Although (due the mini pots with no date codes and serial sticker being removed) we were unable to date this guitar exactly, we do know that it's one of Epiphone's 1980's made in Korea models. The headstock isn't a standard Epiphone or Gibson, but it's certainly more Gibson than Epiphone. The fretboard and binding have been routed away for the brass roller nut modification. Tuners and bridge pickup has been swapped, but other than that everything appears to be original. There are some scratched and buckle rash marks on the guitar, but nothing too deep.
