I'd prefer an epiphone rather than Gibson, LTD rather than ESP and yeah, I don't really see a difference between the two companies other than like a couple better specs and higher price. The only company I wouldn't do that with is Fender, Squires are crap, unless it's some signature guitar, those are alright.

  • @joeburch2637
    @joeburch2637 Před 8 lety +5

    Let's be real guys. I think he chose the epiphone, not because it's the game's sponsor, but because epiphone is a beginner-intermediate player's budget guitar. It's just a downgrade from the gibson les paul, and if anything, it easily plays better than most beginner strats (the ones that cost $200 that the guy at guitar center is trying to get rid of) and why should it matter? Most of us fools here think we're the next Dire Straits or Metallica, but your most likely some 20-30 year old who spent too much time playing guitar in his mom's basement during high school. I'm not the greatest guitarist in the world people, but all I'm saying is why does that give you the right to bombard this guy with hate? - Seriously, Alex shreds.

    All those songs are on Rocksmith? It looks like a worthy buy now, unlike when I looked on the back of the video game it just looked like a boring classic rock to borderline pop rock. Granted, it cannot show every band and song on the back. I'll look into this game a bit more.

      @Harmonic14 Před 10 lety +9

      You obviously don't know your guitars if you can't differentiate a Gibson headstock from an Epiphone one. A Gibson has the two sharp corners with the two bumps in the middle with a triangular divot in the middle. The Epiphone one has this same basic shape but the corners are rounded off into a concave shape. Look at his Epiphone, no corners. Look at the Les Pauls on the wall, they have corners. Those are GIBSON Les Pauls because the headstock is a GIBSON shape.
