Features: It has premium woods, bookmatched Mahogany body, USA humbucker pickups (50SR and 60ST), grover tuners, rosewood fretboard, 22 frets, and Cherry or Ebony finish.

Construction: Well constructed and finished. Looks exactly like the Gibson but with the Epi name. The only thing I didn't like about it was the strap holders. My strap came off way too easy but a set of straplocks fixed that.

Sound: The sound is awesome! You can play anything with this guitar. If you can name it, you can play it (blues, jazz, and ROCK!!) The USA humbekers really make it shine. I compared it to a Gibson '61 reissue and it was just a good if not better!

Ease of Use: This guitar is so easy to use, even with the factory setup. I would recommend that you get it setup at a guitar shop though.

Reliability: It is very reliable if you get everything set up at a guitar shop which you should anyway when you get a new guitar. But from the factory it is pretty reliable too. This guitar will last you for many years to come!

Overall: I give this guitar a 11 out of 10!!! It is a really great guitar! I would recommend that you go check it out.
