It turns out that Fender Custom Shop bodies are, indeed, fashioned on a CNC machine. I'd imagine that is pretty much the norm for most guitars outside of high-end Fender.Custom Shop offerings I've seen the same poor set-ups on lower end MIM Fender's, Squiers, PRS SE models and even the mighty Gibson.Īpologies for this being a little off topic. It can be done though, because the Indonesian made Epi Wilshire I bought was almost perfectly set-up. Had the Epi been better set-up I would have gone with that despite the higher price. I went with the Vintage because it was £100.00 cheaper.

I don't buy enough guitars to warrant buying set-up tools at the price they sell for in the UK, neither do I really have the time to learn how to do it. The biggest factor was that they both REALLY NEEDED a decent set up and that represents an extra cost (to me) of about £50.00. Both had plusses or minuses but there was not a huge deal of difference between them regarding general construction, cosmetics or sound. I had the choice of an Epi or a brand called Vintage (in the UK). Recently I was looking for a LP type guitar. I wonder how many Epiphones, as recieved from the overseas factories, can't actually be "set up" properly.Īctually, set-up is the bane of my life, not just Epiphones but the majority of guitars I try. How about the inspectors and USA set up persons. I do love my Epiphones, keep it up inspector #7.

I wonder what happens to those guitars (if any), and if so, how does the USA set up and inspection person "get back" to the manufacturer, that there was an problem or anomaly. I wonder how many Epiphones, as recieved from the overseas factories, can't actually be "set up" properly. I wonder if Epiphone would ever "profile" their employees ? I think it would be interesting to know a little about the persons that make the guitars we all love (and hate), their luthier skills, if they own and play a guitar or 2 they or their friends might have built (can a person making an Epiphone guitar in China afford said Epiphone if they were inclined to obtain a guitar ) ? Just thinking out loud. I often wondered to myself "who made this guitar" ? That "someone" is a person who obviously cares a great deal that their work was top notch. I see my Epiphone guitars have been made in Korea, China and Indonesia.
