Epiphone has recently introduced signature models for Matt Heafy, Richie Faulkner, Bjorn Gelotte, and Joe Bonamassa.
Epiphone`s primary format for introduction of new models has become the limited edition. While it hadn`t worked out for other major brands in the past, this system seems that it`s the right thing for Epiphone. This format is especially dominant in signature artist range, where it claims almost all new models. Out of five signatures reviewed in this article, all five are limited edition models, with no exception. All will feature price tags set around the $1,000 mark, which puts them in the same league with LTD`s 600 and Jackson Pro Series signatures. The names of the models are: Limited Edition Matt Heafy Snofall Les Paul Custom-7 Outfit, Limited Edition Matt Heafy Snofall Les Paul Custom Outfit, Limited Edition Bjorn Gelotte Jotun Les Paul Custom Outfit, Limited Edition Richie Faulkner Flying-V Custom Outfit, and Limited Edition Joe Bonamassa 1958 Amos Korina Flying-V Outfit.
Epiphone Limited Edition Matt Heafy Snofall Les Paul Custom-7 Outfit offers seven-string construction, Epiphone LP Custom build quality, active EMG pickups, standard 24-3/4" scale, and Alpine White livery.
