Beautiful!
That Epiphone headstock inlay is actually the older style epi. Inlay. Looks great!!
Hey look! An affordable Epiphone! Holy Bleep!
Great review, ordered earlier thank you
Cathy made you a masterpiece of a guitar. The attention to detail in the guitar is flawless. As for the Epiphone on the headstock, it's your guitar man you can have anything you want to be put on the headstock. I have recently ordered a guitar from Cathy and I hope I am as happy with my guitar as you are with your guitar. Keep making your great videos.
Thanks brother 🙏
how do I get one? phone number? anything so I can order one
I finally get it! A luthier is free to custom build you a guitar with logos, even one like the official brand. You get better for way less money in a private guitar.
Bad ass FSB! The black and white showed the grain well that was cool! the pick of the reflection of your guitars on the wall is priceless! God Cathy's guitar looks and Rocks out so great!! Definitely a one of a kind build nobody would have ever come up with 😂 great video FSB!!
sweet guitar as always brotha!
we cant forget about gary moore having an influence on this iconic masterpiece as well....
when peter green had it all 4 knobs were amber...then gary moore bought the guitar from peter and put the 2 bottom gold with silver buttons to help him on a dark stage(if i remember correctly from a 5watt world fim about it)....
Wow that guitar looked great earlier in the week and now it sounds great too. I'm not much of a metal head but I bet that guitar can spill out some Peter Green and Gary Moore Blues. Beautiful guitar. I'm still going to have Peter Green's name stamped in the headstock when I order one. Thanks for the video.
Ya,screw kirks dumb butt.he forgot how to play guitar.
That build you had Cathy to do is awesome!!
I like the Epi logo.
The guitar sounds great, and looks killer.
You did well Grasshopper!!!
Thanks for creating videos on these custom builds.
Thanks for watching 🙂
Great looking guitar. Cathy appears to do fantastic work.
Thanks brother. She definitely hit it out of the park. I'm a believer
Kudos to Cathy for such amazing work on this fine guitar,chibsons will continue to gain popularity ,as long as the quality is this good,reports of good guitars coming from all sellers, far outweighs the few bad reviews these days,trolls expecting guitars, that are in stock and off the shelf,to not have any problems is a joke,budget guitars from other brands, have just as many problems and need work too,your just not going to find a better mod platform,then you can get with a chibson,why not buy a firefly or a Harley Benton, because I have,and even my elite FFLP with Seymour Duncan that I love,is not as good as my chibson standard LP,that’s just a fact, and for the same price.
Would love to see her do a striped Kramer 5150 that actually looks like it should. 🤔 Wonder if she could do one? I'd buy one right now. 😁🎸 That guitar looks very nice btw
The more I see it, the more I like it.
Glad you are going to review that Slash, I was actually looking at that the other day, a review would be great.
Been seriously considering their AFD relic myself, especially since it comes with a hard case.
Mike, that guitar is an amazing work of art and I like all the differences as compared to the original Epiphone Greeny. I'll even go as far to say that I like this one better than the original Gibson Greeny! That is a whole lotta guitar for just $600.
It truly is an amazing job. . It's Funny you can show some people all day long the quality , and the refuse to believe it. Some people still believe in Fairies 🧚♂️ and pixie dust being built into name brand guitars. It kinda comical. But kinda sad also that they are that indoctrinated. 😕 😆. As always thanks for stopping by Nick You Rock Brother!
@@FultonStreetBeats so true, I don’t think a lot of people realize how lucky they have it these days with all the choices of quality instruments for a good price. When I started back in the 1970s we had only Gibson and Fender and anything else was considered junk.
We all miss one point about the Epiphone, I guess it comes with the $999.00 pick ups.😂
The better “greeny’s” imo, were the 2000’s gibson gary moore signatures. They just had that SOUL in them! Listen to Parisienne walkways if you would like an example!
Oh yes! Before i forget!!! Cathy made you a beautiful looking and phenomenal sounding guitar, btw!!! Absolutely FANTASTIC!!!
@charlesjebarb2863 thanks brother. She did do an amazing job for sure.
I’d like this 1959 made with a thinner neck, belly cut, and high fret access crave please.
You did it right playing to the strengths of Chinese manufacturers. They have been making furniture longer than they've been making guitars. They have good mahogany and maple. Properly sourced and aged. I'm sure its as toneful as any real Gibson. But I would never touch their alder or swamp ash. Cathy does good work with good materials. Gleeson does as well. I have the same Gleeson Angus Young SG as you and its one of the best made Chibsons you'll find. No doubt when the wood and the build are right these can become as good as any guitar. I def feel that necks are still a peril. This is a new skill for Chinese builders that they have not yet mastered. No matter how good the guitar, neck imperfections can cause great compromise. I got lucky with mine. I assume they got yours right. Did you have to press them? Also your finish looks amazing. Possibly the best I've seen on a Chibson to date. Did you make any special requests on the finish? They do seem to be elevating the standard quickly.
Yes, virtually every part of this guitar was to my specs, to fit me. She hit it out of the park.
@@FultonStreetBeats for sure. That's a lifer right there. Enjoy!
@@FultonStreetBeats What did you request regarding the neck?
Why not get the cavities foil shielded so you keep out the most hum and noise possible?
It honestly doesn't suffer from microphonics.
I have pretty much this exact guitar coming from Cathy in the next week or so, all custom ! I’m curious where you got the orange drops ?
I’ve seen 47uf and 22uf and not sure which is which. Thanks
.022 uf 800v what I use for buckers. These are vintage 74 Sprague orange drops I picked up from Ebay.
Can we call it a Chibiphone? :)
How do you go about getting them to customize it the way you want? I went on the website, but do you just reach out to them by email? Or how does that work
Mike quick question? Are you the first one to get a full blown Custom where you don't have to do any upgrades? I believe if your guitar is that good, people would be willing to easily spend $600 vs $2-300 for a normal guitar and get a Custom Chibson vs spending thousands for a Gibson. I know I would anyway. Congrats to you. Your "Greeny" looks and sounds awesome!!!!!
No I'm not the first. People have Very nice Chinese customs built all of the time. Even custom logos with their name, etc... I have a custom being made now to my specs. The logo is not a name brand it's a custom design. Again it's spec'd out.
I’ve ordered almost this exact model with my custom specs from Cathy about 6 weeks ago. Damn excited now
Question about Chibsons, how are the necks on those?
That all depends. Chibson is not a brand. It is a slang term. The necks very from manufacturer to manufacturer. And from request.
👍 Mikey
What no glitter ? Lol
Just wait a while. lol
@@FultonStreetBeats LMAO i can just see it now ! That poor guitar !! 🎸
@timmy4539 this one stays the same. It's perfect 👌
That song you’re working on has a nasty swagger to it man!! Very cool!!! Much of an up charge to get clear cover plates for the back?
Thanks brother. It was no extra charge for the clear covers.
VERY Nice AXE!!! I have been making clear cav covers for my guitars. Rock on Mike
Where did you order it from. I want one
Im in the UK, where can i order a Chibson?
You broke the headstock twice? Just kidding! ☠️☠️🖖🏻
Guess what….
My $3200 Greeny did not come with a COA either..
I think you have to spend 25k for that unfortunately. Paper is expensive these days. Lol
@@FultonStreetBeats 😂😂😂
Always change the strings on a new guitar. Always.
Not mistaken? To a person that know nothing I not sure about hat he could not be fooled. It’s nice but I will never buy a knock off . Just a personal taste . It’s very well built…
A person who knows nothing can be fooled that a Kia is a Bentley.
Kirks name tarnishes the whole guitar.his heads in th wishy washy clouds.and thinks hes some innovative improv master of the tiny lil blues box..and that's it..just that lil box.he forgot every other scale he knew..appeeantly.and ushered himself into wah wah joke-land.and highly delusional about his scales.
He owns it just like Green and Moore did..
Has every right to be associated with it..
Waiting patiently for your signature model..
