Customer Reviews
4.5 out of 5 (54 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "All you need to do is watch this video."
Sound: This guitar sounds fantastic! It's a little dark but still versatile. P-90's are very expressive and you can get a lot of sound out of this thing if you want. Words can't describe it though, just watch this video of my band "The Trip" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYqvGC9KmTU It's a beast, you've got to work with the master volume to tame it. Feature: Master Volume control is all you need to get this thing going. Has all the features you could ask for. Ease of Use: Easy to use, again, just back down on the master volume pot if you have to. Quality: Licensed Bigsby, Grover Tuners, Flamed Maple top, mahogany body with set neck.. All for such a good price!!!! Had to threadlock the input jack and glued in the top strap holder because it kept getting loose. No big deal though. Value: Such a good deal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Manufacturer Support: Never had any issues, no support needed. The Wow Factor: This guitar is so sexy! The looks are stunning! Overall: This guitar will always be on stage with me. I don't see myself playing a gig without it. Seriously just watch the video I linked to above.
Style of Music: All

"One Hot & Wild Kat!"
Sound: Absolute killer single coil P-90 wail. The P-90 is a legend for a reason. The small semi-hollowbody adds to its unique sound. As with others of this style there can be a feedback problem if played loud in a very small space. Good miking helps avoid this. The Bigsby sounds like a Bigsby but adds the problem of frequent tuning needed. Feature: No accessories except a very crummy "instrument" cable but it does come with both hex keys needed. The master volume is tits fer sure. Easy to use and "set it and forget it" with the added versatility of the3-way Les Paul style switch on top. Ease of Use: Very nice neck profile. Smaller body shape makes it usable by smaller players but it's not so small bigger players feel confined. Some neck dive maybe but I never noticed as I use lined straps only (suede or wool) and it's a lightweight as well. The gripes about going out of tune? Easy - don't buy anything but hardtails. Any vibrato or tremolo on any guitar is a tuning chore. Quality: Set up super before shipping. Grover machines? Genuine Bigsby? P-90 Alnico pups? It does not get any better, especially at this price! Value: Like I said above - find any guitar this well made of quality tonewoods and with the appointments this guitar has for even 50% more and I'll buy it. Manufacturer Support: Never needed it on this ax. Have dealt with Epiphone and Gibson before and always get answers even if Gibson takes awhile. The Wow Factor: This ax is hot. Even snooty "name brand" buyers openly admire its looks and many comment on the sound, the styling overall. Overall: I can't see getting rid of this guitar for any reason. Will I buy others? Sure. But this fills the spot for rockabilly/hard blues & blues rock very well. Would I like a Gibson 335? You betchum. Can't swing it. If this were stolen I would prosecute to the fullest and ask for the thief to be sentenced to play a Wal-Mart Special for life.
Style of Music: Blues & blues/rock mostly
