It's always been an entry level brand for young people to dip their toes. Kids care about style more than adults do. 1300 is just inflation prices. Is it a 'good deal'? No. But it's their parents money most of the time anyway. If it were 999 you'd think it was a steal. The market has moved.

Brother, I have to disagree. $1,300 is not an entry level price for any guitar even in 2025.

There are nice squiers for 1/4 that price. Hell you can get an American made fender for around that price. There are pro quality basses half that price from Sire and Ibanez.

This is just a money grab.

who are they grabbing money from? young people who want to be like early Green Day? Old people with real jobs and money who are just huge Green Day fans and want to add to the collection?

i think my issue is the combination of Epiphone, china made and $1,300.

If you want to make an entry level instrument accessible to kids and beginners, that's great. But it should cost no more than $500.
