Hey, no prob, man....I stand corrected, and you're right. Just that every Epi that I've A/B'd with a Gibson sounded really dull compared to the Gibby. If the Epi pups are to your liking then keep 'em...just that if you want it to sound more like a Gibby, then I think changing the pups will help.
Really, if you A/B an Epi with a Gibson, you'll hear the difference.
