Sustain Comparison

[Johnny Dubs]

This is six years old, may have been posted before.

Gibson, Epi, Ibanez, PRS, and Music Man in three simple sustain tests.

Is it a scientific? Maybe not. But do I know in my heart that the results are accurate?

Hecks yeah.

Amazing the Epiphone dominated the entire field of guitars tested.

When I got my Epi LP Trib+, I played a note. Then I went to the kitchen, made a sandwich, ate it while watching a movie on Netflix, took out the trash, washed the dishes, and the note was still ringing. Would I lie you?

To say that I had a Tribute and sold it without doing the sustain test. Damned !
Can I do it on a photo of it you think ?

That note's probably still ringing at the new owner's place!!!

What kind of sandwich did you make? I made a meatball sub from scratch, even baking the bread.

You've got time to grow the wheat and raise the cows.

Long after the apocalypse... when mankind has met an end... the roaches still hear the Epiphone

Hey Johnny. "New Member"? Welcome aboard!
Great first post. I'm guessing all of us at EpiTalk love to see Epiphones trouncing the competition no matter how dodgy the test may be.
Seemed legit to me.
Cheers!

Legend has it that the note is still ringing...

Welcome. It didn’t appear that the guitars were all tuned the same or if it was, the same feet wasn’t used in the no bend test.

The same fret

Does it matter if it's still ringing?

Boy, the gear snobs at the My Les Paul forum, Gear Page and Harmony Central would throw a fit over that video .

My 2007 Epiphone LPC, is Monster when distorted , it really is percussive when I palm mute and easy to do pinch harmonics .

Comes to show you, Epiphone guitars are as good or better than a Gibson, especially when modified to taste .
