All information has already been mentioned by my predecessors, but a reminder does not hurt

Mine was made in indonesia, handle has 22 frets, 2 humbuckers, 1 three-position switch and two knobs: one for volume and the other tone.

UTILIZATION

I had the opportunity to play on other guitars, and I can tell you that the handle is quite nice and flat, which is good practice to enter into agreements as well as small solos.

Access to acute is relatively good, it is not a form SRAT, but this is pretty good! You just get used to and after a good adjustment notes are all only a small 4ch to shred etc ... For sound, just tweak the knobs.

The shape is good, it is not uncomfortable to wear. I've seen other opinions saying that it is quite heavy, but personally I have not complain about her weight.

In addition, it is well balanced! Playing up I can let go and not move a muscle.

SOUNDS

I started with this guitar and a Roland Cube 15X, and fiddling the buttons I managed to get a sound that I liked. Subsequently I acquired a Modtone Extreme Metal (I highly recommend the passage, a huge palette of sounds!) And a Bugera V55 (not really for metal, but hey, so what !) and there ... My life changed!

This guitar sounds are simply good on a tube amp, plain can have its crystalline bridge pickup and a soft and warm handle. Fiddling in my pedal, the bridge pickup sends paté and I get to have a very good sound to make good big rhythmic style trivium, I use the neck pickup for good rather large metal solos, fat, or those the lover, it works too!

OVERALL OPINION

it's been a few years since I used ... for 4 or 5 years, and still no problems with!

Given that this was my first electric, I have not tried before.

I love the color, the sun is simply sublime! In fact, I have not much to complain about this guitar.

With the following gear (I speak of a tube amp and some pedals) can deliver this guitar sounds very nice, so I would do this choice without much hesitation. In short, the price / quality ratio is very good!

I acquired an Ibanez RGR321EX few years later, but I always use more of my little Epiphone. I recommend this guitar without hesitation! 8/10! I'm really pleased with this guitar
