What 2019 Epiphone Model Sg is now in 2024 a collectors Epiphone Sg and has risen in value.. tell us ..

[@naxguitar74]

Great guitar … i woluld like to buy a lp 59 but why no resewood on keyboard? The price is quite high to have a higher quality on that … it’s the only thing that is stopping me to buy it …

[@adamwatson6916]

They don't use Rosewood due to restrictions on using Rosewood for import Guitars from China bound for western markets. It's Called the CITES treaty .. It's the same reason Eastman uses ebony boards on their 1959 les Paul clones .

Yes, Sweet Water you tell them you wanna pay one payment a month they’re Loan Company tries to get two and then when you won’t pay them, they won’t let you buy anything else ever

[@Edward1312]

Why pay £1200 for an Epiphone LP when if you look around hard enough you could pick up a Gibson LP standard 2nd hand for that sort of money or you could buy a Japanese Tokai or Eastman LP which have solid tops and rosewood boards.

[@kriswhite91]

There’s no way that you can find a Gibson standard for 1200. Unless is completely beaten up. Not even classics are at that price used.

[@jasonswitzer1748]

You could get a Tribute for $1,000 usd. It’s a great guitar if that’s your jam.

[@Edward1312]

@@jasonswitzer1748 I'd rather have the new Epiphone 59 than a tribute.

[@jasonswitzer1748]

@@Edward1312 I played the both (well… the last Epi 1959 at $999) and preferred the Tribute, but that’s just me. If you dig the new Epiphones, that just shows how good they are. Everybody’s a winner when new guitars come out. :)

Gibson went from a company that was detached from what customers wanted a few years ago to a company that is now offering all the stuff people asked for and shamelessly overcharges for it.

[@itslikethesamebutdifferent8020]

So you want Gibson custom shop specs and electronics for $299- $399? The one who should be ashamed here is you.

1800 dollars for a guitar that cant stay in tune, that you have to file the nut and saddles, polish and sand the fretboard.... this is absolutely ridiculous

Epiphone is still under priced I have three 2021 high end epiphones and wouldn't have it any other way excellent epiphone

[@modestoney1577]

I bought a Gibson USA Firebird 2016 model with Lyre vibrato, rosewood fingerboard, nitro finish with OHSC on a deal for €990 brand new from the shop. Now an Epiphone made in China (?) Firebird with poly finish and not even a real bone nut costs $1800 and you call that "underpriced"??? That`s almost twice the money. Nothing about these new Epis is "high end", except for electronics and hardware maybe.

[@modestoney1577]

@@LeopoldShitzalot They are expensive to make - poly finishes are cheaper to make. That`s why nitro explaines a higher price. What about these guitars makes them so expensive?

[@FrankBuyers...guitarista-iu3zg]

Epiphone is where they should have been always.. nothing overpriced priced about the legendary Epiphone brand..

[@modestoney1577]

LOL. Do you get paid by Gibson to write that? I personally don`t pay for a brand history or a name - I pay for the quality of the instrument. I get.

[@modestoney1577]

@@FrankBuyers...guitarista-iu3zg I don`t want to afford Epis of this quality at this price point. I`ll happily stick with my Gibsons, that cost about the same a few years ago. ;)
