Nice guitar for the cost
Like that it's lighter than an Les Paul. The sustain feeling in the lower strings is amazing. You can do bends pretty easy if you want. Metallic paint is really nice. Pickups are crisp. Love the master volume control. Mine had one tiny tiny paint flaw on the edge of a F hole but I don't even notice or care anymore. Definitely recommend.
Punches above its weight
For the price of this guitar, you really can't go wrong. The components are very generous, and the finish is nearly perfect. The only downside is that it is made in China. (Poor resale value) I might swap out the pickups and get a good setup, out of the box though, it was pretty friggin good.
Exceeded my high expectations
With all the on-line reviews and YouTube comparison videos, one ought to have a pretty good idea what to expect. The guitar not only looks even better than the pictures, but sounds really, really great. I'm so pleased. I received a thank you note from CEO Chuck Surack, where he mentions that he started the company to deliver the kind of service he felt he deserved as a customer.… read more His mission to hire the best people, treat the customer fairly and with respect, and wanting the customer to be amazed, was demonstrated with my order. Thanks to my Sales Engineer Zack, assisted by Skylar. The playability was easy right out of the box. Even the packing for shipping was above and beyond. My wife will be buying her keyboard from Sweetwater.
Blue Monster!
I think it's safe to say that Epiphone has definately upped it's game. Fit and finish on this instrument is impeccable. The blue on this guitar just "pops". It does have CTS pots and the pickups are a vast improvement over the mini humbuckers in my older Epiphones. Very comfortable guitar to play.
