    Hello there,

    I trust you are being satirical. You surely do not really think a First Act guitar is better than a Gibson or Fender.

    However, if you do really believe that the First Act guitar is better than Gibson or Fender, you will be disappointed with either the Epiphone Les Paul or Ibanez GAX70. Neither of those two are as good as a Gibson or Fender. Perhaps, you should consider getting another First Act guitar.

    I had an Ibanez destroyer (def leperd) kind, and that i enjoyed it. It by no potential gave me any hassle. It relies upon on what style of neck you like, i think . The Epiphone would be flatter and wider, like a gibson, the ibanez would be narrower and extra rounded. purely get what you like. i'm not conscious of the Ibanez kind you pronounced, yet I even have had a Les Paul replica earlier, too, It replaced into o.ok. relies upon, too, on the pickup configuration which you like. The guitars I even have now, have the two humbuckers and unmarried coil pickups, yet in diverse configurations. so i will get a gibson, or a fender sound.

    If you really think a "first act" is "way better then gibson and fender",

    then there is no answer that can help you

    first act is a cheapie guitar, made with poor materials and wood.

    The Japanese and Korean Epi's and Ibanez guitars are all good.

    I don't care for the Chinese ones though

    (poor wood and electronics)

    It broke, they suck it wasn't great. Ibanez is better for the price, but Les Paul is higher quality. Les Pauls are really heavy too.

    i prefer ibanez because i dont like the les paul shape i feel more comfortable with the ibanez and steve vai does some amazing stuff on his.

    A GAX70 is good for a beginner metal player. The Les Paul is more versatile and suits the more experienced player.
