This is a great guitar from the price. I got being nervous about the sound quality for this cheap, but that was no problem. The original strings had an odd tone for this guitar and after i changed them the guitar sounded great. It is louder then i expected, you can hear it upstairs when i play in the basement. The only bad part about the guitar is that it doesnt have a cut out so it is hard to reach the higher frets. Overall this is a great guitar for the price.
Designed in America, made in Indonesia I purchased this in the Vintage Sunburst color due to the fact that this guitar is modeled alot like the Epiphone Texan that Paul McCartney used to write "Yesterday." Nice fat sound, really bright, but not to bright for blues, I immediately switched the strings to Martin Marquis Mediums for a darker, bluesier tone and to sound more natural. Perfect, I wish I would have started out on this guitar. Nice beefier neck for beginners, nicely spaced frets, not the best for high scale acoustic playing, seeing as how its not a cutaway, but perfect for a late night jammer or a weekend learner booming away on chords, simple melodies, and blues notes. I have recieved many compliments on its sound and beauty, the laminate is easily cleaned. The tuners are not the best in the world, especially for one who is going to be playing live frequently, but a good string stretch and two daily tune ups will keep it just fine. Excellent piece from Epiphone.
As I walk through Guitar Center, there are always hundreds of guitars. Guitars I wouldn't play with a ten foot pick, guitars that are way out of my price range, and guitars that I drool over, waiting for a little extra spending cash. Occasionally, while I wait, I find a hidden gem. This guitar fits the bill, and has become the newest addition to my collection. I followed the suggestions of many of these reviews, and replaced the stock strings with Elixir Polyweb medium gauge almost immediately. The DR-100 sounded pretty good with the originals, but rang out amazing tone for a cheap guitar with the elixirs. There is a little bit of string buzz when jamming a bit heavier, but all in all this is a beauty. I have had it about two weeks now, and occasionally have to tune it back up about half a step, but I'm blaming the new strings and changing weather for that one. When I first opened it, I did find a piece of sandpaper still inside the body. I didn't actually hear any noise alteration, and only found it because one string gave a little trouble releasing from the body. I recommend this guitar highly.
