Default Epiphone - Hummingbird Pro vs inspired by Gibson Hummingbird

Hello Forum, how is it going?


I own a very beautiful and pleasant Epiphone Hummingbird Pro since 2013. I've seen many comparisons of this guitar with his rich cousin Gibson Hummingbird. Of course, the Epi birdy it's not a match for it's solid counterpart.

I just learned recently that there is an "enhanced" version of this guitar, the "Epiphone inspired by Gibson Hummingbird", which looks nicer, has all solid woods and apparently sounds nicer.

I've seen only comparisons between Epiphones and Gibsons, so my question is that anyone here has the 2 versions of the Epiphone to compare them to each other? Old Hummingbird Pro vs new inspire by Gibson Hummingbird.

Thanks!

Webert

The Epiphone Inspired by Gibson, looks like a Gibson, and it’s great sounding guitar. It even plays great. but it will not sound like a Gibson.
I’m thinking about getting the Epiphone Inspired by Gibson J-200
I own a DR500MCE Masterbilt and it’s an amazing guitar.
