I ordered this Epiphone ES-335 because I couldn’t justify the price difference between the real Gibson and the Epi. Well, I am not at all disappointed.
This finish and overall build quality is great. Feels solid. Came well set-up straight out of the box. Did some adjustments to my liking, like lowering action and adjusting the truss rod. But other than that : nothing.
The look and feel
while playing is great. It feels and sounds like real Gibson to me, the pickups have that warm, wooden and sweet jazzy sound on the neck pickup that I was looking for.
If you are in the market for a great ES-335 model guitar, don’t look any further.
