I also have a $110.00 Epi acoustic that, for the most part does adquately, but there are some dead spots on the neck around the 3rd to the 5th frets on the high E and B strings.  This is the only indication that I have ever had that Epiphone might somehow deserve their reputation far and wide for making cheap sh*t.  I have never had a problem out of my Les Paul Special, my SG Special, or my Les Paul 100, all three of which I got for a total of around $460.00, over a span of around 12-15 months.  My Electra Phoenix cost $469.00 in 1983 dollars.  None of the Epis came with cases, however, so I spent another $350.00 on two epiphone cases and one Gator case for the Les Paul 100.  I'll be the first to admit that Epi CASES stink to high heaven, with shoddy latches that don't work properly, which is why I got the Gator for the LP 100.  Gator lives up to the hype.  Very respectable quality product.</blockquote>
