The poorman's Gibson

The guitar it self has a good hand feel, the lacker on it is very smooth and playing with metal strings just give you that country vibe while playing.

So I have this guitar for a time now, it resonates very well because of the Jumbo body.

I like the guitar very much for the price and the quality

Initially disappointed with this guitar, was going to send it back. Action was way two high, both saddle and nut needed filing. Pickup was kinked & not seated properly so the saddle was too high on 1 side. Replaced the strings with elixir 80/20 10's as I had just re-started playing, still sounded very quite for a jumbo. tried 13's, much much better, not a Gibson but it is 10 times cheaper. Neck was fine, might need a small tweak with the bigger strings. Finish is excellent, nicest guitar I have ever seen, you would keep its simply for its looks. Sounds fab plugged in. for 419 euro's, you wont do much better.

great acoustic

feels good and it's loud enough when playing without using DI. great finish and ergonomy (considering body size).

Classic !

These guitars deliver in spades ,visually, sound ,and features,

The woods selected for body are nicely grained and matched.

The fret board is super level .

Machine head's are as smooth as silk.

Preamp delivers a good range of tones if just a little under powered.

Sound quality is a good step up from many mid priced guitars,nice balanced bas quite pleasing trebles maybe just a hint of boxiness .verdict ! Great guitar but I personally prefer Harley Bentons CL king jumbo,it just edges the epiphone out of the running

Sound finish and overall quality. But the epiphone is still a great guitar with classic appeal.

Its a very good guitar but i hope the description on the guitar is what i really get. The description says its equipped with esonic pick up but when i got the guitar, it is equipped with fishman presys basic. On the box of the guitar itself, there is a label that says its with shadow esonic 2. Its very frustrating specially i ordered it online and i dont have any idea what the guitar really looks like in actual. Hope they can fix this issue

Good guitar

Well-made version of the Gibson pricier equivalent!

Pros: affordable yet decent sounding. Beautiful as hell!

Cons: it doesn't quite produce as much sound as you'd expect from a jumbo sized guitar.
