| Quality:
| for a $500 guitar you would think you were playing a $1000 axe |
| Sound:
| perfect..you want crunch you got it..then kick in the rythm pickup and a great clean tone and you have the smoothest sound...beautiful |
| Reliability:
| just received it today...haven't put it down since I unboxed it but I can tell this baby will last awhile |
| Overall:
| I was never a big fan of Les Pauls..Always a Strat kinda guy..Well I got an itch to own a Les Paul and like most normal hard working Americans with a family a real Gibson is kinda outta reach price wise..So I took a shot with the epiphone..WOW!!!!!!!!!! what a great freakin guitar!!!!!..It looksabsolutely beautiful..plays like a dream..and sounds... well...ball crushingly amazing!!! |
| Playability and Feel:
| again plays like a dream |
| Tone:
| with the dual volume and tone knobs you can get any tone you want...pickups are great....may throw some seymour dunkins in it...doubt it though |
| Finish:
| amazing..I got the heritage cherry sunburst..for the first hour after I unboxed it I put it on my stand and just stared at it listening to Zepelin..lol |
| Action:
| set up great..a little different from what i am used to but I love the feel |

| Quality:
| If you take a stack of 6 $100 dollar bills and stack them next to this guitar its an easy choice. For a mostly machine made AXE this is one of the best made guitars i've seen in a long time. |
| Reliability:
| I dont expect it to last forever but at this price, throwing it around doesnt bother me. It will hopefully be a great road go-to. |
| Overall:
| Aside form a few cosmetic flaws like binding a little off and some ajustments out of the box im quite impressed. |
| Playability and Feel:
| This is where its great. It feels very very much like my buddies 75'Gibson Les Paul Standard. Its sounds almost exactly the same. |
| Tone:
| Play a Gibson Les Paul Standard and then play one of theses side by side. If you can honestly tell a world of difference(which you won't), then take out a loan and get the Gibson. I cant believe how great this guitar sounds for the money. |
| Finish:
| This is where its lacking a little.. Its not a real wood finish top, its a sticker and/or painted. Hard to tell but you know it in the back of your head and might get to some people. Mine was a slight bit off center. Very hard to see and I just noticed it today. No one else will prolly ever notice. |
| Action:
| I made some ajustments to get rid of fret buzz. Other than that it plays well. |

| Quality:
| Go to a music shop and take a buddy. Have them grab a Gibson and an Epiphone and cover the head stocks. You can't tell at first glance that they're different. If you switch out the pick ups and electronics (depending on what wood it's made out of), you can NOT audibly tell them apart. |
| Reliability:
| They are solid. |
| Overall:
| Worth every penny. |
| Playability and Feel:
| They re the real deal without the price tag. |
| Tone:
| Very nice right out of the case. |
| Finish:
| I have a Honeyburst Plus top and it looks amazing. |
| Action:
| I had to set it up. |
