Hey Guys,

Just got my nice new red Model 1!

I am blown away at the quality and sound.  I love the versatility and how everything is right there at your fingertips.  Best of all, the guitar feels solid and the neck plays really, really well.  Right out of the box and with a quick tuning I was jamming away.  I think my favorite Telecaster will stay in it's case for a long time.

I wish you guys all the success.  This is definitely not a toy but it sure is fun as hell!

Cheers,

Marc Wester

I am speechless. I own 13 guitars. One of which is a 30th Anniversary Fender Custom Shop Spalted Maple Strat which costs 3 times as much. I just want to say that Fender has NOTHING on you guys. From the fit, the finish, the action and the presentation. It’s over the top. 

Simply put, I am blown away. 

Please thank all that made this possible. 

Now I wait. 8 miserable hours of pure hell before I fire this puppy up. 🔥🎸🔥

Take care,

Rob Bello

I made the big jump and ordered one of these not knowing what to expect.  Let me say I have been playing guitar for over 50 years and I have owned Gibsons, Fenders, Yamahas, Washburns, and many more, but this guitar blows them all away.  Very high quality materials went into build.  I am very satisfied.   Now you need to make an acoustic with built in amp and effects.   Thank you Jan and Andy for  great customer service.  I know I had a ton of questions before I ordered and you covered all of them.  This will be the only guitar I will ever need which will save me a ton of money.

Hello there,

Just to let you know the Model One arrived safe and sound.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

I'm an intermediate player and I am completely in love with this instrument.

The sound quality, guitar quality and ease of play are great and of course so is the build-in amp.

It took me about 20 minutes to figure out how to configure the sounds I wanted to get, from warm tones to shredding, so I would say it is user friendly.

I can finally do what I always wanted to do, which is just pick up the guitar, sit anywhere inside or outside and do my thing.

This will help me develop a lot as a guitarist. Just the convenience without having to sacrifice sound quality. I really motivates me to play more.

It radiates unique and cool. Playing it feels like playing a musical muscle car.

The shipping and import costs were rather huge though compared to the price of the guitar itself : totalled to about $500 - so about 50%. (Belgium)

However it did arrive safe and sound. Sadly I don't think you have the choice to make that cheaper.

It took 6 months to deliver which is rather long, but given the artisan ship and the size of EP it's understandable. I'd happily wait again and have this craft quality.

I initially made the purchase as a gift for someone, but since the delivery took about 3 months more than we initially thought I bought that person another guitar.

(a solution with a portable speaker)

And honestly after having looked at multiples youtube videos featuring the guitar I may have wanted it for myself. (guilty)

The wait was long, but it was well worth it. This will be my main guitar for the foreseeable future.

And if a Model Two sees the light, I'll definitely order one.

​

This freakin guitar is amazing - surpasses my expectations; well beyond.  It came set up very well also.

​

I charged the batteries overnight as recommended.   I cannot believe how loud it can get - the neck fits my small hand to a tee.  It boggles the mind....

​

Awesome job to your team!  This is the Best Guitar out of the package I have ever bought... and I have 20!   It's hard to get an A+ but you are getting one.  

​

​

Thanks for the Awesome Creation!

I absolutely love my Model One. Since receiving it about 3 weeks ago I have been on it non-stop. I have fine tuned the chorus and delay to a dreamy perfection that blows my mind. My hats off to Jan, Joe, Andy, and the rest of the team. The are creating something truly unique.
If you have been waiting just be patient it will come. ...

Very impressive guitar.  You're really on to something here.  My ears dislike digital and the sound is both analog and great.... 

​

I wanted to share my experience with your wonderful guitar.  It is much more and better than a travel guitar. It is a real guitar for real players.

One of the best guitars I’ve played. People who still don’t have theirs yet. Just wait a little longer, it’s everything you’ve waited for😍

​

​

Andrew the pay off is immense. To say this is the best guitar I’ve played is an understatement. Even louder than I hoped. This is everything I’ve waited two years for!!!!!

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK BOTH MAKING THE GUITAR AND FINALLY TRYING TO GET IT TO ME!!!   

I received my guitar last Friday and am in love with it.   It is a sexy  beast.

​

Thanks,

Yvonne

“The guitar is magnificent. Everything from the finish to the fretwork to the set up is first rate. It has excellent playability. The controls are well thought out and well located. The neck has a great feel and is neither too wide nor too narrow. The tuners feel solid and it tunes up easily.  Given all the equipment that is jammed into it, I would have expected it to be heavier but remarkably, the weight is comparable to many of my solid body guitars.”

EP Staff,
I know I called saying it wasn’t turning on (there was a switch, duh), but this guitar is literally perfect for my needs.
It sounds beautiful, it turns heads, it’s super fun to pick up and play, and because of that, I’m actually having fun practicing.
Seriously, I can’t give this project enough praise, so I’m going to give you my business — you have a customer for life. As soon as more dollars come in, I’m getting some backups.
Incredible, incredible guitar. Thank you.

THANKS-THE GUITAR IS WONDERFUL!!!!

Here'a my new Electrophonic's Model One guitar, a self amplified guitar providing more than 18 watts through 2 speakers. So many great features with this guitar such as delay and chorus effect plus amp simulators. Powered with 4 long lasting rechargeable batteries. Another great feature is that i can connect a bluetooth in the connector made for that and play my tracks via an iPad, iPhone or other. In this song here, the Model One is the only source of sound. Sorry, i didn't take time to work a great solo, just wanted to show you this marvel. Go to the website of Electrophonic Innovation at: http://electrophonicinnovations.com Take note that i don't work for them, just love that guitar. The guys at Electrophonic's are just great and passioned people giving all the correct infos. After sale service is also fantastic; i had a problem with mine, we had a FaceTime meeting, got the guitar sent, got it back not long after. Problem was solved! (California USA to Quebec, Canada). Thank's to Joe, Jan and mostly Andy with whom i've been mostly in contact with. Wish you guys a hughe sucess for 2019 as this product deserve it!

Received my red Model One a month ago, days before we moved 800 miles. It was just about the first thing I unpacked when we arrived, and I have not gone a day without playing it since. It was 100% worth the wait and I encourage all early buyers to be patient if you haven't received yours yet. You will not be disappointed! I'm attaching a quick jam from this morning just showing a bit of this new friend's range, with same basic notes but totally different feel, from echo-y blues to much heavier vibes. The controls are easy to master and the fretboard is a breeze. The fun of just being able to sit out on the porch without an amp and get this sound fulfills the promise of the original premise.

And it's damn pretty, too. EP, you done good!

My new EP Model One arrived today & I can't put her down! No longer tethered to an amp, electric sounds can be created anywhere. The amp system, effects and speakers are all built into the body. Thanks to Jan Lucas, Andy Block, and all the craftsmen at ElectroPhonic Innovations for staying true to their dream and producing a state of the art guitar. Keep on Rocking'

“I was skeptical, then I played it.  Truly amazing.”

“These guys are on to something special. That’s why I joined them to head up the electronics design. It feels like the early days at Kurzweil.”

I’m having so much fun playing the EP guitars.  Watching them take each new guitar and make the next one even better, has been great to watch.  I hope that everyone sees the great promise and sound that these guys are creating.

The quality is great. The guitar, the effects, the sound. It's actually more than you'd think. I thought gimmicky, too, but it's more than that. It's becoming a tool for me. I learn a lot of material to play with different bands and it' pretty great to just pick this thing up and play without my whole rig. There are sound sounds that I get with it that I hope I can get with my live set up. Plus, I can plug it into my amp and use it with my pedalboard and amp and use it's effects if I want to as well. We shall see.

“I’ve been spending a lot of time with the EP guys watching them evolve their guitars, and playing their various prototypes.  The ElectroPhonic Guitar is a blast to play!”

“It’s the guitar I’ve dreamed of since I was in my teens.   Did you read my f___ing mind?”

I used my new, very fancy, awesome sounding Model one on the track. The engineer told me it was a great sounding acoustic guitar. Ha!

Love this guitar!!!
