Already, this guitar is beautiful. The pictures on the net make it not always justice.
This little claret with ribs of wood you see, the pickups and gold finishes, the ivory white edging on the edges, it is beautiful, is that the kif.
Setting typical of what kind of guitar: 2 separate microphones, each volume and tone. Very nice to get the boost in sweat from the mic acute intermediate position which sounds very jazzy. I was accustomed to intermediate positions in the stratum, nothing to see.
The tones of true tones, that is to say between 0 and 100 there is some way to go and find different colors, and each microphone is really strong.
The tuners are a joy and precision of effect oil!

UTILIZATION

The handle is great. I was accustomed to a handle "smaller" Strat mexico, and there despite the size difference is very comfortable, I felt immediately at home. The mother of pearl inlays are very successful and more successful I think we can all see on an Epiphone Sheraton and greenish glare ...
Compared to a stratum one has the impression that the twelfth fret is half the race! Maintenatn I still sometimes I cheat with 2 boxes when I'm sick of the one or GO!
Access to acute is without problems, and once standing can easily be found a very conformable to play. Finally it's my opinion.
Damage to the input jack on the front edge and not as a Sheraton, it can interfere with sitting. The selector is the Les Paul which can lead to unwanted changes of position if the gesture was too loose ...
The sound is direct. One branch, micro serious, and it was hot! A little more drive and you can feel the grain and tingling inside of the guitar!

SOUNDS

For sounds warm and clean, it is perfect. SIn a fender with a little reverb, balance / bass lmedium / treble is there, the bass is pr & ECIS, although the tone can color the sound. The microphone could be more acute slamming, but once again I was playing on a strato thus far transistion is cash.
Huge sound with distortion, and the balance is there too, it was accuracy, not blur it, it's clean. Once again, it might be a little more shrill in the treble but it must be the characteristic of this kind of guitar too ... I plan to buy micro Gibson subsequently gaining in accuracy and character.

OVERALL OPINION

I have this guitar for about 6 months. Initially I was focused on the Sheraton, but after 3 months wait-Epiphone Gibson wants to deliver all the good stores in Paris, I deepened my research. I had tried natural color but excuse me from the little she is ugly as natural, as in Ibanez and Sheraton, it's not happening. Finally after questiopn is a taste. But red is gorgeous and really finishes successful.
What I love most: the warm sound of the micro gravity, the correct answer crunch and distortion, balance acute low medium generally found the phrasing sounds more jazz posioition intermediate response of the micro acute when we vary attack. A good drive and pick ca pete, a éfleurement and is still clean. And finally, the possibilities to vary the color of her as she wished juouant the 4 knobs and microphones.
What I like least? Go the weight! But after what must have when we want what we want, what!
I bought it 3 months after mature reflection, and other posts on AF trials street Douai, etc.. The value for money is amazing, especially since I bought it to 650 euros in the provinces because the guy obviously thought he had in stock for too long!
I'll buy without hesitation. A beautiful guitar like this, with this sound, these finishes, balance and everything, for this price there is no comparison. It's a pity she is not better known because really for someone looking for a half cui fund type ES335 with a budget of 700 euros, I think there really is no better on the market. A word ...
