You can try out Rhapsody in MidValley (which really overcharges) or the (in)famous Woh Fatt near kota raya for your epiphone needs.....

How much is your budget for your Amplifier??

again, sweelee will only ship to SG addresses.

also look around in the used market here...
sometimes can find epi LP standards going for around RM1350-1500++.

If you are really interested, I can direct you to someone that is selling a used 2005 Epi LP standard for around RM1300++ with hardcase.

I have personally checked out the guitar before and you have my word that it is one of the most well made Epi I have ever seen.

Quite amazing for an MIC guitar. Can't commend on the sound though but the guitar is indeed problem free from a cosmetic and playability point of view.

PM me for more info.

On the other hand, you can also check out the Ibanez SZ320, basically the Ibanez take on the LP design and too me, an improvement of the LP design in everyway with the much better higher frets access, more comfortable body contoured, and better pickups.
