Well I just got back to uni (without the pearl because I dont fancy having both of my guitars left in my uni room) and had a go on the epiphone, I cant tell which I like more :lol: The thinner neck on my epi makes it easier to play leads but the slightly thicker neck on the pearl isnt exactly terrible either. I think the epiphone has a flatter radius, it looks and feels like it does anyway. The acoustic tone isnt actually that much different, the pearl is a bit thicker but the brightness/liveliness is actually about the same. Also, the body on the epi is a bit thicker, but the finish feels more plasticcy.
