This is the first I've seen of these. It looks great in the photos. Love the burst. Would rather have a frequensator tailpiece though.

 

$2,527 starting bid and $161 for shipping. Ouch.

I did copy the photos for all to see.

Not just $2K but $2.5K plus shipping.

 

That almost puts it in the class with the Memphis Gibson's only made in Asia.

I think it's crazy that Gretsch charges $3,600+ for a Japanese made White Falcon.

 

So that being the case, Gibson should just start making high end reissues of Epiphone models, one/two a year and sell them at Gibson prices.

 

I would buy a high end Epiphone before a high end Gibson.

 

I'm sure there would be one or two other forum members that would.

 

But they have to be the right models. I love my Casino, but please, do we need 34 varieties of Casinos?

 

Let's explore other reissues.
