zZounds Gear Experts Say...
Get the sound and character of a high-end guitar for a low price. This Epiphone acoustic electric comes equipped with an eSonic2 pickup system installed.
Overview
Epiphone Masterbilt guitars are built to such great specifications that they rival overly expensive "higher-end" guitars. The AJ500ME is crafted with a solid mahogany body and topped with solid sitka spruce providing both warmth and character that only gets better with age. A rosewood fingerboard on a mahogany neck provide smooth playability. Masterbilt guitars provide quality to last for years whenever, wherever, or however you use them.

"Great guitar, with crappy electronics!"
Would be a great guitar with a different preamp setup.
Sound
It sounds great when the Esonic 2 pickup system works.
Features
The Esonic2 preamp, for lack of a better word, SUCKS! I owned this guitar for a year and sent it back for repairs on the preamp 3 times. I tried to get them to put a different preamp in but they wouldn't so I sold it and got a Takamine!
Ease of Use
Once again the Esonic 2 preamp is no good. The guitar sounds great though.
Quality
10 for the guitar itself, 0 for the electronics.
Value
Once again 10 for guitar, but 0 for Esonic electronics.
Manufacturer Support
They worked with me through all my problems and did what they could but couldn't get the electronics right.
