Epiphone ET 270 Nirvana Tones

[@NirvanaGuitars]

YEEESSS we need more ET270 content! 🥳 sounds so good, my favorites were Dive & Even in His Youth This model holds a special place in my heart, I’ve researched it left & right but I was today years old when I learned they were first made with the strat style headstock 🤯 very fitting considering the body shape, basically Epiphone’s take on a Stratocaster I read on a forum someone saying that it’s a bass boost switch, but it actually makes way more sense that it’d be cutting frequencies instead of adding. Always learning something new from JQ, thanks for this video!! 👏🏻

Thanks! I too heard that it's a bass boost switch, but there is a capacitor on that switch acting as a high pass filter. With that switch removed entirely, it would sound the same as if that switch were up

Hey Eric, could you please do more content on the pine street theatre show. If you could that would be awesome!!!

Well the it’s like a Univox type guitar right thing!!! It’s a Japanese guitar “sears catalog” thing and brands out there names on it:] other companys that also sold this guitar were “Aria” and “lyle”…the arias and epiphones where made in the same factory apparently!:] I really wanna buy the aria one

[@chowderthecoolest]

That's so cool that the first year they were made they had a strat style headstock, i learn something new everyday

[@cyrus1726]

The et270 was a rebranded aria if i recall

[@jq.guitars]

Aria is the brand that was sold overseas, there are Aria versions of most, if not all guitars from the Matsumoko factory

[@BataraKado]

hey JQ you listened to my comment, it was such a great idea to make this a video!! sounds great.. like a tiny picture into the sound kurt used at one point in time pre nevermind... super cool.. he deffs used a fender twin reverb silverface for the bleach tour with this guitar.. and of course the vintage ds-1, no small clone.. lol absolute workhorse, just clean or distortion is all you need..

[@ianclevenger9714]

He finally played sappy in standard tuning like Kurt did during the time period he used his et-270

[@wastewoodrockers5526]

Nice guitar, I always loved the body shape. It sounds great as well!

[@kurtsgear]

Awesome video man ❤

[@gmoney4526]

Sounds really good on the bleach songs! When I first got my utah quad reverb i thought guitars didnt matter at all, but after try and try with different guitars Ive been left with a true realization that the guitars seem to matter as much as the amp. My mustang is very thin on the bass side compared to my jag and the gibson les paul is very overall thin sounding on the quad but very distinct on my marshall cab.

another W jq video

This shi fire🔥🔥🔥💯💯🔥🔥🔥

[@servingservants6539]

the even in his youth tone is absolutely phenomenal, what are you using in terms of amps, pedals, or irs?

[@jq.guitars]

Just a DS1 into the In Utero IR pack

[@Otis-l4z]

How much did you get it for?
