NGD Epiphone Elitist Content

Hey everyone! Thanks to another forum member, I got a sexy Elitist! This is my first Elitist and I am blown away by the quality! I mostly play metal, and I figured a pickup change to EMGs or something would be inevitable. NOPE. It sounds amazing for anything! I was shocked! The attention to detail is amazing. Thanks apocalypsebob for the awesome guitar! And a smooth transaction! Now, on to the pics! (My dad has my good camera so these are the best I could do)

White Guitars with Black Pickguards are my favorites. This is what guitar is played in the heavens plugged in to a 4x12" stack.

Nice man. Elitists are great (not that I would know since I sadly don't own one)

Dice I saw yours on here when I first joined the forum wayy back when. It was actually the guitar that got me to look at Elitist Customs! Yours was the first one I ever saw. And thanks man! I really love her!
