Overall: I ordered it on a Thursday and received it on Tuesday. This axe came flawless. It is a blast to play and my jam buddies couldn't seem to put it down either. Thanks to Epiphone and Jeff Water's for creating a sick axe. And thanks to zZounds.com for making it possible for a poor person like myself to afford this guitar.

Sound: Sound is excellent!!!love these pick ups...would not change a thing. Feature: love the split coil and the kill switch...

Quality: came in great condition everything worked like it was sappost to.no hidden problems at all.Had to make a few minor adjustment but then again what new guitar doesn't...could not of asked for more.. Value: Very good price for this axe...get it you won't be sorry...I have been playing for 20+ years and have played most of the brands on the planet and this one is 1 of the best i have played so far...Its a must have for any rock guitarist... Manufacturer Support: Have not had to use it yet... The Wow Factor: Looks as good as it sounds... Overall: Too soon to tell but as of now its great!!!!!

Sound: Well the neck pickup sucks, it's noisy and there is really no point of selling it with this guitar. The Bridge pickup however is pretty decent. I think this guitar was basically designed around the bridge pickup anyhow. It's a hot pickup to the point where you can still strum and hear the notes clearly. This pickup isn't as hot as I usually like them to be but am going to keep it in place for the time being. I have played this guitar through 2 different types of digital amps and 2 types of tube amps. It definitely has it's sweet spots with each. Feature: This guitar has many features including a push/pull for single coil sound, which again is only worth using on the bridge pickup. There is also a kill button which I always wanted just for fun and it is that, but noisy. It's kind of a cheap button, but does the job. This guitar also came with Epiphone strap locks which broke within 5 minutes of installing. I replaced with a Dunlop Straplok set. Ease of Use: I was scared of the neck, because Epiphone's are notorious for having over sized necks and this one is perfect. It has a good 'D' shape to it and even my friend who has smaller hands than I was happy with it as well. He also owns an Epiphone which he hates due to the neck, so that should say something. Quality: It's a nice guitar, a little over priced if you ask me. I think it's worth every penny of $500 but $700 is a little much. I got the black version which is cool because the inlays are reflective chrome/mirror style and the neck is an interesting material. I have an issue with the devil inlay on the neck which is you can see glue spots. It takes away from the look, but I am anal I guess. The paint is a flat black and the guitar is really light. It's a little off balance but if you play 'V' style guitars you know what I mean. Value: It's not worth the money but if you spend $300 it would be kick ass. I plan on replacing the Grover tuners with Sperzel's and the pickups eventually. The Wow Factor: It's a cool looking guitar and comfortable to play. Overall: I like this guitar a lot, even if you don't get that from reading the rest of my review. I am being honest and no guitar is perfect unless you pay an arm and a leg for it. So when you purchase a less expensive guitar you have to figure in some things you wish were better.

1. We offer the most flexible payment plans in the biz

zZounds offers a number of different installment payment plans that make it affordable and convenient for you to get the gear you really want today, without racking up risky credit card debt.

Other stores offer house credit cards that require you to fill out an application and pass a credit check--and, if you qualify, leave you vulnerable to exorbitant interest charges once the initial promotional period ends. zZounds payment plans are easy to get and simple to use; plus we'll never charge you interest!

2. We guarantee the lowest price

If we don't already have the lowest price, just send us a link to any legitimate competitor's offer, and we'll beat their price as long as we're not losing money on the deal.

To submit a request for a lower price, click "Seen it for less?" on any product page. We answer most lowest price requests within two hours. For extra peace of mind, you also have 30 days after your purchase to find a lower price; if you do, we'll refund the difference.

Because we have two well-situated warehouses--one on each coast--nearly three- quarters of the US population is located within our two-day shipping zones. Plus, we keep both warehouses well stocked with all the most popular products, so you'll usually get your gear fast without having to pay more for expedited shipping.

5. Our customer service is consistently rated the best

zZounds customer service is consistently rated at or near the top on every major comparison shopping website--probably because we only hire experienced musicians with outstanding customer service skills to work in our call center, and they don't work on commission.
