  • In this video, I go head to head with my two vintage Epiphone Howard Roberts Archtops. The black one is a 1966 and the sunburst model is from 1968. Both of the guitars sound awesome and even though they are the same guitar, they both produce very different sounds. They have some very different characteristics. I am not sure which one I like better. I believe the black paint on the 1966 model impacts the sound tremendously. You can really hear it when you tap on the top of both guitars. Anyway, let me know which one you like best! Please leave me a comment and thanks for watching!
    Also, I have hundreds of other lessons for guitar players who like Jazz, Blues, Bebop, and Fingerstyle guitar arrangements. There are also a lot of lessons on guitar technique and guitar scales along with exercises meant to build your chops. Check them all out here: guitarcollegel...

    As someone waiting on a 70s Ibanez Howard Roberts to show up, your content has been a goldmine for my anticipation.

    Also black version has a warmer more jazzy hallow body sound that I like

    I had the opportunity to play a new Gibson Howard Roberts, cherry finish, at a guitar store in my area around 1996 (or so). I believe the asking price was around $1200, a discounted price. It didn't fit my style of rhythm playing so I wasn't interested. Still a nice memory.

    Only 56 of the Epiphone customs were made. I sold a sunburst standard to Madelyn Roberts. Jay now has it.

    Absolutely beautiful fingerstyle playing! Does perfect justice to these instruments. The sunburst one seems warmer to my ears; not sure if the wood bridge vs. the Tune-o-matic on the black one has anything to do with it.

    I would love to have a Howard Roberts in the stable...if only budget permitted!

    The sunburst one just has the MOJO...It just has that warmer,just lovely attack that some guitars just have?

    Some of the Howard Robert’s have a 3 knob control set up. And some of the Ibanez copies have full sized HBs I believe. Comments? Shal

    Mahogany makes a great guitar. My L4 is such. Great smooth tone. What kind of feedback issues does it have? Love Nearness. Great tune. Our singer does a killer version. Shal

    Number 1 may have the edge. 2 is still nice, though.

    Black version is a better one than the sunburst
