I have a 96 green les paul, also limited edition - but every epi from this period got that logo on the back of the headstock
Its switch broke within weeks and it had a fret hump at the body join. But now its has a full fret level and every single part replaced its quite a nice guitar![;) ;)](/plugins/EmojiExtender/emoji/fb/3.gif)

It's still not great though. The in-between setting doesn't have that lovely jangle that you get on a nice one. Also it buzzes and rattles like hell, presumably as I wasn't able to secure the covers to the pickup body. I had to drill the covers myself so they're a bit crappy all round really.
I've heard enough that I'm starting to think that it could be an OK guitar with better pickups but have been so disappointed with it that I really can't risk throwing more money at it. After market options are so limited which doesn't help. What is odd is that, as you point out, the pickups on the modern, Chinese Casinos I've tried sound fine to me. I don't know if they're up there with the USA ones or the Fralins but they sound OK.
