Beautiful guitar. Just makes me sick that Epiphone, the supposed "off-brand" of Gibson, charges $900 for a guitar...

I seriously dont understand why Gibson doesnt buy a factory somewhere in asia and build Gibson branded guitars there, Fender does it and so could they.

It is a puzzle isn't it? Now Gibson owns a factory in China and has full control over the output, why not? The price of a new Epi here is getting very close to the price of a used Gibson Studio.
