performance is our passion
In 1957 Epiphone was sold to
Gibson, Inc. Gibson was initially
interested in the big "doghouse"
bass line, which Gibson presi-
dent, Ted McCarty thought was
an excellent bass. But he got
the whole thing for $20,000.
with the stipulation that a
portrait of "Epi" be hung
wherever Epiphone guitars were
made. It still hangs, side by
side, with the portrait of
Orville Gibson at Gibson
headquarters today.
Epiphone employees "
celebrated" the sale to Gibson
with a bonfire of Epiphone guitar
parts, according to this 1958
internal memo from Gibson
Sales Rep Howard Kelley.
The memo begins, "Now I've
heard everything.
