One of the few modern artist that truly does deserve a signature instrument!

@budgetguitarist 7 лет назад

James Bay is a talented kid who is doing his own thing - the world of music needs more people like him! Neat guitar. How cool is it to have your own signature guitar? Too cool. I kinda like the fact that it's an Epi and not a Gibson - his original 66 was an Epi. You don't need a custom shop Gibson to succeed - you just need tons of talent, like James has.

@budgetguitarist 7 лет назад

He does play Gibsons also.

@jozefka1019 7 лет назад

yes i am glad that he is not like kind of selfish since he got a lof of fame i like that he didn't change at all he stayed the same which is BEST

@lauriedepaurie 7 лет назад

budgetguitarist.com You know Epi's from the 60's are very similar to (sometimes better than) Gibson and the value is fairly similar too right? Epi's as an Asian-made lower spec Gibson is a fairly recent thing.

@zachgerken6044 7 лет назад

Where can I get one of these

@ddbrock2746 7 лет назад

I have no idea who this kid is, but his excitement is infectious, and that is one really cool guitar.

@buddyollie180 7 лет назад

DD Brock2 Check him out. He's pretty cool!

@DelScully 7 лет назад

He seems like such a great dude

@wooddog3000 7 лет назад

It is cool of James Bay to do these videos. He seems very generous and grateful for the experience. Thumbs up!

@squidy2343 6 лет назад

His excitement and passion for the guitar is always fun to watch. :)

@rhyswearne9308 6 лет назад

This guy has inspired me to play the guitar. I've just booked my first lesson, and I can't wait. Thanks James ✌🏼

@stuartfoster8866 6 лет назад

Ended up picking this model up too and WOW. One of the best Epiphone guitars to date . More versatile than one might expect. I love having both versions. The neck on this model is definitely more of a slim profile but extraordinarily comfortable and super easy on the hand. Can't say enough good things about this guitar. A real treat when you open up the case.

@mcdee56 7 лет назад

Cool! I have owned a 1966 Epiphone Sorrento for 51 years. It's the only axe that I have retained despite having fenders, gibsons, and more. People don't realize that 60's Epiphones were made right in the old Gibson factory in Kalamazoo, Michigan. So you get vintage american quality at very reasonable prices. I also find the epiphone necks to be more comfortable for me.

@mehdicheikh6934 7 лет назад

I just bought one and I must say I looove it ! Really nice to play. An acoustic with B...s, I was after that kind of guitar for a long time. Good job Epiphone !

@pianomelody9072 7 лет назад

Mehdi Acoustic Jam how much did it cost you??

@RoseveltEnt 7 лет назад

I hope you didn't pay too much. You do know this is a £400 model Epiphone already make that wasn't selling so they added the James Bay name to it and included it with a case in the Masterbuilt line? Their marketing works on some people!

@TheGalwayFarmer 7 лет назад

i'm not sure, he said in an interview that he was in talks with Epi around the time that the 400 quid model came out

@BicycleJoeTomasello 7 лет назад

This isn't a masterbilt or an acoustic but a hollow body semi arched toped electric P90 thin line guitar.

@slimturnpike 6 лет назад

There are several differences, the main one (and most costly one) being that it uses a Kinman noiseless P90.

@sn95_mustang_garage 7 лет назад

Saw James on 9/21/16 at the Fillmore in Miami, have him doing "Let It Go" live on my RU-vid Channel...the solo he does in the beginning is incredible of that song. My son is such a fan that he bought 1963 Gibson which is almost identical to the Epi 1966 but Gibson's version. Now he wants this James sig guitar.

@09godofwar 7 лет назад

I bought a 1966 Century inspired for my birthday. can I trade that in for the signature model lols. Man I wish I waited. Big fan of James Bay

@TheGalwayFarmer 7 лет назад

i feel your pain. If you have seen his interview with Lee Anderton ages ago he mentioned that they'd been to measure his guitar and were 'in talks'...

@Shuteyetn 7 лет назад

Hype for his new album

@stuartfoster8866 6 лет назад

This is one of my favorite models to date . I don't own the Bay signature but do own the 66 reissue as I just prefer the satin finish feel. It is far more versatile than I expected with excellent build quality. Honestly one of the better reissues to date from Epiphone and very true to an original 66 at an affordable price. I will definitely invest in a case due to the high quality of this instrument. Anyone on the fence on buying either this or the 66 reissue will be pleasantly surprised by it I believe. I know the Bay signature is super limited I think with only roughly around 600 or so.

@ac9110 6 лет назад

Have you got the dark red one Stuart? Is that a satin finish too?

@garinakbar1907 5 лет назад

It particularly rare electric guitar, most hollow guitar had one cutaway like P90 or Les Paul, but this is good design with no cutaway, I had one its a black

@Thegeordiemusician Год назад

Wish I could find one of these to purchase

@darrelpennington3489 7 лет назад

Gibson , Epiphone ; Beauty & The Beast , Same tone , Same Playability , I feel the Value $ , Is in feel and Sound ! Not Maple flame , or Veneer . I Have Played Epiphone , For years , and Will Continue , You can rebuild a 911 Porsche with VW parts , Cool !

@jumpnblues 7 лет назад

I thought I heard some 60 cycle hum when he removed his fingers from the strings? Maybe he's using a different PU from the Kinman noiseless P-90s? Cool guitar though. I'm a huge P-90 fan too. Bet it would be a sweet blues guitar.

@DogbarkMusic 6 лет назад

My 8 month old Ep1phone Century 1966 plays an sounds great lots of good sound come out. My only problem is I have a really loud 60 cycle hum on stage. In the exact same spot with the same pedals my Epiphone Dot335 and Gibson Les Paul Studio are quite (no hum). I am standing about 20 foot from a wireless mike receiver rack but again my other two guitars with the same set-up do no have the hum. Are there any filter circuits I can add, is the P90 possibly defective?

@ballonskipper155 7 лет назад

Is that the "Berwick hat" from "tiger of sweden"?

@glover403 7 лет назад

This Signature version has a better nut and nicer colour and finish. But they have dropped the 12's with wound third. for standard 10's? i like that on the first reissue but played in store but didnt buy. will have to check this out again waiting on stock :-?

@wstevejoyner6704 6 лет назад

What strings do you use. Acoustic with wound G or electric?

@danhill3302 7 лет назад

So it always sounds fuzzy? Like that's fine I guess but people are doing to want it to be a little cleaner to start off I think

@neonpicturesmusic8597 7 лет назад

Schmo Joe with p90s when you turn down the volume to around 6 the guitar gets a compressed tone, if you have volume and tone all the way up, it has an incredible clean and clear tone

@jjccllgg 7 лет назад

I own an Epi century "inspired by 1966" arch top. What is the difference with the James Bay version?

@jakmontague1753 7 лет назад

Juan Carlos Lopez The pickup in the James Bay model is a branded noiseless one, the James Bay guitar has a gloss finish as opposed to the satin finish of the Inspired By and since it's a limited run and it's a tad more expensive, I do reckon a bit more TLC would go into making the James Bay guitars. I love the Inspired By though, I just bought one too and I struggle to put it down!

@ac9110 6 лет назад

Jak Montague me too Jak, the strings were a little high and I've fitted a bone nut but the Century's a fantastic instrument and well happy with my sunburst one.

@1Guitar1joe1 7 лет назад

Wait so are these out yet?

@BicycleJoeTomasello 7 лет назад

Been available without the sig for a year

@neonpicturesmusic8597 7 лет назад

Signature has officially come out

@joshjackson9199 6 лет назад

If you like James Bay, listen to Joe Jenneman!

@oho7873 7 лет назад

This is not the version out for sale tho is it? Is this version finished in nitrocellulose or thick polyurethane? Played one the other day, nothing like an original. Finding it hard to believe that you are not using this to boost sales to something you are making with more intention to sell instrument with cuts to the sound where its too expensive to make a full reproduction. Albeit a budget brand

@TheGalwayFarmer 7 лет назад

This has been in the pipeline for ages. They released the cheapo version knowing that anyone who bought will want this one too. Probably gonna be twice the price

@nathanevans2755 6 лет назад

Sweet guitar rather get a casino for the money though.

@thomka4576 5 лет назад

Despite the Kinman pickup there is a lot of hum :-(

@BicycleJoeTomasello 7 лет назад

I wish you guys would get some players suited to the tools you make. Especially your Masterbilt Arch Top's , these players seem as if they never played an f holed arch top guitar before. Get someone to put some steel on them strings too.

@jnapier99 7 лет назад

I'm sure the one they handed him is near perfect in fit and finish but after going through 3 Gary Clark Casinos and sending them all back due to the abysmal fit and finish I'm of the opinion that Epiphone is putting out pure junk for the general public to buy. And after writing customer service and getting no response I'm equally convinced they don't care...

7 лет назад

what a load of rubbish , Epi's are great guitars.. do u work at Gibson? ..I've bought Gibsons that was impossible to set up properly ... a CS R7 that would never pass the final inspection in any Epi factory..Gibson are very overprised for the quality u get..just check out a PRS in the same 3000$ bracket..thats good quality.. at the moment Gibson is surviving mainly cause of the very high sales of Epis..without Epi they would be gone

@chrisjs6123 6 лет назад

I have one of these and it’s pretty much flawless. I have several custom shop guitars worth many multiples of the 1966 and whilst they are better, the epi is still really good.
