Kramer Ferrington III. Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 Or so this Chinese eBayer claims. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7394990936&ru=http%3A%2F%2Fsearch.ebay.com%3A80%2F%2Fsearch%2Fsearch.dll%3Ffrom%3DR40%26satitle%3D7394990936%26fvi%3D1 This guy's pictures take a while to load up, but that's one gross guitar so it's worth the wait. If you are fonds of the Chinese culture, you can whack this beauty next to your priceless Ming vases. Is it really an Epiphone?

Caevan O’Shite Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 Well, that's reminiscent of an ESP body-style, and maybe a Schecter headstock... At the very least, it's a copy of an ESP, and not particularly "Chinese" at all... At the worst, it's possibly an out-and-out fraudulent claim. (ESP is a Japanese company, and I believe that they may have some guitar-building facility in the US, as well. Nothing "Chinese" about it!)

GuitarWolf Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 I dont think Epiphone ever made a guitar that looks like that. Isnt it just a crappy ESP knock-off? YtseJam your Majesty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmptinesOf Youth Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 Is this the same dude from before? like not too long ago? if so hes sold 173 things since then and his feedback is pretty good. Hey Brax if you want that guitar, the body is almost exactly the same as an esp model like mentioned above. http://img3.musiciansfriend.com/dbase/pics/products/0/3/4/273034.jpg i dont really like it but if your interested, that ones a little ove 700 but they got cheaper models at half that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MILLO Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 how the fuck is that a piece of Chinese "histrory"? Is it the ugliest, crappiest electric guitar ever made in China?

Scott Fraser Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 < No, it says "Feiyin" on the body & the headstock, although it may be built in the same factory that does the Chinese Epiphones. And it's Goth culture, not Chinese. Scott Fraser Scott Fraser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pappy P Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 No man. It is chinese culture.

I think the overall look would be improved by a roadkilled crow superglued to the body. And don't tell me that's not class. All those silly indie types just have these lameass stickers.
