Epiphone Inspired by Gibson Les Paul '59 with case

Boy oh boy, have Epiphone blurred the lines between the two brands here, this is a remarkable guitar that beats several of the USA made variants hands down. The spec sheet reads like a top end USA model and the attention to detail here is way above the standard Epiphone production.
Now I agree, these appear to sell for a premium price for a Chinese built Epiphone, until you play, and hear them, at which point everything starts making sense. 
This one is a near mint example complete with its bespoke hard case and all the stickers etc that come in the original package.
If you are local to us, you have to come and try this thing to believe it!

Here is the spec from Epiphone...
