gibson studio plus

Which guitar would you say is better?
Gibson Les Paul Studio Electric Guitar- 799$
Or
Epiphone Les Paul Standard Plus Top Electric Guitar- 549$
If there are any other Les Pauls in the 500-800 price range tell me and tell me if they are better
it depends on whether you want to mainly perform or record. if you want a solid recording instrument – go for the studio.
the other will be a hot pick as well.
i personally prefer SG’s to the les paul. just my humble opinion.
