The guitar itself is very nice for the money. Good looking finish, good amount of weight, decent tuners. Only problem I had was the nut by where you plug in the cable coming loose. Kinda sucks when you're trying to show off in front of friends and the thing falls off. Very minor issue and nothing worth really considering, just my .02.

Very nice quality finish, Vintage sunburst is awesome. Pickups are pretty good, although I wish they had was a little more bite. Then again, based on the price, these are DARN good pickups

Well worth every penny, especially if you are looking for a good quality beginner guitar. Nice feel, plays nicely.

I got mine for christmas a few months ago and have fallen in love. Stays in tune, plays nicely, pickups are good, sounds good, and feels great. I would reccomend replacing the nut with a nicer one (I got one made of bone), asides from that, everything else is good as is. DEFINITELY would reccomend to friends interested in starting out.

Started giving lessons as soon as I got it.  It has already paid for itsel, if you have the cash and I did this one won't break ya and is great,...stays in tune true neck and not as heavy as a true paul.  Highly recomend for anyone who doent have a lot of money but needs a good one!!!!!!  Kudos MF thanx again

The quality of this instrument is fantastic!

I can't say enough about the outstanding value of this deal.

This guitar will blow you away, both from a quality standpoint and playability standpoint.  What a beautiful instrument!  I've played more expensive guitars that do not perform to the level of this one!  I would recommend this to anyone, from a beginner to an expert guitarist.  Way to go Gibson/Epiphone!!!!

I have the Special series 1 Great Neck and great sound through a good tube amp. Many thanks to the Gibson engineers.  A secret guitar. Although many lead guitarists use it on stage.

The bridge is not so good, its wobbly,  but If you can get the intonation set, it will play like a dream. My suggestion get a good bridge and good tuners The Wood guitar is a Gibson secret great guitar. I love it. I can play for hours on end.

I guarontee youll like it

Sheesh This guitar can be found for a low price if its a kit with cheap amp price. Its a total bargain and a sleeper. Buy it Set it up right Save it from the dumpster.

Thousands of these Indonisian Chineese guitars have been thrown into the dumpsters. Its a sad state.

These are Great guitars Fun to play when set up correctly. Bad bridge and bad tuners, but if you buy one and put new tuners and New bridge and a Soapbar pickup in it its totally a great guitar worth a lot more in  playabilty and sound.

Its even great as it is, the hummers are deep and rich.

Just watch the bridge its wobbly and intonation goes out easily with every tuning, Better to buy a good bridge. You got .040-.060 slop on the stock bridge sure sure.

This is one of Gibsons forgotten Angels. Just set it up right.

Finally unpacked the epi and gave her a go. Beautiful dark wine color. Much richer color than pictured. Neck fit and finish excellent. Fretboard edges meticulous. One fret not pressed down perfectly but no impact on playability and action.

Couple of very minor cosmetic imperfections but otherwise very sound. Really nice pickups and pots. Tone control that actually does something. Most from China don't do anything until you're all the way down on the pot. Excellent deal.
