Anyone played any of the new Epiphones lately?

[VH4_BigRig]

Hey guys, just saw this Epiphone DC for the first time this week. Has anyone played one of these models? Even if it isn't perfect out of the box, it looks like something I'd be interested in modding to be useable, since I love double cuts. However, always curious what corners have been cut for pricing, especially when made in China. Any comments or feedback on them would be awesome! Thanks a lot, cheers

i havent played one but ive watched a few blindfolded tests where guys cant tell if they are playing a new epiphone or real LP in both feel and tone so id assume these are at least decent, i just cant get past the headstocks though and this flowery invasive weed on the headstock dosent help
