My brother's just ordered a 2024 Epiphone Firebird guitar. Reduced to £799, the 2025 one has a vibrola and 2 mini humbuckers and is £1,600. Both pretty accurate 1960s spec down to the Gibson humbuckers, through (not set) neck and Kluson banjo tuners. Hard cases included. Epiphone is making some serious instruments these years.

Keep on Running by the Spencer Davis Group. Some simplified tabs out there, but the accurate line is full of changing rhythm patterns.

Very marmite. I like that style, also Sire, Kay(!), Lakland, Lull, Harley Benton and Musicman amongst others with varying degrees of 'hook' and 'belly'.

My thought was that it would be a great bass to drop an unusual pickup in. A shame it's short scale.

Their guild-style semi is really nice looking.

I used a 16" skin for a 10" ring, it was only a couple of quid extra. Made it easy to pull tight. Got it way tighter than the old banjo mandolin I did about 40 years ago!
