I have the Adam Jones with the Gibson headstock. I own 14 other very nice guitars. My Adam Jones is one of the best I own. And the sustain is unbelievable! I was blown away. But to be fair with his point of crappy Epiphones... I actually have the white custome Epiphone in this video, and lets just say this... I never play it!!
You would think with outrageous price for Gibson's you wouldn't be seeing all the comments about them so negative. This is what happens when the corporate minds take over companies. That's why SLINGERLAND isn't around anymore.
Young man, the reason Epiphones are much cheaper than Gibsons is because they're made in China rather than here. That's the biggest reason- yes, the components and materials can be 'cheaper' but the country of origin of production is the main reason, by far. You're welcome.
I have two Gibson and they are great but…. The tuners are Gibson branded schaller tuners (made in China). The bridge and tail abr-1 also made in China. Most of the wood is imported as well. American made isn’t the same as it was 50 years ago
@morbidmanmusic he didn't say anything about it in his clip so no, incorrect assumption, especially when his video is expressly about price difference and reasons why.
@mattski85 certainly not, I'd agree- yeah components are from everywhere but made in USA costs much more for labor but the build quality is superior to China made, that's all.
"Cheaper", Epiphone and all Gibson products sucks since around 2008, get any other guitar and will be way better than Gibson bullshit. Now I see why Charvel is setting higher prices, they have way better quality.
I mean they arent a Gibson but I have the Matt Heafy signature 7 string and it is one of the best guitars I have owned or played. I dont care for trivium but the guitar is phenomenal and I would pick it over most other guitars and Gibson no longer makes any 7 string guitars. I would bet the newer Epiphone origins MKH is better than the 7 strings that Gibson did make.

Way cool 😎! I like the SG.. ❤.😊.
Sg's suck. To twangy like crappy country music
@Davemesserjr lol 😂! To each their own opinion. Peace ✌.
And in your opinion, what would you consider a fine guitar? Just curious... I never met a guitar I didn't like. Lol 😂.
I just got a Gibson les paul classic 2019;)))
Yet, but not having the maple top affects the tone.
It affects the tone in the most minor way. Components and proper set up are 20 times more important for shaping the tone than a different wood on top.

@ 1000 percent brother!
The inspired by custom series is a bit better than these
Epi just dont do it for me. It shows where its made. I need quality
Buy a vintage Hamer...😅
Epiphone>Gibson
Ephiphone moderns are just as good as gibson,Period.If somebody doesn't understand that.They're known as guitar snobs!😅
Way too expensive for a guitar with tuning instability
Nope . 😞
ESP.
Better than a Gibson any day of the week 😂
Waste of money
oh stop, they are fine if you can actually play. but you go waste money!
@@morbidmanmusicNo, it's not 'fine' when your strings consistently slip out of tune, and the volume and tone controls barely work.

For 700 bucks its garbage. Epifones suck
