Gibson epiphone acoustic guitar?




Will


is it a good acoustic guitar?


Answer
Not much to add to Average Mike's answer. Epiphone is the asian made cousin of Gibson but is not a Gibson guitar. Gibson guitars are very good quality (although somewhat overpriced). Epiphones are an average asian made guitar. They're playable and look nice and are a pretty decent value but are not going to compare well to a Martin, Taylor, or Gibson guitar. If you're on a budget though, they're worth trying out. Play the one you plan to buy though because there are dramatic differences from one guitar to another even in the same brand and model, especially with the cheaper ones where quality control is not as high.

Answer
The cheapest Gibson acoustic is just under $1000:

...and they go up to almost $10,000:

Musiciansfriend.com has a good selection here:

But why on earth do you want one? Gibson makes fairly pedestrian acoustic guitars. Not only are Taylor and Martin better, but they're not in the same league as the really good acoustics like Santa Cruz, Collings, Goodall, Froggy Bottom, Huss and Dalton, Breedlove, Lowden, and others. I urge you to try a bunch of guitars from different brands before you decide.
