Unbelievably, this is literally the only video on YT which demonstrates clean sound of this guitar. Not even JJN ever plays it clean. Well done sir.

[@marcinwyc]

Big sound! Awesome demo Nick!

[@GuitarInteractive]

😎🙏

[@Guyverguyver9]

I love that it looks classic but vintage at the same time. Like a cool car

[@robertrichards4355]

9:49 great clean sound. Awesome playing.

[@ResponseAudio]

Cool guitar! Great demo, Nick!

[@GuitarInteractive]

Thanks for checking it out

[@chrisdaviesguitar]

Met and jammed with JJN at a Blackstar demo a couple of years ago. What nice, polite bloke, not to mentioned extremely talented.

[@todds5956]

Killer playing❤

[@DimKAt21]

For the first time my G.A.S got triggered by an Epiphone. I might be writing a letter to Santa soon...

[@jimjersey2345]

This guitar and the Epiphone Alex Lifeson trigger my G.A.S. both are amazing guitars, and I especially love the gibson style headstock... why didn't Epiphone do that earlier ?

[@johnmac8084]

Great demo Nick. It was good to see Jared himself on your livestream yesterday.

[@GuitarInteractive]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@PikaStu666]

Hefty price, but it sure is stunning! I have the Old Glory and absolutely adore it. I have fairly small hands but I find chunky necks comfy as hell. The P90 is an issue though as I play with high gain and it's so f**king noisy! Perhaps I should fit this new noiseless pickup to mine. Great video, killer intro!

[@Ottophil]

I use a tc sentry which works wonders for the in between note noise. Usually the noise is audible while playing. With p90’s i turn the gate off and spin around 360 degrees. I find theres usually one or two directions that are less noisey than others. Once i find the quiet spot, turn the gate back on. But you’re right. I need this blues power guitar/ pickup too

[@jeffreyrivers1983]

I thought it was a matte gray... well I was going to buy one.

[@johnmac8084]

Yes, it looks metallic grey on my monitor, I'm not getting much blue

[@sEaNoYeAh]

Much more Pelham blue irl. A grey that shade would be sick though

[@jeffreyrivers1983]

@@sEaNoYeAh I agree and would immediately buy it

[@sEaNoYeAh]

Played one of these today, sounds great but I have to say the fit and finish is not good enough for this price. The binding was sharp all along the neck and for much of the body. Clear lines and imperfect anywhere materials were bound. For the Les Paul ballpark with P90/P90s I'd go Revstar over this any day. Just drastically better quality.

[@nickklein4676]

That’s the issues I have with epiphone. They look amazing. But charge is steep when I can get a les Paul tribute that is pleked and handmade is USA. Not to mention nitro. But this looks so gooooood

[@hegedustamas90]

14:37 unbelievable

[@TheChicagoTodd]

Wow....really great video. This is so enticing!

[@GuitarInteractive]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@chrisjames1924]

PRS SE One is very similar. I recently bought the Korina version second hand in mint condition for just 275 quid. 1000 quid for the Epi seems steep but their quality has got a lot better in recent years,

[@bryantherocker]

It doesn't sound like a real P90, the P90 is more open sounding, but this guitar sounds good.

[@andrewstimmel4223]

Well, If it had 2 Seymour Duncan pickups & Finish was in a Vintage Sunburst , I'd Purchase Immediately!😉💥

[@jasonulrich3818]

Sounds killer

[@azt3ca]

Big sound and Big price.

[@metalmonti]

£999 for a Epiphone. Think I will pass

[@BlueberryStinkFinger62]

That's ok epiphone won't miss you

[@sEaNoYeAh]

Some Epis are worth that. My stepfather has a Greeny that's legitimately phenomenal, better than his Gibson Les Paul Standard for fit and finish and sound. This Blue Power guitar tho, played one today and the fit and finish was poor for the price. Sharp binding all along the neck and most of the body. Just clear lines and crude finishing wherever materials touched. Something like a Revstar Standard blows this out the water and costs less, though I did really enjoy the sound of this guitar.

[@Neil-Aspinall]

Some woeful notes that clash

[@jimjersey2345]

I wonder what it would sound like if the pickup was raised closer to the strings...

[@b.i.g.brothersinguitars249]

It is a stunning looking guitar! but that's all:) Thanks bro
