Yeah im sure it sounds just wonderful , i wouldn't know , but i have a big problem with those headstocks that are formed that way , i like the more clean headstock like , the Chet Atkins , Taylors , Martins , and so on , i hate ugly headstocks :lol:

I have a Epiphone/Gibson Chet...I've never played the true Gibson Chet but the Epiphone sounds awesome...crystal clear tone, no feedback. If the Gibson is a lot better than the Epiphone I can't even imagine how it sounds.

i think they only made a few of the white ones...they gave one to some spanish artist, so I bet they cost ALOT of dough.

I've played both Epiphone and Gibson chets and while I would be content in owning either one of them, Gibson's chet voice has a bit more of style in it. My mind might be playing tricks on me, but i thought that the Gibson was a little smoother than the Epiphone and had a sweeter voice, rather than the straight forward "im gonna blast you cause im an Epiphone" voice. Its all about your preference.

PS. bah, fuck Epiphone, get a Gibson :P
