I think I will try one, it is probably no good quality etc. but I `d like to try...maybe Thanks.
Furu Posted November 11, 2010 Report Posted November 11, 2010 Both Fender and Gibson have cheaper alternatives in Squire and Epiphone. I own both a Squire and an Epiphone as well as a top of the line Fender, among others The mid range guitars from Squire and Epiphone are very good for the price!
freddy333 Posted November 11, 2010 Report Posted November 11, 2010 I can 2nd the vote for Epiphone. Although I do not own 1, I have played a handful of them & they all sound/play noticeably better than any of the look-alike brands.
Ronin Posted November 11, 2010 Report Posted November 11, 2010 I had a "Penco" replica of a Rickenbacker 4001 back before I was able to afford the Gen Rickenbacker. However, Penco would be more for a 'vintage' used replica model. (mid to late 70's). They came from the Hoshino factory (aka Ibanez). In fact, my 'first franken' was taking the Penco and fitting it with Rickenbacker branding. Ahhh, the good old days.
sul Posted November 11, 2010 Author Report Posted November 11, 2010 thanks but I have two Ibanez (ARC 500NT and 12-string acoustic)in house, Epiphone is not needed probably, just thought that will try rep Fender( I will change almost all hardware probably) edit: 12.11 Ok I did find one site what is maybe ok: http://www.sbicu.com/0018guitar/ Only guestion is now buy or not to buy replika/fake Fender ( or Gibson) guitar?
El Fenix Posted November 16, 2010 Report Posted November 16, 2010 Try Agile guitars. I havent played one, but they are getting a following in the guitar community.
txcollector Posted November 16, 2010 Report Posted November 16, 2010 Only guestion is now buy or not to buy replika/fake Fender ( or Gibson) guitar? considering you will need to replace pick-ups, electronics, bridge and tuning keys plus get a better neck I don't see the point really. Grab a used Fender or the mexican one. It would be cheaper.
