Unbelievable response to this video & guitar!! Congratulations to Epiphone, Gibson & Dave Grohl. The DG-335 is officially our most pre ordered guitar of the last 12 months!!! Thanks to everyone that’s ordered one - we’ll be doing our best to get the guitars delivered as soon as possible as we can. 👍👍👍
@@sillysausage4549listen I’m probably in the same boat of never wanting to spend the money on their upper end stuff but, an absurd price is really an individual kind of thing. To some people this is pocket change and to others a month of rent or something similar. I would never buy one of these but, epiphone hasn’t stopped their lower end products, so there are always those options and not just expensive Epiphones now..
These new Epiphone prices really make Reverend guitars look even better. The Reverend’s were always a huge bang for the buck. Comparing their lineup to Epiphone’s new higher prices makes the Reverend a steal.
A lot of guitar makes are now looking more attractive than epiphone. I don't understand what epiphone are doing with their pricing lately, I know a lot of guitars that I would buy for £1.250 than that.
I have a Reverend that’s 5 or 6 years old now. Back then I thought they were a good deal even though they don’t even give you a gig bag like similar priced Fender, PRS and Epiphone does. Heck you can spend $1700 on a new signature Reverend and still not even get a case. In my opinion from an owners standpoint, I don’t think the new Reverends are worth it. I have an Inspired By Gibson 59 Epiphone Les Paul and that guitar is absolutely great. The neck and frets were perfect out of the case. I get compliments on the sound of that guitar at every gig. I guess each to their own, that’s why there are so many brands out there. The higher end Epiphone’s have come a long way.
I agree that Epiphones have come a long way, but they are not nearly as good as Reverends for the same price. I bought a brand new Warhawk DAW two months ago for $1,100. It's very well made, has locking tuners, and came with a hardshell case. Each to their own, but I'll take a Reverend over an Epiphone any day.
@@CycloneJackI remember when I bought one of the first Reverend imports (a Warhawk no less) to the UK for £330. Perhaps I shouldn’t of let it go.. seems they are worth a little bit more now!
Reverends are a better value for sure. So are Yamahas. You can get a Pacifica 612 for $450 less than this Epiphone. And it's made better and is more versatile.
Agreed. I honestly don't get why Epiphone is so stubborn in sticking to Indian Laurel, even on their "premium" series guitars. Why can PRS SE, Eastman, Ibanez, Yamaha et al do it but Epiphone can't?
I saw them for "free" at Expo 98 in Lisbon. The Expo was meh but I felt my $30ish bucks was well spent to spend the day there because of the show. Dave was hilarious. The only Portuguese word he seemed to know was obrigado (thank you) and they busted out My Sharona with obrigado as the lyrics to start the show.
Dunno man… £1300 and you’ve still got an Epiphone? I wish Gibson would stop using Epiphone as their budget brand and let just have a “Gibson made in china” range.
I was never an Epiphone fan. These last few years I’ve found myself falling in love with quite a few of the IBG line guitars. Bought a few. Worth every penny. What you get with these is GIBSON USA pickups, CTS pots and A HARD CASE. I think it’s a good value.
The 339 is a very different sounding guitar. It has a much smaller body than the Grohl Guitar does . The Grohl guitar has a 335 size body .. You won't get 335 tones or Trini Lopez tones from a 339 and the 339 has crap pickups.
I like the look but I dont see the value. Epi 335's can be found new for sub £500, which already includes a profit margin, and there's nothing on this one that adds to the build hours. So artist premium + pickups + case is £750 more. 🤔 Value doesnt compute, for me. Eastman/Sire/D'angelico or even Epi dot every time. Its priced as memorabilia to gouge superfans. Foo's and their money are easily parted.
I'm kinda suprised that these are cheaper than the new Firebirds/other Signatures. Nice guitar, but paying more than a grand on a Epiphone is just crazy.
Johnny Million @itsjohnnymillion It doesn't make sense if you alter what they said, naturally. They said they don't think they will buy one but NOT because of the price tag and brand. In other words, they areN,t going to buy it , but the pricing and brand are not part of that decision. As opposed to not buying it on account of the brand, which is what you're Lolling about.
Depends. I think the Dave Grohl is priced high but fairly when you consider it comes with a hard case and Gibson pickups. But most of the other premium Epi’s seem overpriced.
I mean idk if I’d ever spend this kind of money on any Epiphone regardless of the special/limited edition monikers. I mean they still sell guitars at a very affordable price point so I’ll just stick to that stuff..
It's the same shape oh both sides. Why can't you just turn it upside down. Turn the nut the other way. Sure, the knobs and cable will be on the wrong side but surely that is a small price to pay.
Hey guys been watching for years and I enjoyed this video as much or maybe more than most y’all make. Love foo fighters and their music. Keep it going man one day I’m going to your store and hopefully meet you and Pete and see your wonderful store. Love y’all keep rocking
Dave’s been playing guitar since a kid. He talks down his guitar and music knowledge massively. Clearly he knows what he’s doing. So many pretend they don’t know what they are playing. Is this to look cool?
I think so haha. I think it’s mainly to placate personalities tbh. If you know musicians then you know a lot of them mythologize the idea of playing by feel. Some of the same people scoff at knowledge or theory but more importantly some just never had the opportunity. It can be easy to be the resident smart ass if you’re not careful. Quick edit to note that Pete even maneuvers around it in this video. He starts describing how Dave MUST know what he’s doing but quickly cuts off the tirade because he knows what comes with it.
Still waiting for an ANGUS YOUNG EPIPHONE! I just don't understand it. He is one the most iconic Gibson players for decades, in the biggest Rock band of all time and it seems like, Gibson/Epi isn't giving a sh*** 🤬
The comments about price seems fair considering a standard Epi 335 is Les than half the price, meaning diamond shaped f-holes, and a signature is worth a quite a lot, considering the rest of the specs don’t differ that much, and the price of a burstbucker, and Grover minis, are not enough of a price difference, even at retail prices, to make up the 60% premium.
The AC30 is probably bang on for what was used in the studio on a bunch of recordings. His main rig is an original Fender Tonemaster head, along with a Custom Audio head, and he now uses Friedman cabinets. In the studio, it can be a variety of anything. Dave and Chris stopped using Boogies live around 2010/2011, and switched to different amps around Wasting Light.
I doubt this new business model of charging $1200+ for Chinese made guitars will work for Epiphone. Not when brands like Schecter, LTD and PRS SE exist.
Been playing an original Trini in red with the bigsby since 1993. My dad’s first new guitar when he was a young musician. I do love the Pelham blue but think the LP in that color would be better for the collection here than the sig Dave model
Excactly my thought too, still a bit shocked after the Epi Firebird 63 release lol Shame I have already bought 3 guitars in 2024..... This is a must as well.
That's how the marketing and pricing scheme gets people. Inflate the prices so ridiculously that the lower, but still ridiculous, prices look more appealing compared to the higher price.
Indeed. I thought for sure it was going to be their most expensive yet. They probably could have charged 2000 thousand at least and they'd have sold just the same.
I love this! I bought one of the original Pelham blue Grohl s for $1,500 way back around 2010 or whatever. Didn't think anything of it. Now you ladies are going nuts over it. Priceless!! 😂😂😂😂
Looks great but it looks like the days of guitar being an affordable hobby are well and truely over. Hang on to your pre-pandemic purchases, you'll never see those prices again.
Thanks for your great Demo. Love Epiphone and i have the tommy thayer Explorer and the matt heafy orgins les paul but the prices for epiphones are amazing high😮
I remember when you could get a Epi Prophecy for just over £500. 😂 No doubt Epiphone will sell bucketloads of them. But £1250? Its not steep, its effing vertical.
This guitar is just awesome... Just like the guy it's named after... i also just reviewed it on my channel and would really appreciate it if you checked it out...🙌
Honest shop talk question: Is there a difference with Dave Grohl in relation to RUclips copywrite? In other videos, only snippits of riffs or "in the style of" riffs could be played. Today, full riffs/songs were played.
I just hope that Epiphone's QC is better on these 1k+ guitars than on their regular affordable lineup. I mean, Gibson's QC is known for being unsatisfactory for the money. I would love to have one of these, but I don't want to spend that much money on it. Unless they go out of production within a year or two, and become coveted, meaning that you can flip it for double the price. But we just don't know. I'm not even a flipper, but that's my rationale on this.
All my life I've been searching this thing, but I'm left handed so Gibson ignore me. There are other brands that get pretty close, but a lefty trini lopez theres no hope. All night long I dream I can play, learn right handed, at this stage no way. Leaves me with the feeling that I feel the most, By the time that they release one, I'll be a ghost.
But epi pups vs Gibson pups, no mother of pearl inlays and depends on how much you value pelham blue over walnut and the Trini Lopez styling. I can see why they've priced it this way.
I wanna buy a Epiphone Firebird but I know those things will depreciate in value ridiculously fast. I'm probably one of many who will be waiting for the used market offerings of these new Epiphones. They are sick tho.
I figured it would be clocking in at the $1500/$1600 range with a rosewood board (at least) and a hard case. At least it's got Gibson pickups. Still, $1300 for MIC regular Epi? Nice guitar though.
I bought an Epiphone Lucille two years ago for £700. Two years later an inferior model is almost double the price? Sorry, but no more Epiphones for me.
For a 50% price increase I would have said "nice" but comming in at TWICE the price of a regular Epi ES 335 is just insane, sorry. Same non seller like the new-old Tom Delonge Strat.

@@sillysausage4549 agreed an Epiphone at a Gibson price
Were gonna need an affordable brand for Epiphone now
Need to get me an EpiLOAN at these prices.
They didn’t stop making cheap models. Some d bag has to complain about every guitar that gets released.
Some Harley Benton Guitars are brilliant value for the money.
They’re still cheap models. These are part of the Epiphone inspired by Gibson Custom. This price point makes sense.
@@TheRealDavidFarmer So I suppose you are the complain police. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. Even you friend.
I can't wait for the day i see a the captain meets Dave Grohl video.
wont happen, because he refers to himself as the captain. Dave Grohl said he thought that was stupid af. I was there when he said it.

This is Epiphone crashing and burning at that price. " Move along folks, nothing to see here."
I got Mike last week and is the best sounding and feeling guitar I’ve ever owned!!!
The Dave Grohl phone call. 10/10. 😂
God, Epiphones now costing more than I paid for my Gibson is really quite sad. Damn inflation!
The Dave call killed me. 😂😂😂😂 Well done.
me too... :D that was hilarious 😂
Indian laurel, for $1300?
Agreed. I honestly don't get why Epiphone is so stubborn in sticking to Indian Laurel, even on their "premium" series guitars. Why can PRS SE, Eastman, Ibanez, Yamaha et al do it but Epiphone can't?
@@VN9001 because it doesn't make a difference what kind of wood is used for the fretboard

My first concert was Foo Fighters with Supergrass as the opener in 1997 in a small venue for $12 a ticket .
Id say that was a great gig! And 12 quid?! That wouldn't even get you a beer at a gig now 😐
That's like 2% of what it costs now 😢
You should have asked for your money back.
It wasn't my first concert, but the only time I saw Foo Fighters was at a festival where they were between Creed and Green Day.

Get an Epiphone 339 Pro in Pelham Blue instead, it's a great guitar
The 339 is a very different sounding guitar. It has a much smaller body than the Grohl Guitar does .

You won't get 335 tones or Trini Lopez tones from a 339 and the 339 has crap pickups.

Totally agree…335 standard all day long is better value, and the pickups in them are great
Well, when ya put it like that
Or someone can get a 90's Made in Korea Sheraton for half the price at $500-600.
1250😢 oh my days
I agree more like a £695 guitar
I'm kinda suprised that these are cheaper than the new Firebirds/other Signatures. Nice guitar, but paying more than a grand on a Epiphone is just crazy.
I don't know how crazy it is. That's just a name on a headstock. I don't think I'll buy one but not because of the the price tag and brand.

FRESH POTS!!!
Haha, when you know, you know
Lol!!
Waited all the years with the hope that they’d some day do an affordable lefty DG-335. It’s my holy grail guitar. Devastated😔

This is an awful value tbh. I would need to know deeper details on the specs to actually be convinced at that price point. Yikes
I saw the Dave Grohl Gibson version being made at the Nashville factory during a tour in Oct 2008.
Still waiting for an ANGUS YOUNG EPIPHONE! I just don't understand it. He is one the most iconic Gibson players for decades, in the biggest Rock band of all time and it seems like, Gibson/Epi isn't giving a sh*** 🤬
Great editing job
Waiting for mine to get to the house. Already have the Trini, so the epiphone has big shoe to fill.
Why on earth would I buy this? There are better electric guitars available for half this price

Epiphone, the guitar choice for nurses and paralegals
I think I enjoyed your playing more than the actual guitar review :). Well done on the review and especially the synchronized Foo riffs.
No Epiphone should be above a thousand dollars.
Sorry guys, you've made this thing sound really thin and awful 😩
dunno how you managed to dial in that everlong sound but it sounds amazing

Did you actually listen to it? The tones were awful here lol
Makes sense since studio owners / producers love the AC30
There’s photos from like 1995/96 where Dave is using a Marshall.
I doubt this new business model of charging $1200+ for Chinese made guitars will work for Epiphone. Not when brands like Schecter, LTD and PRS SE exist.
Don't forget about Yamaha and I'd throw Sire in there too.
$2,800 AUD it is here in Australia. I’m a huge foo fighters fan and of Dave’s but very expensive Epiphone along with the Adam jones models
That Everlong was magnificent!
Got mine pre-ordered in New Zealand. Only 4 coming into the country initially apparently. So expensive here too.

Don't worry someone has stuck one on FB marketplace for £2100 lol!
Never understood the signature guitar craze. Just do your own thing.
$1,299
Handcrafted in China
Hard pass
The price is just bad. Even with improvements epiphone have made with their QC they still don’t really hold up to stuff like PRS SE imo.
Looks great but it looks like the days of guitar being an affordable hobby are well and truely over. Hang on to your pre-pandemic purchases, you'll never see those prices again.
Wait a minute, no new Slash or Adam Jones guitar 😱?😂
Cool guitar! I still believe epiphone should’ve never crossed the $1,000 mark though. They’re just not worth it imo
Thanks for your great Demo. Love Epiphone and i have the tommy thayer Explorer and the matt heafy orgins les paul but the prices for epiphones are amazing high😮
It’s as ugly as it’s expensive. Epiphone you’ve lost your mind on the price. 😂 Laurel too!
It has Gibson parts in it and production costs have shot up in general. The price is fair. Theres no way a guitar like this is gonna be sub 1000 now

No doubt Epiphone will sell bucketloads of them. But £1250? Its not steep, its effing vertical.

These are guitars that just beg to pound out some power chords. Not exactly suitable for Polyphia.

well said.
