Epiphone DR-100 Dreadnought - Vintage Sunburst Review

Impressive Sound and Quality Build

I bought this guitar because I wanted to be able to play songs that sound better on acoustic. At first, I was dissatisfied with it because the guitar itself felt light and hollow. However, this is because I've only been playing a solid-body electric. Once I began playing it over a few days my whole opinion changed and now I love it. I love the tone because it is perfect for the… read more soft rock songs that I want to play. One last thought is that I couldn't tune it properly with my current clip-on, so I decided to buy a TC Electronic UniTune clip-on Chromatic Tuner. This made all the difference in the world; my guitar is now tuned perfectly. Bottom line, great sounding guitar with a great tuner makes playing and learning so much fun. Sweetwater did it again, they shipped my guitar and tuner quickly and it was well packaged to prevent any damage in transit.

Bright tone, Great classic sunburst finish, is a great player, junk tuners, sides are not

It has a bright tone but still very pleasing, Thin neck and smooth frets make it very playable. Installed electronics and had to change the tuning machines after the D string tuner striped its gears. When installing the electronics I noticed the sides ARE NOT Mahogany but a plastic laminate. The outer layer is a thin plastic with wood grain printed on it. The Center layer, and… read more thickest, is same plastic as the binding with a thin veneer of some mystery wood. Once I got the action dialed in it became an inexpensive great sounding and looking that also plays great.

Great guitar for a great price

I was looking for a second acoustic, and this one just kept "singing" to me. I finally pulled the trigger and got it at a great price from Sweetwater. Great customer service as well, as they kept me in the loop at all stages of the purchase. I recommend both guitar and the company.

Amazing!!!

Very nice guitar to play, especially within the price range. It seems like it should be more expensive than it is. Obviously it is not a top of the line guitar, but it holds its tune pretty well for a lower end beginner guitar. I definitely recommend this guitar as a very affordable option when buying a great brand at a great price. The only thing I find disappointing, is the output… read more of the note sounds. It could be a little better in that area, but otherwise a great deal.
