Members stomias Posted February 27, 2012 Members Share Posted February 27, 2012 Plays and sounds great. Intonation is amazing. I can't believe that a guitar like this costs so little. I've paid more for a single pickup than I paid for this axe. http://www.fileswap.com/dl/r5zICc5G8/sgtb.mp3.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members photon9 Posted February 27, 2012 Members Share Posted February 27, 2012 A Dot yes? Lovely grain! Congrats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members stomias Posted February 27, 2012 Author Members Share Posted February 27, 2012 Yes, dot deluxe. Had a Gibson in the '60's. Sold it in '72 for $400. Paid half of that for the Epi and it is as nice as the Gibson that would now cost about $10,000! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members newbuilder Posted February 27, 2012 Members Share Posted February 27, 2012 Nice! I love my cheap semi hollow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sxyryan Posted February 27, 2012 Members Share Posted February 27, 2012 The dot's are some of Epi's best guitars IMHO. I had a Riviera P93, and the only reason I got rid of it was because I couldn't get used to the shape of it. Otherwise they are fine guitars. HNGD!

Members PunkKitty Posted February 27, 2012 Members Share Posted February 27, 2012 Very nice. I have a Dot Studio and a P93 Riviera. Both are great guitars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Bluesidae Posted February 27, 2012 Members Share Posted February 27, 2012 The red looks awesome. Dots are awesome bang for their buck. Would love to have a Gibson, but I have mouths to feed! Just got my deluxe in trans brown: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the strange thing about the vintage market; guitars that would be considered dogs even today are still worth tens of thousands of dollars. Congrats on the new guitar again!

Would love to have a Gibson, but I have mouths to feed! Just got my deluxe in trans brown: I love that finish If you don't mind me asking, can you tell me when Epiphone made those? I looked up trans brown epiphone dot deluxe on google and not much information popped up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bluesidae Posted February 28, 2012 Members Share Posted February 28, 2012 Thanks! I did a search and found nothing. Wanted a red like Stomias but the brown is really growing on me. The neck is a bit bigger than most dots. The action is low... Makes for afast neck. The tone (thru my Swart) is rich. Anyway, it is a 2000 Korea. I am not the original owner but it was purchased at Long and Mcuade (Canada) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
