    Do you remove your stickers?

    Those? No. Stickers that come on pickguards, yes.

    What did you do to your Epiphone today?

    I listened to The Strokes album Is This It, which inspired me to lay down a track with my Epiphone Casino that I had intended to record on an acoustic, but there was too much hubbub in the house to record with a microphone.

    Two days…two new Epi’s 😁

    You would be doomed? You SHOULD be doomed. A thread title like this with no pictures. Where I come from that’s a felony.

    Anybody owns a SG from both, Epiphone and Gibson?

    “Slim tapered C.” I’ve got more than a few guitars right now. They have all kinds of neck profiles and fretboard radii. The only one that jumps out at me as different is my Telecaster with an Allparts fat neck. That thing feels massive. The SG just feels like a guitar neck. It has a 12”...

    Anybody owns a SG from both, Epiphone and Gibson?

    I’ve owned an Epiphone G-400, a Gibson SG Standard and I currently own an Epiphone 1961 Les Paul SG. I’ve played many other Epiphone and Gibson SG’s. Most recently I test drove Standards by both. The Gibson was a bit nicer, but not $1400 nicer. I’d have been happy with the Epiphone, but I...

    What guitar brands do you have enough of, as in you aren't going to buy any more of them? And, which ones are you now considering.

    I would say none and none right now.

    (Soon to be NGD) Epiphone LP Muse

    NGD means new guitar day or new gear day. As in, you have it in your possession and are going to show us pics. You have merely teased us cruelly.

    What did you do to your Epiphone today?

    Put new strings on my new SG and set the intonation.

    What did you do to your Epiphone today?

    I wanted to re-record a solo on a song I’m mixing and grabbed my SG. Didn’t like what I was hearing so I recorded it on a different guitar. No shame there. Different horses for different courses.

    Not my best NGD

    When I returned it to my local GC, I played a few guitars while I waited for them to do the paperwork. Every guitar I tuned made me nervous.

    I just couldn't NOT buy this Birdseye Classic!

    Wow. Cool. I’ve never seen a Lester like that. I get goosebumps just looking at it.

    Not my best NGD

    So about a week and a half ago I bought a used Epiphone Les Paul Special in TV yellow listed in excellent condition from GC in Scranton, Pennsylvania. (I live near Indianapolis) I’ve been on the prowl for a P90 guitar and this one was on my very short short list. For $250 I jumped on it. It...

    New Old Guy in the house

    Hey guys and gals. It's Otis. I've been playing guitar now for 33 years. I've owned at least 7 Epiphones in that time. A couple Sheratons, a Les Paul or two, a Thunderbird bass, a Casino and the only Epiphone still in the house, a very sweet G-400. I've collected a few guitars over the...
