Epiphone Wilshire anyone play this?

Post by phantasmagorovich »

I played this yesterday in a store.

Didn't plug it in though, but played without amplification it had a nice sound, which is a good sign, especially for such a cheap instrument. I liked the neck too.

Anyone ever used this amplified and with loads of Fuzz?

i used to find the originals from the 60s in pawn shops and music stores for like $75........they were awesome little slabs of rock n roll.

i tried the new reissues, they aren't half bad!

That's funny - a friend of mine is all :love: about her too.

Yes. The guitar does that job pretty well.

I wish there were pawn shops in Germany.
