Product Review
The first one they shipped me had an issue with the battery/ tuner after a couple of weeks. They quickly sent out a new one. ( thank you AMS!) about seven months later I had an issue with the tuners where the A string would skip. AMS advised me to contact Gibson but I decided to call guitar center in Daytona because I knew they were an authorized Gibson repair shop. They told me they only work on what’s bought through them. I called Gibson and they told me to go to GC. So I decided not to call but show up. They immediately said they only repair guitars purchased through them. I informed them Gibson advised me to come to them. They took my guitar from January to March claiming Gibson was holding them up. I called Gibson to check and they told me this was the first call they made to get the parts. I get it back and it works well again. About two weeks later same problem different string. They tell me it’s out of the one year warranty. and now I’m pretty much stuck with it.

Bright sound & hefty feel with good resonance

At the price I bought this as a 'blemished' discount, probably should give 5***** :) Model came with the 'cursed' MiniTune system, which (no problem) now replaced with quality Grovers has yielded an amazing dreadnaught cut-away at a bargain price, so I don't sweat it every time I accidently knock it on something!!! Frankly the MiniTune system worked really well for the first week I had it, and almost left on except it made the guitar feel just a tad heavy leading to neck dive, that and I like stuff to be simple - Buying this on 3-pay made it ever simpler!

Just got it yesterday and it sounds great! I’m still trying to figure out the tuning features to program one that isn’t already on it, but it is pretty cool how you can retune quickly and precisely.

Epiphone FT350SCE
By: Larry L.

Product Review
The Mini E-Tune is one reason that I bought this guitar.I've played it every day for weeks now.
The guitar was on sale at a great price, and I was looking for something inexpensive. It sounds great and to my surprise it has a really sweet neck and great projection. A few months ago I bought a custom shop Gibson and I don't want to put a lot of wear and tear on it. That's the main reason why I bought the FT350SCE. I like the free 2 day shipping too.
I'm seriously thinking about buying another one.
Thanks AMS.
Thanks AMS

Literally recieved this guitar hours ago. Plugged the battery into the charger and charged it up. After about an hour and a half the battery was fully charged and then followed the directions to tune the guitar. Its kinda strange watching your guitar tune itself! Very simple procedure. The guitar itself is flawless. The action is nice and low, the frets smooth. The neck is comfortable. Plays very nice. Sweet sounding guitar. So far I would have to say it's a keeper. Will give it a rest today and give it a chance to adjust. I down loaded the manual for this guitar on line so I'll have the info for string changes when needed. Even though I haven't had it long I would still highly recommend it, it being on sale makes it an even better deal

I bought this for my lead singer and he absolutely loves it. The acoustic tone is LOUD and rich, as one would expect from a solid top. The amplified is great too. Don't be put off by the Min ETune tuners. Even if you're not into open tunings, the one button tuning is really handy. And, it's easily replaced if you decide to go "analog" at a later time.
Highly recommended. Get it while you can!

Product Review
Really beautiful guitar for the price. Action was a little low but after a quick adjustment it's near perfect for me. The automatic tuning takes a little getting used to but now it's so nice to quickly be able to switch to an alternate tuning on the fly. It's accurate and I feel more inclined to tune-up in between songs. I'd recommend grabbing a strap because of the added weight to the headstock, it's a little heavy on my left hand without it. Haven't tried plugging it in yet but it sounds amazing unplugged.

My 16 yr old has wanted a new guitar for so long! He researched many and this was the one he fell in love with! He played a live show using this guitar for the first time and the sound was AMAZING! It was everything and more he had hoped it would be! There’s nothing better as a parent when you see your child’s dream come true! Thank you AMS for this amazing product and extremely prompt service!

This guitar is absolutely awesome. Not only does it tune
itself, it sounds amazing too.
This is my first guitar, and I am very pleased I selected Epiphone. I don't think I could have found a better guitar for the money. I can't wait to plug into an amp. The easy payments made my purchase a no-brainer. Arrived very fast and in perfect condition. Five stars in every respect. Don't even think twice. Buy it.

Very good guitar, the battery for the mini tune was defective. I have a Led Paul with mini tune and used that battery and it worked. Contacted gibson/Epiphone and got a new battery and charger. Works great a terrific guitar for the price.

Between the service and the guitar I’m thoroughly impressed. All questions I had were answered quickly and with generosity. The product is as described in on the website a perfect guitar for all levels of play. I love the zero interest pay plan as well not to many companies offer that and it made my decision of what company to choose. Thank you I am one happy customer!

Product Review
The guitar's action was a little bit high, right out of the box; I will probably adjust the action when aI change the strings as the action wasn't terrible. The MinETune adds a little bit more weight geared toward the neck of the guitar. This is because of the battery used to tune the strings. This being said, the weight is nothing too heavy to impede playing, just something worth noting. I have a friend who has a heavy acoustic/electric Breedlove guitar and it is not at all that heavy.
The guitar plays and handles like a Takamine I had (EG531DLX). The Takamine's sound improved with age, I can only hope for the same with this Epiphone.
The MinETune is good for tuning single strings, but the directions say if you are to tune all 6 strings at once, you are to mute the strings that aren't tuned right away. Honestly, how can you do that? Makes no sense. That being said, this is still a very good guitar, just temper your expectations with the MinETune.

Sound is great and will only get better. Min Etune is very cool and accurate. I did have to set the action to lower the strings closer to the fretboard to satisfy my taste and also change the strings, that was expected. The string changing feature makes strings changes very fast and easy.
