[DarrellBraunGuitar]

Merry Christmas Everyone!!
MIJ Guitars FTW :)

I feel like I should take the “if a guitar falls into your lap you buy it” as life advice.

[frankiebones]

Don’t make promises you can’t keep. I said I wasn’t buying another guitar this year, two are coming in the mail this week.

[nathanglass]

Its technically not a Gibson so you're still good on your word.

[shauncarter]

“What do you do when a sweet black and gold Les Paul Custom falls into your lap?”....said every middle aged guy going through a divorce ever LOL

[youssefkasim]

Japan just makes some of the best guitars out there.

As soon as I saw the rosewood fretboard I knew there was some trickery afoot. Pleasantly surprised to see some Elitist love. They haven't been given much attention by the big guitar youtubers yet.

[tamirkeren]

I can't believe how good the cleans sound on this guitar. clear crisp and yet full sounding. Congrats

[heavybrett-al]

Wow that's soooo sweet for an Epiphone, love the interior of that case also.

[misterwhite]

The last new guitar I bought was in January 1996. This year I finally bought another new guitar after 24 years. I bought a 2020 Epiphone Les Paul Custom in black. With the ebony fretboard, I had to get it. It is one of the nicest guitars I've ever owned. I really enjoyed this video. Thanks.

Wow the pups sound awesome! Beautiful Black and Gold Epi, well done finding that! Merry Christmas Darrell!

[Jonwsm]

The rosewood gave it away immediately. A Custom has ebony.

[poundtacos]

Never say never! Once you bond with an instrument, the name attached dont mean squat.

[norm]

Great find. Love the black with the double binding.

[chollman]

Beautiful guitar and amazing playing Darrell! Merry Christmas!

The elite epiphones, are great guitars, made with high quality. I’ve had a elite Casino for about 20 years, back in the 80s I had a 67 es 330, but traded it for another guitar, always regretted that. So when I saw the casino elite at Guitar Center and tried it, it sounded and felt like my old Gibson, I grabbed it, and it’s been a great guitar, I would never sell it, I’ve got a few real nice guitars, but I always seem to grab my Epiphone!

It actually sounds really great. Pickups are clear and snappy without being harsh, and nice and full without being mush.

[outandaboutinoz]

Merry Christmas Darrell. I have loved you channel. All three of my sons now have subscribed to your channel now. All the very best Greg

[StephenOshea]

sounds good hope the price was sweet . sadly i think japan doesn't age the timbers for theri guitars

[maekong]

Great video, great breakdown. When you paired the LP with the Telecaster, at the end, I almost wet myself. That is simply more guitar than any one person should ever be allowed to own. Except me, of course. Two amazing scores. Merry Xmas.
