Vintage is not even making LP guitars over 500 euros - one more point for VGS. That's right, Pro series are great guitars but costs twice as much as normal VGS (there are also Pro Europe versions, more expensive, made in EU - Germany or Switzerland), there are also normal Eruption Les Paul with new Evertune bridge (which is something completely incredible for few minutes of playing with it by myself).
If there is an opportunity to buy VGS consider it, first of there are few models to choose from, second - they are new manufacture but very quickly they've won clients appreciation, third - everyone wants to have Vintage (or Epi if they dont know the truth
), just don't be mainstream
