Скачать или смотреть Gibson is finally starting to get it

In this video, I compare the new Epiphone Inspired by Gibson Custom 1960s Les Paul to a USA Gibson Les Paul Standard and my personal Gibson Custom Shop R9. Built in China but spec’d like a high-end Gibson, this new Epiphone is designed to offer custom shop-level appointments at an attainable price.

Is it just a budget-friendly Les Paul? Or is this Gibson’s smartest move in years? We break it all down — tone, feel, build quality, electronics, and value — and talk about what this shift really means for the guitar industry.

Huge thanks to my friend Zach Broyles from ‪@MythosPedals‬ for joining me today, check out our podcast ‪@DippedInTone‬

As always huge thanks to ‪@sweetwater‬ for sponsoring today's video
