Epiphone: Another whammy model

This is another Epiphone LP which has a whammy bridge option but it's a non-locking model- Speciall II GT, new for 2010. It's more affordable than the other standard offerings as it's a bolt-on make. Some of us can't come to terms with the tune-o-matic bridge of the typical LP; it alleviates the strings way off the body & this affects our playing because we rest/ anchor our picking hand fingers on the body top while we play. This LP might help us address this quirk.
