Jammin' Joe Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 I just have a question about the country of manufacture for an Epiphone Slash Snake Pit guitar. There's been an ad on the Pittsburgh Craigslist lately that the seller says it was made in Gibson's USA custom shop and I'm just wondering it he's correct? I thought all Epi Les Paul's were made overseas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobinTheHood Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 No Epiphone Snakepit guitars were made at the Gibson factory. There was a Gibson version of this guitar, but the EPis were either made in Korea or Indonesia. Not sure which country, exactly, for this specific model.

RobinTheHood Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Samick plant in Indonesia started in 1993 though I don't think they made Epis from the beginning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
