Epiphone Les Paul Custom Gibson Les Paul Studio or?

I was thinking about a new guitar and I could get an Epi Les Paul Standard but the store sells before I can get it, I'll get an Epiphone Les Paul Custom http://guitars.musiciansfriend.com/product/Epiphone-LeftHanded-Les-Paul-Custom-Electric-Guitar-?sku=518559 # New or a Gibson Les Paul Studio http://www.zzounds.com/item–GIBLPSTL And not gibson say simply because I want a gibson is why we spend so much to strengthen and keep in mind im 16 so I'll pay for every time one with the money I earn my yard work this summer ass

When I was your age, in 1976, worked all the summer to save up to EN-335 then I had changed to a semi-rigid bridge – the total price of $ 800. I changed into other things when I was in college, which was a big mistake, because now that Gibson would cost me $ 3000 + used to replace, if I could find one. I have a Standard SG-72 I bought used in 1979 for $ 200. this guitar is worth $ 2,000 today. I have a LG-O Acoustic 1971 – Gibson guitar is cheaper, my parents bought for me as a "starter" for about $ 200. This instrument is $ 500 today. I also had a gold top Les Paul … Paid $ 400, and I will not tell you what it is today – he was a fool to change it, then say so. OTOH, you pay $ 500 Epiphone or whatever today is always $ 500 20 years from now in dollars – in other words, he liked not much, anyway. Why? Because they are mass produced overseas. Only a couple of Epis someone wants today – girlfriend of John Lennon "Casino" for example – but is a US-made Epiphone. Paradoxically, the Epi Les Paul is probably the better of the two new instruments today. They are as good as the equivalent. Gibson Les Paul at a fraction of the price. But unfortunately, if you want a little something that will keep their value or appreciate over time – Buy Gibson. I also had a guitar Ibanez great jazz musician I exchanged … was better than all the Gibsons .. a beautiful flamed maple archtop .. but I am less than you paid for it, when I changed. Moral of the story … Gibson retain their value and / or increase over time. Yet nobody wants (Marauders, L6-S, etc) you can get your money … and if they become popular for a reason … attention. Epiphone, Ibanez, Yamaha … all guitars very, very few enjoy high value, or not all. The same is true of things Fender. "Real" Fender mount – TexMex / Escudero / etc does not work. I have a G & L (Leo Fender company follows) F-100 is an amazing guitar … and not worth a penny more than I paid 25 years ago. Why? Because people want "real" Strats – period. The Gandl is technically 20 miles ahead early, and yet better is worth a fraction of the price today. Why? Because nobody is celebrating. It is a curiosity. For a Paul Epi The fire in value, two things must happen — Multiplayer key to start playing … and supply should diminish. Nothing that will not exceed 500,000 in value, no matter how good it is. A real "Les Paul, where they are 1500 or even 15,000 … Yes I have a better idea – go to a guitar shop that local services of good players in your area. It is possible to find a murderer in exchange for a player local, while hot stock (eg 335 or until golden stupidly traded). Not only consider new instruments, I can not buy another new brand. I like idea that another player had a good guitar is gigged with him – gives the soul. Hope that helps.
