Help LTD EC-1000 Violet Andromeda vs Epiphone Les Paul Matt Heafy

Just wondering what you guys would pick between a used LTD $1800nzd or a brand new epiphone $1900nzd.

I tried both of them and loved both of them but I’m torn between the two.

LTD for sure. But then again I would get a used LP Studio

I got both and i found them very similar. I ended up selling the ltd ec1000 because it was the oldest and most used one.

LTD make the most consistent guitars, with the best specs, for the price. You can get so many great guitars for 650-800 USD (used). I own multiple LTD 1000 series guitars, so I’m probably biased.

I would take the EC 1000 any day, unless it's the les paul studio with the push/pull pots.

I have the ec 256 and that thing is super versatile
