fretwork on it was shocking for a three grand instrument. Sire do a much, much better job.

Oh, when they get it right they get it *right*. A good Gibson will always be great. A nice Les Paul is twice the guitar my Epiphone version is. Twice the guitar at five times the price.... which comes right back to where you want to jump off the scale of diminishing returns against rising prices! As an aside, oddly enough being left handed turns out to be a plus when it comes to QA - it seems that there being so many fewer of them, from pretty much any company, they get that bit more individual attention...

Any use..? Marshall JTM60 issues... Reading through, it sounds like quite a risk, unless you're prepared to put up with problems (usually when you want them least...). As several have mentioned, there are better amps out there.

I've never played one (not sure I've ever even touched one), so that was a bit tongue in cheek, but I have seen comments on their QC. Still, I imagine that they produce excellent guitars in general.
