Epiphone

a korean imitation guitar.

a prop that you'll see guys like Slash hold in an advertisement but never within 800 feet of him on stage.

a suitable instrument for guys taking a break from the clarinet.

"oh my shit, i thought you told me good charlotte was good..?..?"

"shut up dude, they are like the best band since like, smashing pumpkins or ah-ha"

"the fuck they are, the guitar tone sounds like a korean whore shitting out a miniature chainsaw.... not to mention, they're all playing goofy things that have les paul or sg bodies but silly little head-stocks that are meant to look like flattened out gay penises."

"those are epiphones and they rock way super hard"

Epiphony

When you make an often-times vague or clichéd client that seems deep on the outside, but offers little intellectual or philosophical use. A portmanteau on the words "phony" and "epiphany."

Jake totally had an epiphony linking consciousness and reality, but he then realized it works only in limited situations.

epiphony

Variation on "epiphany." A sudden manifestation of the essence or meaning of something as a result of listening to a particular song. Often, the more obsure the lyrics or music is, the deeper the resulting epiphonistic experience.

"Dude, I had a total epiphony about my relationship with Riama after listening to that Radiohead song."

**alternatively**

"The Broun Fellini's show was a really amazing epiphonistic experience. I'm a changed person after hearing Black Edgar on the saxophone."
