stepi Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 Hi guys, I'm an oldie acoustic player and was looking for an AJ 100N at a music store. Then it hit me in the face , "Talent" with Epi "E" on the headstock. They had a LP's and SG's, some plain ,some with weird, crazy graphics on them. I'm rather partial to SG's and liked the "tangerine-ish" colour. Can anyone shed some light on these guitars? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matiac Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 Sounds like a G-310 to me. Not quite a special, not quite a G-400. I've heard they're decent guitars, some folks can't get around the bolt-on neck it has, I've never played one, there's people here have 'em though, and seem quite happy with them.

RotcanX Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 What... these things? http://www.trademe.co.nz/Music-instruments/Instruments/Guitar-bass/Electric-guitars/auction-141067358.htm Just what we need... another sub-brand to confuse the situation. Effing BRILLIANT, Epiphone. The Les Paul is a Special II. The SG is something a lot like a G-310. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex9152 Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 I believe that the Talent line is made for the Chinese market or something. I've never seen them in the states. You're seeing them because New Zealand is closer to China. Here is the official site in Chinese (not that I can read it): http://www.gibson.cn/products.asp?flag=1&parentcla=34&classid=86 The instruments are dodgy Specials, but one of them is a 24-fret Les Paul with a Floyd Rose and there is a line called "Typegraphical" with some neat designs.

RotcanX Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 That makes sense, explains why we've seen zero hype on these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
