"Epiphone Dot 335. You wouldn't be disappointed if you got one."
Feature:
It's an easy guitar to find the sound you want. On picking it up, it feels like a quality instrument.Not a cheap imitation and fits snugly under your arm.
Quality:
Fits comfortably in your hand, a great finish.Smooth easy action,No edges on the fret work.A nicely finished sunburst coloured guitar...I'd have no problem gigging with it.
No complaints.
Value:
Other people I know have other replicas of the original and consesus of opinion is I got the best of the deal all round.
Desirability:
The style, colour, the tone, It's got everything I want in a guitar.
Sound:
Love the sound,from a nice smooth jazz tone in the up position to the bluesy characteristics in the the middle and down switch position.I use a fender blues junior to play it through and it's unbelievably sexy as hell.I can't give the sound 10 as I haven't compared it to it's Gibson original. But the tone a pleasure to here and play with..
Ease of Use:
With two volume and two tone pots and three way position switch. You find a great variety in the sounds, a good mix and match playability. Always liked the sound of the 335 and this guitar doesn't disappoint.
Support:
Never dealt with the company...Hope I never have to...
Overall:
I cannot see me parting with this instrument.It's made in China and they're a credit to it's reputation as the next best thing to a gibson 335.I found it well made with a great finish on it.

"This guitar puts the lie to the adage that "you have pay for what you get". I felt like a thief walking away with this beauty at"
Feature:
The cherry finish is flawless and mine was a gold hardware "Special Edition" which really looks classy. The hardware is exceptional and the tuners are first rate. I can play for four hours with rarely a tuning adjustment necessary. I did replace the nut with a bone one because the plastic nut cracked when I put on a thcker gauge sting set, but this was only a minor thing.
Quality:
Factory quality control was excellent because this guitar played perfectly, right out of the case. I have gigged with it extensively and, except for a bit of a muddy low end, this guitar has been my main instrument for several years now and I couldn't be more pleased with it.
Value:
For the price, this is an exceptional value. As other reviewers have noted, it blows many much more expensive guitars out of the ball park!
Desirability:
This classic design just exudes class and good looks. The entire package - looks, style, fit and finish, technical quality, playability and sound quality make this guitar irresistable and hard for any serious guitarist to put down. Even if you're not on a limited budget, try this out and compare it to more expensive instruments and you'll be sold.
Sound:
I play in a retro sixties/seventies band and I have owned a Dot for 7 years. This guitar howls and puts out a sound reminiscent of sixties music. I find the bottom end a wee bit muddy and may put in Gibson Classic 57's to perk it up a bit, but it's more than acceptable for live gigs as it is. I owned a Gison Es-335 in the 70's and this guitar stacks up very well against it.
Ease of Use:
I chose this model because of the excellent playability of the Gibson ES-335. This Epiphone version plays just as well. When properly set up, this guitar is a pleasure to play. The three positions availale enable me to coax almost any sound I want from this excellent guitar.
Support:
I had to replace the plastic nut and that would have been free had I not opted to replace it with bone. As it turned out, I only had to pay for the price differential on the part itself, not installation. I am very happy so far with their customer service and the waranty.
Overall:
I have owned this guitar, albeit a "special", more expensive edition, for over 7 years now and it remains my main instrument. As I said, I just might replace the pickups to get a clearer bottom end but, aside from that, I am extremely pleased with this beautiful guitar.
