How do you pronounce Epifani?

I would assume it's option #1 and a take on the word epiphany:
e·piph·a·ny /i-PIF-uh-ni/ –noun, plural -nies. 1. (initial capital letter) a Christian festival, observed on January 6, commemorating the manifestation of Christ to the gentiles in the persons of the Magi; Twelfth-day.
2. an appearance or manifestation, esp. of a deity.
3. a sudden, intuitive perception of or insight into the reality or essential meaning of something, usually initiated by some simple, homely, or commonplace occurrence or experience.
4. a literary work or section of a work presenting, usually symbolically, such a moment of revelation and insight.

Nope, it is not pronounced like the word epiphany. Call the shop, the first thing they will do is anwer the phone "Epifani..." and you will hear exactly how they say it.
Well, that is a big let down.
I agree. What in the world is an Epifani in the first place?
For heaven's sake, can't anybody spell round here?
It's Epiphone!
I thought that was always
Eh-pi-phone
I thought that it was his last name, but also a play on words. Ephiphany in the sense of #3 on above definition.

It isn't??? My world has been turned upside down!
JK, I know it is pronounced with a strong G.
Wow. I really did think it was a clever spelling of "epiphany," which is a great word.
