Product Description

Engineering a 12-string of this quality at such low a price is no easy feat. The perennial 12-string concerns of string tension and tuning stability all had to be considered, and with the DR-212, Epiphone has delivered on all fronts. Great for folk, rock, and country, the DR-212 projects bright, full 12-string tone to fill any room and complement any voice.

An Affordable 12-string Solution

Doubling the amount of strings of a normal dreadnought presents a series of design challenges for any acoustic builder. The added tension on the neck and body frequently results in untamed action on the fretboard and uncooperative tuning. Not so with the DR-212. Epiphone has outfitted this guitar with chrome die-cast machine tuning heads to enhance the stability of the strings. The solid mahogany back and sides with select spruce top have been specially braced to withstand the pressures of 12-strings, making this a durable and long-lasting guitar. Plus, the expanded projection and sustain achieved with this style of build helps this 12-string produce a bright, bold sound.

Features:

-Spruce top with scalloped bracing to ensure stability
-Classic look with chrome hardware and white binding
-Solid rosewood bridge to withstand extra tension of 12-string
-Solid mahogany body with set mahogany neck for excellent tone and sustain
-Epiphone limited lifetime warranty with 24/7/365 customer service

The Epiphone DR-212 clears the common 12-string hurdles of tuning stability and high action, and the result is a bold sounding and affordable guitar. Expand your playing options with a new 12-string: the DR-212 is a great choice. zZounds is an authorized dealer of Epiphone products.

"Worth way more than it costs!"
Overall: I don't think you could find a better 12 string for twice the money.The money you save,you could buy a nice hardshell case for it.there wasn't any buzzing of the strings as you play up the neck.I was very surprised at the quality.I will not hesitate to buy another Epiphone in the future.
Style of Music: blues + rock

"Great sound, great looks, great value."
Overall: This 12-string sounds amazing, plain and simple. Despite the low price, this Epiphone has a very full, rich sound that you would expect out of a more expensive guitar. It could use a little bit of adjusting, to be honest. The strings sit a little high off the neck, especially closer to the body of the guitar, but overall the action is superb. Can't really ask for much better considering the price.
