    This is a true fan and a man who knows what he’s talking about. A lot of players buy for the brand or the look. Frank knows the history, the purpose of the instrument, and the gratitude shines. A great example of a true believer.

    It would be so great if Gibson stopped making so much junk and let Epiphone become a premium brand again with models like this in a US factory.

    • @jadedcynical7739
      @jadedcynical7739 7 лет назад +10

      Woodeso's Guitar Mods Totally agree, so much history in one name to flagship a budget line of guitars.

    • @MrDkgio
      @MrDkgio 7 лет назад +20

      Gibson, good points, some of the pick ups, scale length and neck. Bad points break angles durrrp, lets make an instrument that wont stay in tune and will break its own headstock off at the drop of a hat, but probably their worst fault, is that its made by Gibson in the USA so the workmanship is dire.
      some if not most Epiphones are better than gibsons already

    • @fabiopunk1661
      @fabiopunk1661 7 лет назад +7

      I own a few Gibsons and several Epis. The latter win. They came absolutely flawless and look and sound great. Gibsons all came with some flaws (paint, or inaccurate assembly of knobs, jack, etc) showing bad workmanship and poor quality screening before shipment to shop.

    • @GlennMichaelThompson
      @GlennMichaelThompson 7 лет назад +8

      The original Epiphones were the real deal. I've had the chance to play a 40's Emperor...absolutely amazing in all aspects. It would be great to see them as a premium brand again. Problem is the cost would prohibit most players from buying one. :-/

    • @Huzee66
      @Huzee66 7 лет назад +1

      I own a few Gibs and Epis - love my Joe Pass ... epis are not that bad... it is too bad that Epi seems to be the chevy of Gibson but wouldn't make much sense having competing brands under one roof? How many people would buy a $4000 Epiphone vs $4000 Gibson?

      @ReprobateMind 2 года назад

      I think when your family member is a household name, no matter how good you are at what you do unless you go anonymous you'll just get "Oh he's only famous cause he's got x as a relative" or "I wonder what strings x pulled for this" following you around. Not saying any of that's true I know nothing of the man but this video, just saying that's how the average person thinks.
