UTILIZATION

I find the handle really nice, it's a pleasure to play with this set. The key is fairly flat and me Sounds good :-) we move from one rhythm to a solo without any problems.

The access to the latest box is not great, like a les paul ... But that does not play some nice solos.

As a les paul ... it is heavy, but it's still fun to play just a little change of position when it starts to hurt and it's go again!

I find the sound great! Some say that the micro epiphone guitars are not great, but I find it good, at least well suited to this guitar that costs only 400 should not be forgotten. So for now the microphones allow me to play what I want as I want, it can be seen later to change them, but for now no question :-)

There are some small manufacturing defects but nothing major, definitely closer than 5 cm to see, so do not worry, if she is really beautiful!

SOUNDS

For the style of music I play is perfect especially anything that is "rock" through Oasis, ACDC, Led Zep, Hendrix etc ... and no worry about all this :-) and also some blues and jazz, and so is the sound is beautiful, I love the sound of the les paul and this is mainly why I chose it.

I use a small Marshall amp ac mg15dfx preamp and a Line6 Pod 2.0, which allows for lots of different sounds but always pleasing to the ear ;-)

I would say that the sound from the crunch to more convienent largest saturation has this guitar, I think they finally sounds great, much better now than on the other anyway!
In terms of its clear, it is a little harder to get a good sound (AC remains my taste) because I find it rather flat and let's say I do not like, it takes a few small adjustments to get clear sound with a little more "volume", less flat, but when found is good, clear sound is also very good (it's still not why jai took the paul! hahaha the knob gain a background!:-D)

OVERALL OPINION

It's been four months that I have.

My favorite is the profile of the handle very nice, the shape of the guitar that I find very beautiful, and of course the sound (especially saturated.

What I like least .. uh .. Ben is a bit heavy, but nothing insurmountable

Before I have a copy of strata (never again now that the jai les paul!) And I tried a few half boxes.

The report qualitprix really is very good, yes it is made in China, allowing this low price, but it is beautiful, really a very good guitar for those who love the les paul.

Of course I do it again this choice, without any hesitation. Gibson Epiphone and thank you:-D
