Epiphone EJ160E John Lennon Round Shoulder Dreadnought Acoustic-Electric Guitar Reviews
9 out of 10
""If you want it (a great acoustic guitar)here it is - come and get it!""
Feature:
I love the fact that they used the same woods as my '61 Gibson Hummingbird - top is Solid Spruce and the back and sides are Mahogany- that's why I can compare it to the 'bird - they both sound so sweet!
Quality:
Someone really did great job in re-creating a classic guitar! If you can't afford the Gibson version ( not many can at $2,000.00), this is the next -best thing - and it's pretty-much identical. Mine was a factory second and yet it was just as beautiful as the showroom models!
Value:
Just get it yourself and find out! You'll be very surprised!
Desirability:
Beatiful guitar! Just as nicely done as the Gibson model at a fraction of the price! Worth the money man!
Sound:
I'll tell you, I own a 1961 Gibson Hummingbird and the EJ 160 sounds just as good as a top-of-the-line Gibson. Mind you, it will even get better with age but I'm very happy with the tone and sound so far!
Ease of Use:
I really never give a "10" but this thing will score a "9" in this category. I found the action (factory set) to be pretty good - but I'm going to tweak it a bit to bring it where I like it. Overall it has great playability - I highly recommend it.
Support:
I bought it through a dealer - a factory second so there really is no contact - I'm on my own for service
Overall:
This guitar is really what I needed in order to get the "Beatles" sound as our band "BackBeaT" is really a Rock n Roll/Beatles cover band so we do a lot of the classic Fab Four stuff! It works great for me - I'm looking forward to using it live on stage!

"Almost...as good. And better, too!"
Feature:
No accessories
Quality:
Good Quality. As far as one can tell as good as the Gibson, maybe better.
Value:
Best
Desirability:
Fine. As good as the Gibson for sure.
Sound:
Not as much bass and resonance as the Gibson, which I also own.
Ease of Use:
The Epiphone plays many times better than the Gibson, which has always been a finger-bleeder. I always pick up the Epiphone because the neck is superb, the action perfect. Why not both in one guitar????
Support:

Overall:
The Epiphone just needs the bass and depth and resonance of the Gibson.
