We love to compare guitars and prices but the truth is between build quality and components sometimes the differences are minimal. Sometimes, however, there is a world of difference in the details. It can be difficult to truly make a clear case of which is better but in this video we do our best to explain why one of these guitars costs 6x more than the other. Being compared are an Epiphone, Inspired by Gibson 1959 Les Paul that was designed in collaboration with the Gibson Custom Shop. The other guitar is from the shop within the custom shop - the Gibson Murphy Lab Light Aged 1958 Les Paul Reissue. Is the Murphy Lab magic worth the additional cost?
