Epiphone Elitist vs. GCG vs. Gretsch 1959

All,

I have followed the discussion on the differences between the Gibson Country Gentleman and the Gretsch G6122-1959 model. My question is: how does the Epiphone Elitist Chet Atkins model compare to each of these? I do not own one, but from what I have read they were made by Terada in Japan with similar appointments, etc.

I welcome all of your comments.

Thanks,

Steve

I wish I had some input, but I'm not familiar with the Epiphone. I know some of the Epiphone's have USA made components. If I'm not mistaken the John Lennon Casino model has US made P-90's.
