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