Feature:
Doesn't have too much in the way of tone switching. It has pickup selection switch, one vol, one tone control. But of those sounds all of them are something I didn't have with my other guitars. It's quite a drab looking thing and no dot inlays on the fretboard, I can't see them when I am standing anyway. It's not the showiest model that's for sure.
Quality:
Not a blemish. The frets are good but not polished. The frets are smooth on the edges, none sharp or sticking out at all. The neck is straight.
Value:
The sound is right on but the guitar is drab appearing, no flash.
Super value though. It has all the things the BIG GUY has so of course it will sound like it. All maple body and neck and alnico humbucks and THE sound is there.
Desirability:
It sounds like the Gibson Lucille and it plays great, great action and it's lighter in weight than Lucille.
Sound:
I tried this one through a Marshall ModeFour along with every other Epiphone 335 type semi-hollow and I really liked the sound of the Studio. Then just to be sure, I played the Gibson Lucille model with the Varitone. On setting 1 the Lucille sounds exactly like the DOT Studio or vice versa. I couldn't find another sound on the Varitone that I liked anyway. The Studio has that midrange punch that sounds like 'ol BB and that's what I was looking for. You know it's right when you hear it. The DOT Studio is the one you want.
Ease of Use:
Mine weighs about 8 pounds and that's acceptable. The action is at 1/16 inch at the twelfth fret. The intonation was off, but there was plenty of room for correction.
Support:
I don't know
Overall:
This is what I went looking for and I found it. A guitar that played the blues so easy it just pours out of it. No muss, no fuss it's easy to get
that great sound, I didn't fiddle around searching for it. It sounds like Lucille and anyone can afford it.
