Got this yesterday! I love it! The sound is. Amazing! A very quick fretboad and looks amazing! I thank you man for showing it off and giving a great review! : )
Nice vid. You r right about the price issue. The epi standard ( which I have in lefty too) retails for just over 500. The Gibson custom is almost 4,000. I also agree with the action on this guitar. Perfect. Way better than my buddies 06' Gibson standard
Oh man! Great demo and picture! I had doubts but after watching this! Buying it on Tuesday! The only thing I will forever worry about with this guitar, is the strap button coming out! There has been some horrific story's about the strap button coming out of the guitar, and ultimately breaking! Anyhow - great video and playing! The shots after the demo were fantastic! You should be about Epiphone salesman! : )
I bought my husband one of the Tokia LPS knock offs a few years ago, the model that got Tokai shut down, again, for being too close of a counterfeit, and he likes it better than his genuine model.
@thegirl44 Tokais are quite good. I haven't found one I thought was as good as a gibson in my hands mainly because Ive only ever seen one left handed one around and had no choice hehe. A few friends love those guitars and with good reason. Its all in the hands and a good amp. :) Keep groovin! :)
Shane, can you please give some info on the pedals you are using here and your amp? This is a great sound you've got. Superb guitar there. I'm also a lefty so I'll probably will check them out here in Belgium.
@kkeulena Hi mate. I am actually using no pedals at all. I am just plugged straight into my fender hot rod deluxe on the overdrive channel. Hope that helps :) Thanks for the comments I love this thing, it's as easy to play as a stratocaster.
@intheblues Allright! The nice sustain at 1.56 and with the power cord at 2.48 I really thought you had an extra OD pedal or compressor running. This guitar really has a great sound and sustain. Makes me think of my Gordon Smith Gipsy II but this one costs far less.
i love this guitar in right normal version...with a tech21 trademark 60 its perfect
