Matt.taylor14 Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Okay, so I read a forum basically about the difference between Gibson guitars and Epiphone guitars. My question is, what if Epiphone changed its name to a more premium sounding name (on par with Gibson), would it make you tempted to buy more of them because the product sounds more professional and rebuild a reputation Epiphone had before it became "budget" Gibsons? Also, if you would agree that a change of name may sound better for Epiphone, what would you change it too? Thanks Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure Epiphone as a company name sounds unprofessional. maybe because it's been around for over 140 years. currently, Epiphone has a pretty good reputation worldwide and the brand obviously sells. the best thing Epiphone has going for it is that people that want a Les Paul and only have 4 or 500 bucks can buy a decent new guitar. so, to change the name of a company with so much history and recognition around the globe would be probably the worst thing that could ever happen to the company.
