UTILIZATION

Guitar bought in 1998 without trying it. I wanted this model and no store Montpellier had not in stock. So I bought to order.
I saw right away that the violin was perfect and flawless finish. I think that in 1998 the quality of the instruments was better. The setting against a real cata. Towards the maker of the corner which I tweaked a setting top. I changed the cover plate by transferring the Epiphone logo and painted black.
Recently I changed the neck pickup with a Gibson 57 classic

SOUNDS

I play mostly jazz and bossa. I played in various forms of the duo to big band. Currently I'm playing a trio two guitars and a bass with an occasional drummer, and with a formation of four brass bass guitar piano and drums. I use a Roland cube 60 w.
In use I find it more enjoyable to play. Whether agree or handle chorus is outstanding. The quality of the handle has always been a major asset of Epiphone. And we feel the key Gibson in the finish of the instrument. The treble is easy to play until the break 17. The bridge restores the sound good to the table and the harmony is perfect. The size of the box is nice especially when standing

OVERALL OPINION

Of course it's a late notice because the guitar has 11 years and has enhanced over the years. Personally I do not want to change it because snapping over € 2000 to tell you I saw a Gibson!
I solved the small vibration problems, I changed a microphone. It is followed by a luthier because you should never tinker with a device when you're not at work.

Although it is set to a guitar that has nothing to envy to the great and the memories must be above that this is not because we play on a guitar to € 2000 we will
