Revolution Six Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 - Very good wood - No veener or foto flame - Correct bevel, nice headstock - Correct body design - Gibson Humbuckers They are best Epi Gibson copies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAF Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 In your opinion, yes. These guitars are good, but it is nearly impossible to get a hand on one and the price for one is as much as a good Gibson guitar. Why buy a copy if you can get the original for the same price? And i intend to. I have sought out a Gibson model i really want, which is no longer being sold but is easier to find than the M.I.J Epis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Megafrog Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Those guitars look to have real binding, not the homemade variety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cody78 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Nothing wrong with a Chinese or Korean Epiphone SG in my opinion. You can get a good sound from most guitars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tweed2 Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 If they say Epiphone on the headstock they are not copies but Gibson authorized Epiphone production models. Save your breath (or ink, as the case may be), while as logical as that argument might be, he can't grasp the concept. In fact, I'm guessing there are several things he has trouble grasping.

Gibson owns Epiphone, so Gibson can produce, or have produced, any Gibson design by Epiphone.. Making them authorized production models and not copies..

A flying V should be a one piece if you are gonna be a jerk about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlie brown Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 I had one, years ago! It was actually a very nice guitar, and pretty much "spec'd" correctly, to a '61. The only thing that I could never get over, was that (for me) it was actually TOO Lite in weight! Felt oddly unsubstantial, that way. Though, I never really had any other issues, with it. Stayed in tune well, and played very nicely. Sounded good, too. But, I later sold it, to get my "Satin" finished '61 SG reissue Gibson. As nice as that MIJ Epi SG was, I've never really regretted selling it, for the first my current ones. CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
