$999 US

Mmhmm. Wild that a custom with one pickup, two knobs, and no switch costs $200 more than a custom with two pickups, four knobs, and a switch.

The blue does look nice on videos.

This was a nice one to watch

The custom made P90 must have something to do with that.

The custom made P90 must have something to do with that.

That may be the case, but looking at the black or gold ones, those are $200 and 150 less respectively. They also come with SD P90s, and SD dog ears don't range in price that much. The "JJN Silencer" is 149 retail, the only other dog ears they offer are 139. It is possible SD made a cheap pickup for the prior models I suppose.

I can't help feeling there's a reverse limbo game going on at Epi. Let's see how high we can raise the bar and people still get through.

Does it come with a soft case?

It's getting ridiculous.

€1100 for this guitar ?

Does it come with a soft case?

Yep, but it's not an epilite case. It looks like a gigbag from another vendor made for this collab.

That's a good point... As far as I can tell, the SD P90 that came with the previous rendition are the same as the normal aftermarket SD P90 dog ears...

It does seem weird if only this model is $999 - but the "things have gotten more expensive" line doesn't seem to work logically unless they raise the price of Gold Glory too (not that I'm asking for them to do so)

I agree way too much for that guitar. I almost paid $668 for this PRS model in a demo sale. https://www.sweetwater.com/store/de...glecut-mccarty-594-electric-guitar-black-gold


I like that model because it has the same scale as a gibson Les Paul. I snoozed so it's gone but I will get a new guitar very soon.
