Members MaxVolume Posted September 22, 2013 Members Share Posted September 22, 2013 OK, so I stumbled across this CL ad for a "CYI" guitar. Obviously, the guy has no idea what he's got. I can tell that it's an Epiphone, but the "phone" part has been cut off. I don't know much about these, but I'm tempted to snag this thing up. Anyone have any info on how much they're worth, if they're worth playing, etc...? Thanks.

Members IbanezLF7please Posted September 22, 2013 Members Share Posted September 22, 2013 The "phone" wasn't scratched off - "Epi" was the bottom level of Epiphone's 1990s Strat copies. $30 is perfectly within reason. http://epiphonewiki.com/index.php/Epi-Series Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Roy Brooks Posted September 22, 2013 Members Share Posted September 22, 2013 The best Epiphone Stratocaster copies had a hockey stick headstock with Epiphone spelled out. Those can still be found cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FWIW, I have an "Epi" A-10 acoustic that I originally bought for our daughter. Cost me $46 on eBay. With a little TLC it's not a bad little guitar. This one is easily worth $30.

Members kayd_mon Posted September 22, 2013 Members Share Posted September 22, 2013 The guitar costs less than a date night. Get it for the fun of fixing it up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kayd_mon Posted September 22, 2013 Members Share Posted September 22, 2013 Oh, and yes - those were the "department store" Epiphones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MaxVolume Posted September 22, 2013 Author Members Share Posted September 22, 2013 Thanks for all the info, guys. I offered the guy 20 and he said he'd take it. Just waiting on the e-mail to see where we can meet up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
