But there is a very interesting rumor! Les paul's first solid guitar "Log" is said to have been made in epiphone's factory! Gibson didn't take a fancy to such a "thing" at first, until Fanta launched telecaster, and Gibson invited les paul back to make a physical guitar! Les paul as we know it!
Indeed, as the first two said! Epiphone 60 years ago lost to Gibson in brand, patent and workmanship! Is one of Gibson's biggest competitors! Until the outbreak of World War II! Epiphone factory closed down! And it was officially acquired by Gibson on1May, 957 10! Become a subsidiary of Gibson!
Said some nonsense! Briefly talk about the history of the two families! Let's formally answer the question!
Since you are asking about cost performance, it must be epiphone! But it depends on how much you plan to spend! And what style do you like! If the budget is not much! I recommend the domestic epiphone les paul standard! The domestic epiphone les paul standard is also well-made! Another time, I saw a foreigner praising a video of epiphone lp standard made in China! If the budget is large! You can consider Korean epi phone LP Studio/ standard/customization! If you can pay about 10 thousand! Just consider gibson lp Studio! What? ! You can pay more than 15 thousand Then what else to consider! Buy a Gibson lp standard!
Of course, if you can't afford the above! Then think about epiphone Studio! Personally, I think the cost performance is still very good! The timbre feels good The price should be within 2000!
In addition, epiphone recently launched a product called Epiphone Tribute to les paul 1960! It should be the closest to Gibson's domestic epiphone! Most of the accessories are American! Especially the pickup truck belongs to Gibson!
The price is around 6000! Not bad, les paul! More recommended!
As for the "red broken glass flower" you said? Excuse me! I don't know what you mean by broken glass flowers! But the red les paul should not be difficult to find!
Finally, les paul, not recommended! Say yes first! Just personally think! If you think it is wrong, please correct me! It is best to correct it after use! But don't spray!
The first one thought it was a domestic black beauty! Domestic black beauty only stands out in the intermediate frequency! The sound is easily covered by other instruments! The price is much more expensive than customization! But the overall performance is not better than customization!
The second Nissan epiphone les paul! Nissan epiphone has always been called the highest-end epiphone except American products! No matter from materials to workmanship, it belongs to the top class! And Nissan's fine workmanship is also well-known! But its price is almost as expensive as Gibson's! And the timbre of Japanese pianos is less than that of American pianos! Personally not recommended!
Finally, epiphone special2 and lp 100! The former price is between 700-900! The latter is not very clear! About a price! These two are also the lowest-end epiphone les paul! But honestly! I prefer epiphone SG G3 10 at the same price! Same price! But the quality is much worse! So it is not recommended!
That's all I know Wrong, please throw me the truth!
