They might try to sniff the nitro. Should also be nose plugged ... with cork ?My advice would be to not compare them blindfolded. LOL
My advice would be to get some P90s in your life Dr! Great collection but you're missing out!My advice would be to not compare them blindfolded. LOL
I've thought about the P-90's I keep an eye for that player out there upgrading and wants to unload a set for a song. You wouldn't have an old pair laying around by chance? I had an SG Standard Gibson I sold a few years back, I could compare it on the spot to my Epi G400.I didn't notice anything that would justify the price difference.My advice would be to get some P90s in your life Dr!

I've had a few friends who thought badly about Epiphones until they played one or two of mine. I haven't played long enough to know, but I get the impression that Epiphone may have earned a bad reputation in the past and just hasn't shaken it off yet.
I have 8 IBG EPI also have a Gibson LP Tribute and SG Standard. So yeah, they make the grade for me.I've thought about the P-90's I keep an eye for that player out there upgrading and wants to unload a set for a song.

Well concidering Gibson stopped using the inspired by when it comes to the Les Paul solid body guitar because actually Gibson didn't inspire Epiphone it's was Les Paul in the Epiphone facility in New York 1939 into 41 is where and who actually began the les Paul solid body guitar the guitar was the log so your epiphone Les Pauls are the real deal..and it was in 2019 that JC Curliegh Restored Epiphone back to where they should have always been in the first place epiphone was never meant to be a budget brand Norlin ruined epiphone when they took over Gibson and it was JC Curliegh who restored epiphone in 2019I've heard that the Epi's can't compete with the 'real thing' Gibsons, that's why they cost thousands more. I don't know how I can answer that, except I own a few Epiphones at present and some more in the past. My advice would be to not compare them blindfolded.

No Les Paul and Epiphone the Gibson Les Paul wouldn't exist today a fact full articles on line.. Gibson and fanboys BS ended long ago with the Gibson lawsuit disaster
A friend of mine learned this the bad way. He has had a Gibson LP since the 80s that has held up well. He recently forked out the money for one of those satin finish ones in cherry and he loves it, but it already flaked off where he anchors his pinky while playing. He has only played it a few times per month since August. It will only get worse. He has asked around and luthiers say no repairing, it would need a full refinish.If you want a guitar that ages and shows it, get a Gibson.
