stereohigh Posted January 1, 2009 Posted January 1, 2009 Can anyone tell me about this please it doesnt have epi stamped on the neck but has the E on the body. I can not seem to find another like it on the web, so was wondering if you lovely people could help me
AyushPresley Posted January 1, 2009 Posted January 1, 2009 Howa !! what the hell is that ?? Honestly i have never seen that Epiphone in my entire life.. what is it ? SG/Strat.. hybrid.. well i kno there were some epi's that looked like a strat but this is the first time i am ever seeing that..:) you sure someone didn't just name it epiphone ?? well someone here might know !! anyone !!
stereohigh Posted January 1, 2009 Author Posted January 1, 2009 I agree its real wierd looking, was wondering if it was genuine or just a copy, or if it was a rarity
epinder Posted January 1, 2009 Posted January 1, 2009 I'm about 95% sure that the guitar in the photo is not an Epiphone. The headstock tells me that it is either a "Harmony" or another in that vein. Most likely from the '60's or early '70's. I would assume the "E" was added at a later date. Are those 2 switches to the right of the neck p/u? As an aside, I think it looks cool.
AyushPresley Posted January 1, 2009 Posted January 1, 2009 I guess it ain't Epiphone either...i searched the whole net for that.. couldn't find it...
stereohigh Posted January 1, 2009 Author Posted January 1, 2009 Yeah me 2, its an odd beast, I shall try searching for jap copies of the model see if tis one of them, I remember reading that the japanese copied pretty much anything
epinder Posted January 1, 2009 Posted January 1, 2009 Here is a photo of one that I found. Different body style but similar headstock. I'll keep searching.
AyushPresley Posted January 1, 2009 Posted January 1, 2009 well you know it might be some no name bolt on SG shaped guitar and this guy whose ever this guitar is, changed the neck, and the E can be a mere sticker, that's really easy to put anyway.. other than that I cannot see any other explanation to that guitar..and damn i cant find any thing even close to the net other than the SG.:)
stereohigh Posted January 1, 2009 Author Posted January 1, 2009 Yeah I think the headstock has the look of an old tiesco guitar, kay audion etc, but the body looks a bit more modern to me
TheX Posted January 1, 2009 Posted January 1, 2009 Teisco neck, http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120356629118&fromMakeTrack=true&ssPageName=VIP:watchlink:top:us Who knows what it got morphed to.
