MGR/Dan « Epiphone Special »
Published on 01/24/04 at 15:00I got this guitar from an individual not a store. I payed about 60 bucks for it, because it was used and because it wasn't in very good condition. The reason i bought it was because my squire strat was a huge piece of crap.
there are a few things i like about this guitar. 1, it was really cheap. 2 it has more sustain than my squire strat. The other is if you are hard on this instrument it doesn't really matter because it is fairly tough and you arn't loosing anything special if you trash it.
It doesn't stay in tune for more than a half an hour. It doesn't have very good sound and the pickups buzz so much it would make you wish you were deaf.
As i said before the construction is fairly good. The quality isnt bad for a guitar with a list price of about 170 bucks.
This isn't a bad deal for a first guitar, because you dont know if you'll stick with it, but if you already play dont waste you're money. Go for a real gibson. They're the best. I just bought an SG supreme a few day's ago and i love it.
