Both of replica gibson are really nice and both of them look like real Gibsons. The details are very good for a non-made in USA Gibson - chinese fake gibson. It is very beautiful with her white colour combined to her black bending. The hardware isn't maybe top quality, i hope it will pass the years without turning into rust or losing the paint (but i remember i paid only several hunderds). Anyway, the bridge and the Tune-O-Matic can be renewed for a few Dollars.
As these guitars are very succesfull in copying the originals with their advantages and disadvantages, it tends to have a big big big neck as you can find on some Les Paul Custom ; but it's still very playable.
I made this video by NOKIA. So the sound is not the same as the real one. But I love the sound very much.

  • @scottduncan44 China is the counterfeit capital of the world and they have been for a long time. Gibson should have never moved production there. In my lifetime, Epi production went from USA to Japan to Korea to China. Gibson is constantly searching for cheaper parts & labor. That's corporate greed for ya!

  • @phillyfrankb Most of these Chinese fakes come loaded with Epiphone parts & features. The hardware is korean (Sung-il). They supply hardware for MANY different brands. These fakes are most likely illegally made in the Epi factories in China (China is the counterfeit capital of the world). Some of the newer fakes have 17 degree headstock angles. Gibson actually switched to 14 degrees back during the Norlin era...but then they switched back to 17.

  • a great guitar player can make a $99.00 sound worth buying. I have never paid retail for gibsons fenders or anything else. What ive learned in buying instruments is a well maid peice of wood is electronics away from being a great instrument. We often pay good money for a label only to put gaff tape over it when the manufactuer screws us over the phone? If it has 6 strings and you can make it burn then by all means give er hell. :o)

  • some are good and some are shit..... just like EPIPHONES!!!!

  • @SuperSvai hey bro I know this person , so what is the problem? and why is it not rectified?

  • I think the dislikes are because it's a Chinese copy, we can all agree he's a pretty good guitar player, and to be honest that guitar doesn't sound bad at all! Not everyone has or is willing to shell out of a Gibson, he never said it was real, he tells us it's fake, he's doing no harm, I see no reason for dislikes! Cheers mate!

  • Don't know y theres so many dislikes on this I think it's pretty good sounding keep it up man

  • @battletoad01 The fakes need some work but they make good project guitars. Some guitarists gig with their fake and save their expensive & fragile Gibson for the recording studio & photo shoots. With the fake, you don't have to worry about scratches, dings or dents...or having it stolen!

  • Y would you buy one of these. They are sometimes built wrong with no way to intonate. True some are real epiphones with a relogo. And y would you support a company stealing from a company that already offers a great alternative. So you can have the logo? Il chose quality and resale value over a stupid label that any real guitar player will spot and laugh the ass off. Because you can get a sweet Epi with a a set neck mahogany body and real alnico picups for $300 brand new. I see them used for $1

  • dont buy one thats a fuckn dumb ass ansewer

  • @dedski7

    Simple. Don't buy one.

  • Sounds good to me, way to save 2,600 bucks.

    I recommend swapping those out for some dimarzio's and you'll be good to go, but you have to keep the gold covers if it says custom on the headstock :P
