About us:
“Birth”
Music Bliss came about in June of 2009, residing in a humble shop lot catering to music lessons and sales of instruments. As humble as it was, Music Bliss quickly grew to expand its range of products at a point in time where boutique products such as guitar effects pedals were on the rise.
“Bliss”
As the name implies, Music Bliss truly aims to consistently provide excitement with our choice of products. It didn’t take long for people and musicians to notice that, and thanks to the age of the Internet people began frequenting both our site and our physical store at a quick pace.
“Insistence”
We’re people pleasers, we don’t settle for less and we don’t do this just because “It’s Our Job”. Music Bliss has always insisted to recommend and obtain products that the people want. That is exactly how the store grew; from obtaining rare and boutique effects pedals for musicians to catering to pro audio systems for international schools and event companies.
“Rise”
Fast forward to 2019, Music Bliss has expanded to a Mega Showroom (Located in Petaling Utama, amidst of Kuala Lumpur and Petaling Jaya, nearby Sunway and easily accessible through Old Klang Road as well as Puchong) with 3 separate floors for every product category. Because of the support of our loyal customers, Music Bliss now proudly has everything you’ll need: Guitars, Amps, Keyboards, Drums, Digital Pianos Studio Recording Equipment, Live Sound Equipment, Jamming Studios and an assortment of accessories to compliment your instruments and equipment.

The Epiphones are indeed legitimate Les Pauls...
Gibson has done a great job at raising the upper end Epiphone to be about as good as anything.
If you love a Les Paul Standard...This guitar is tangibly the real deal and certainly does the job.
I love the chunky neck on my Epiphone LP Standard 50's. Also, I love the Probucker 1 in the neck position. Great guitar for not a lot of money. ✌️🎸
Have 2020 LP standard. I have owned Gibson, and this epi is just amazing....
Bro! Love the way you play, man. Love my Epiphone, doubt I'd ever buy a Gibson over an Epiphone.
Nice review. Loved your playing.
fantastic review and playing
Lovely tones. Great looking guitar. The chunky necks are nice. Thanks for an excellent demo. 👍
Awesome video. I have that exact guitar with a Boss Katana amp. Love it!
Nice playing, beautiful guitar!
That good sir is an epic beard and great playing too ❤
It's barely visible, but i think i noticed a scarfjoint which makes it better than any Gibson because they're always an accident waiting to happen. Ask any luthier, a scarfjoint is much stronger and more reliable.
❤❤❤ love and support ❤️ 💕 💗
A nice amp and a nicely set up Epiphone Les Paul and save $2,500 is like hitting the lottery without paying taxes . lol
i love mine
Played my exact same guirar for A Month everyday when i got it 🏆
I have a epiphone les Paul 60’s do I need to switch to this one or does the 60’s gets the job done too
You gotta catch em all. More guitars = happiness
My Gibson never stays in tune like my Episode will for days weeks sometimes
Epiphone
This guitar is the one!
Yep but mines Heritage cherry burst its perfect
@@motorcyclemark2889 yeah no you’re right that ones actually way nicer looking so yeah
I own both and no not better but just as good and the epiphone will outlast the Gibson because of the better poly finish so in 20 years when that Gibson paint is all sticky and rolling under your hand in little dingle berries and the wood is swollen from the damp air getting through the finish the Epiphone will be perfect
A Toyota Corolla is not better than a Maserati , but the oil changes don’t cost $400 bucks . Corolla please , thank you .
Weird analogy. It would have made more sense to mention Lexus and Toyota or Genesis and Hyundai, since those are the luxury counterparts to each of those companies. Go Birds though!
A Toyota is better than any car if we’re talking reliability
It will hold its value way better then the so.called luxury car will ever do
I have a friend with a $15,000 bicycle that he doesn’t ride I have a friend with a $27,000 motorcycle that he doesn’t ride i have a friend with a Custom Shop Les Paul $5,800 but he can’t even play a chord I can afford a Gibson but honestly I don’t believe they are worth $3,299 I don’t care if the Epiphone has a different finish or different pickups sitting in my living room the Epiphone works fine for me 😐 I know some people think they know better and they think if you don’t play a Gibson you are stupid but I believe the opposite 😎
Overpriced Chinese junk
Most Epiphones are junk. There are exceptions but the electronics, hardware and wood are very subpar to Gibson USA. There is a great YT video showing what kind of wood they actually use. Alot of times they claim Mahogany but its actually not. Chinese electronics are junk.
I used to feel the same way, but they have stepped up their game. A lot of the new ones have cts pots and orange drop capacitors now. Thats the case on my Firebird, LP junior, and 335 that I’ve bought recently. I have Gibsons, PRS, and Fenders, and still feel they are great guitars.
The lower priced ones probably are but the stuff around the $500 range and up is great for the price. I'm not even that great of a guitar player and I get really impressive tones out of this exact guitar sure I had it setup but it holds tuning very well.
@@jvstrat1 I bought a DG335, which uses all Gibson USA electronics, pups, machine heads with Hardshell Case
Bull sheep the Epi is the best
All of the Inspired by Gibson and Inspired by the Custom Shop have USA electronics. I got rid of my shitty Gibson Les Paul 2006ish model after I got the inspired Epiphone. I also have the Firebird and it rocks. Can a professional player tell the difference, probably but not many professional full time musicians hanging out on these pages. When I see the most recorded guitarist in Nashville, Brent Mason, bring his Epiphone Slash Les Paul to the studio and use it on tracks, that says enough. Some of you guys are so worried about the name on the headstock and will go to great lengths to justify buying a $2K more expensive guitar so you can take it to your once a month gig down at the pizza place. No one cares what you’re playing as long as it sounds good. Lots of touring musicians these days are playing import Fenders, PRS and other guitars but hey, what do they know? Good grief.
Is a Chinese guitar with a thick plastic finish, cheaper pickups, cheaper parts, mystery wood (hint, it's not the same as what Gibson uses) better than a real Gibson made in Nashville? No. Just no. You can like it. That's fine with me. But the clickbait nonsense... sigh.
Bang on mate.
Yeah well I had the Gibson version, and it SUCKED. Gibson's quality control has gone to Hell. Ad to that Gibson DID NOT make their version historically correct. A real 50's Goldtop HAS A LONG NECK TENON. The Gibby does NOT, the EPI DOES!
Being made in Nashville means nothing to me these days, the Epi sounfs just fine through my Plexi.
