My only experience is with the Gibson Firebird. The main flaw with these guitar types is with balancing issues due to the large headstock and front wing and relative lack of weight at the back end. My Gibson didn't have this, but I'm pretty sure copies including any Epiphone editions will have this. I know Epiphone Thunderbird's are crippled by this.
Playing sitting down is fine due to the reverse body. They look awesome, play awesome, just make sure you strap it to you and check the weight and balance before purchasing.
