The thing about Epiphone price gouging is that many of us resist paying the ridiculous prices and eventually they drop like a stone and we can swoop in and pick up a bargain... like this 63 Firebird at a massive £500 discount! 😝 Ok it was still expensive but that's GAS for you... got to keep it lit!

The Guitaristas YouTube channel is fully independent of sponsorship, paid reviews, and supported/gifted products... it's all the thrills without the shills! 🎸But this content costs real time and a lot of money to make so my own way of raising a few extra $$ to fund the channel is via the subscription TV Channel at: https://theguitaristas.tv and I am very grateful to my growing army of loyal supporters there who help fund this content, make it possible, and keep it real. You know who you are. 🙏
I AM NOT AN EXPERT. Some things I do know and some things I don't know but think I know and sometimes I say things that are not entirely correct. Once I have said things it's too late to correct them so please check any 'so called facts' with an adult, google, wikipedia, or someone else that knows.
We run this channel to provide therapy for our gear addiction and for an excuse to buy more. Please like and subscribe and keep coming back to watch our films if you would like to support the channel!

I Bought An Expensive Epiphone At Hug...
Epiphone's questionable pricing strategy on some of its higher spec models seems to have backfired with prices now dropping and up to 40% discounts not uncommon. Now at just £799 this Shinichi Ubukata ES 355 was a steal so we bought it! 😁🎸👍
