Made in China, a classic.
Official replica of the Gibson ... almost ten times cheaper!
Hollow body with the openings in F, double cutaway, two humbuckers AlNiCo classic, Tune o matic ... Epiphone's classic.
Mahogany body and maple set neck with a touch of maple with rosewood ... the 60's are yours!

UTILIZATION

The handle is just great although I think the action of the original string is set ... but we ride through highs with ease!
Really great and made for the blues ...
A bit heavy (but less than a Les Paul) but fairly balanced unlike other less expensive copies.
The sound for this price range is really good! It will not play metal (quoique. ..) but for the soft rock and melodic (Oasis Phone) and ranges of blues is the guitar sound and look!

SOUNDS

I play pop rock that's perfect if you play the blues is even better!
I use it on an amp H & K Attax 80 and it makes it very well, the output level of the microphone is quite impressive ...

The better sustain, a real set neck, the humbuckers but not too fat, a body dug ... it vibrates into your body and it's magic!

+ 1 for the microphones, a + + to sustain

OVERALL OPINION

I've had two months is really a super skyscraper!
No surprise, it's not Gibson, but the spike in flavor all its own ... grab you and you end up thirty years ago!
For the price range is the best I found ... perhaps a flaw: the abscence of cover and availability, but the problems of all gibson ...

Value for money: 9 / 10, bought 420 euros in Music gallery Evreux (27)

Ps: for more euros to set, make the effort to take it rather than the studio, it's still much better; mandatory cherry color, it's a 335!
