this is a great guitar. i've never used it for a show but just to sit around on the porch and pick or go downtown tryin' to make a buck. it's allll good
Sound
really nice. the only way i can really describe it is twangy. i like it
Features
very nice electronics in this baby. no tuner but it has eq and all that jazz. you can make it sound however you want. also the straplock on one side is cool i guess it's a necessary because of the output jack but it still made me smile
Ease of Use
very very nice. the body isn't too big but it doesn't sound flat. the neck is really smooth and when i got mine the action was good so it was smooth sailing
Quality
it's really made well. i've bumped it around more times than i can tell and all it has to show are a couple of nicks. if you aren't very good with being careful with your guitar then this is the instrument for you
Value
great great guitar for the price. DO IT!
Manufacturer Support

The Wow Factor

Epiphone DR200CE Guitar Customer Review
Verified Purchaser
zZounds has verified that this reviewer purchased this specific product from us.
If you are looking for an inexpensive, quality guitar, then this is the guitar for you. I would gladly recommend it to any one of my friends or family.
Sound
This is an awesome sounding guitar for the price. Id easily say the best sounding guitar for under $400.
Its no Taylor but for the price you cant go wrong.
Features
I didnt like the fact that it didnt have anywhere to attach a strap,
but the electronics are great.
Ease of Use
Just tune this baby out of the box and get started. The only problem I had was that it is kind of hard to open the electronics to get to the battery. The action on the guitar was fine for me and I didnt have to adjust it at all.
Quality
This guitar is beautiful. I havnt had it for long so can't speak on the overall quality but from what i can tell this is a well built guitar, that stays true to the Epiphone name.
Value
This guitar is well worth the price I payed and I would gladly pay up to $400 or even $500
Manufacturer Support
Havnt needed it .
The Wow Factor
This guitar is simple, yet very classy. The cut-away body gives it a beautiful look.

"This is a Must Try Guitar. You'll Love It's Sound, Sryle, And Playability. Not to mention the Low Price."
I expect to have this product till I wear it out if that's possible in my lifetime. I have other accoutic electrics but I believe the search is through with this one.
Sound
With the shadow EQ you can get almost any sound you desire. I had no problem inserting the provided battery into the EQ. I am running the guitar through a Peavy PA and I Love the sound and sustain this EQ provides, It's Geat.
Features
I saw a review which said there is nowhere to hang a strap! I don't know about that guitar, (It may be an earlier version), but mine has strap anchors which came installed with guitar.
Ease of Use
There is no learning curve if you have used acoustic electric previously. The playability is Excellent and is worthy of the EPIPHONE LOGO. I did have to lower the action to my liking but that was easy. It has a memorable fingerboard usually found on much more expensive models. I have an early model Epiphone(Sheraton) electric archtop and the addition of this Epiphone Accoustic Electric I should be all set for instruments, (unless I can find a Gretch country Gentleman in pristene condition) lol.
Quality
This guitar has NO Problems except the Low Price almost scared me away from this one. All I can say is Try it, It's risk free.
Value
All I can say is it compares to instruments costing MUCH MORE.
Manufacturer Support
I haven't needed support so i van't rate it.
The Wow Factor
This guitar is in the classic dreadnought cutaway design which is my favorite. I had to have it for it's looks and the Epiphone Name.
