The Epiphone Elitist are a range of guitars that attempt to bridge the gap between their more expensive Gibson counterparts and the standard Epiphone range. They Endeavour to do this by using select tone woods, top-end components and details that are more at home on more-expensive guitars.
These were made to very high specifications in Japan but some parts are made in other countries, including the USA and Germany. These guitars cost more than twice as much as Standard Epiphone guitars. Standard Epiphone and Gibson guitars have an open-book headstock, but Elitist models have a more curved style dating back to the Epiphone Masterbilt series of guitars. The Elitist series was discontinued in 2008.
