There is TalkBass thread all about the classic pro. In a nutshell the difference between a Epiphone T bird classic pro and and the current Gibson is not a lot.

There is no neck dive on the classic either.

[b][url=""][/url]MARILYN MONROE, recorded and released 1990[/b] [center][/center] [font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]This disc marked a mini water mark as a bar band in the Philly area. Tapping into funk, blues and a little bit of country, the songs represented the culmination of about 18 months of dozens of gigs from South Street in Philly to biker bars outside Delaware. The musician lineup changed slightly from "Kerouac Shack" to include Blair Saunders on bass, and Jorge Castenda on guitar. Lee Sled and Toby Houser had to leave to go to college. Most of the songs on here are great, with fantastic vocals from Jennifer Lynn.[/font]
