Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? I consider this to be an extremely well crafted guitar and it is obviously going to be very dependable. Reliability How has it stood up over time? I havent had it long at all , but it appears very solid. Overall Your general opinion of this product. Very well constructed and attention to detail was painstaking.Very solid. Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? It feels heavy enough to be solid but not overly so . I could jam with this thing on for hours and not be bothered.The neck feels like glass , it's so slick.The controls were well placed and I love the dual sets of knobs . Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? The trebel was bright and the rythym was darker and tonal.The pickups are great.I dont see a need to change them out anytime soon. Finish How did the stain or paint job look? The finish is beautiful and pictures hardly do it justice.. Action How was the action out of the box? The action out of the box was great after a quick tuning.
bang for the buck? can't beat it.

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? the guitar appears to be very well made, the fit and finish are beyond words for the price I paid. Reliability How has it stood up over time? I've only had the guitar for a month now, so I can't rate the reliability, looks as if it's going to hold up well. Overall Your general opinion of this product. excellent value for the price Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? the guitar is heavy, no doubt about it. I'm used to the light weight of my Fender, sonoma acoustic, which is a feather weight compared to the Les Paul. the neck is perfect, very fast and just the right feel. I'm still a little sketchy on the basic controls as this is my first "electric" so are they easy to get to while playing? no. Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? Tone? I could tell you more if I had more background with electric guitars, as is I'm at the present satisfied with the tone. Finish How did the stain or paint job look? I bought the heritage cherry burst pattern and I can't stress enough how immpressed I was with the guitars finish....superb! Action How was the action out of the box? out of the box intonation was slightly off, but not enough to warrant having it adjusted, someting I wouldn't want to attempt with my lack of skills.
I LOVE THIS GUITAR !!!

How was the action out of the box? Great, i just tune it and started playing. Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? This guitar is very well made. I was shocked just how beautiful and well put together this guitar was. Reliability How has it stood up over time? I have had mine just for a couple of weeks now and everything is Great. Overall Your general opinion of this product. 1 Beautiful Guitar !!! Great sound, Great tones, Great looks, Great feel, Easy to play, Again I LOVE THIS GUITAR !!! Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? It feels perfect. The neck is a little smaller than the other neck on my other guitar that i have. I like the smaller neck, its easier to play. Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? I love the smooth and mellow tones it puts out, but if you wanted to get on it and just rock, it wouldn't let you down. Finish How did the stain or paint job look? Outstanding!!!

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? Lifetime warranty, what else do you need? Reliability How has it stood up over time? Overall Your general opinion of this product. I had a Gibson Les Paul many years ago and had to sell it. I wanted to replace it recently but couldn't afford a Gibson so I bbought the Epiphone version. I played both guitars (Gibson and Epiphone) side by side, plugged in, in a store and could not find a differnce. Seriouly. It is absolutely identical. I have adjusted the action and checked the other adjustments but those were perfect out of the box. Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? It plays like a Les Paul. It feels the same as the one I owned back in the 70s. the neck is dead straight and true.It is heavy but it stays put if you play hard. Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? This is a PAF humbucker pickup guitar and sounds like it. You have heard it a million times and love it. Finish How did the stain or paint job look? The flame top on this guitar is beautiful, truly classic. Identical to Gibson finish Action How was the action out of the box? the action was set to factory speces but I was able to bring it way down with no buzzing.
"Awesome"

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? for a $500 guitar you would think you were playing a $1000 axe Reliability How has it stood up over time? just received it today...haven't put it down since I unboxed it but I can tell this baby will last awhile Overall Your general opinion of this product. 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 How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? again plays like a dream Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? 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 How did the stain or paint job look? 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 How was the action out of the box? set up great..a little different from what i am used to but I love the feel
