    Received mine yesterday, in Vintage Sunburst. Here is what I think:
    These guitars, like most well made epiphone entry-level models, need nothing more than fresh strings and a good setup.
    But it goes beyond just slapping strings on. Lot's of noobs complain about how the tuners suck, and how quick they were to replace them. Some already had the replacements before the guitar!
    If you string up using the locking method, demonstrated by Gary Brawer (look him up), you can enjoy the most budget guitars without having to replace a thing (as long as they are well built guitars, like Epiphones are).
    With the locking method of stringing, lubricating the nut with a pencil, and properly stretching the strings, I can keep it perfectly in tune, no slipping at the tuner or buzzing or problems with the nut. Everything works as it should. The wraparound bridge, another common hasty replacement, works perfectly as well. I use 9-42 D'Addario strings and play blues, jazz, classic rock and alternative rock and the pickups will play any of these genres well. The pickups, which you can adjust (modders rarely do this, but they are quick to throw in replacements which they still do not adjust smh) sound great and remind me of a telecaster tone, although sometimes it sounds like p90s. Also, I wish I could share a picture of the frets: they are medium jumbo and perfectly installed, it would seem the neck was pulled from a much more expensive Epiphone, that's how nice they are. I polished them and they look great, no fret spout or sharp frets as reported by other people when they first came out. I put chrome telecaster knobs on it and I am happy with it stock.
    Bottom line: get one and enjoy it for what it is. If you are a modder, at least spend time with it before throwing unnecessary components that will take time and money away when you can be enjoying this. If you have some decent amps, tube or not, or modeling amps, you will find many great tones with this cheap but killer ax. I got the satin finish and it is a resonant joy to play.

      I own the black one and had to swap the machine heads out almost straight away, and the pickups are possibly the weakest single coils I have ever played through. But still once those things have been sorted it's an absolute beast for the money.

      @@maravickarlo1568 Yes please read my comment below, they are excellent and there's no need to swap out anything. Learn to properly string up your guitars using the locking method by Gary Brawer, use some pencil on your nuts, stretch the strings, and last but certainly not least, remember to adjust the pickup heights - this guitar needs nothing to play and sound amazing.

    This would actually sound nice if you replaced the nut with a Tusq nut, then changed the tuners to Schaller locking tuners, then upgraded the bridge to a Faber, then changed the pickups and modded it for Duncan P-rails, then put some push pull pots for more tone options.... and voila...

    • @socialdef3

      no need for any of that hipster/cork sniffer philosophy. That $99 guitar is fine as is for what its intended to be - beginner or bedroom players. Not an axe to go on a world tour with, but if you needed to there's no reason to spend $200+ of mods on a $99 guitar.

    Why do people put the word "review" in their titles when they don't actually review?...some would say that is dishonest and clickbaity unless they don't understand what a review is. But this guy said there was "no talking" so I guess he doesn't understand.

      There's literally 100's of videos with real reviews and 100's of online written/text reviews. Don't know why you're throwing a fit for. Sounded great to my ears, I can read a review while I listen to this, not a big deal. Then again, you're name is Todd, so go figure.
