  • Don't let the "Epi" fool you!

    As reviewed by JASON LOPEZ on 10/18/2011

    I just got this guitar after quite a long time searching for one of these as most guitar stores don't carry it in store...online only. Despite being drawn to the guitar by it's appointments, I did my research on it still. Most people would be quick to discard this guitar as a low budget clunker but let me tell you, it is FAR more than that. I've been playing for 17 years and I've played a lot of guitars...A LOT! This one is definitely a keeper! The Dove has a strong projection and excellent separation of frequencies. Deep lows and snappy highs. A lot of this can be credited to its Solid Spruce top and Maple back and sides. Overall, the guitar feels quite solid and has a little bit of weight to it, which I like (I hate acoustics that feel as light and flimsy as a Costco-quality instrument). If super bright isn't your thing (keep in mind, it IS a maple body), I suggest going with Phosphor Bronze strings. That's what I use on all my acoustics. I will agree, however, that the injection-molded parts have got to go! I immediately put some Martin ebony bridge pins on mine and it made a huge difference! Less tinny and more robust. Since I couldn't find one of these in a store, I almost settled for the Hummingbird...I'm glad I didn't! The Hummingbird is VERY dark and flat-sounding, IMO. If you need a great playing, great sounding and great bargain guitar, look no further than the Epi Dove. Some reviewers say its pretty close to the Gibson and I'd be inclined to agree! You won't regret it!

  • CLASSIC LOOKS FOR AWESOME PRICE

    As reviewed by wolfman1012 on 10/16/2006

    Let me start by saying I've owned numerous Epiphones and found them well worthy. They make an excellent guitar and are very cost effective. Take this model, the Epiphone Dove for example. It is the very close to the same guitar as the Gibson Dove and yet it's thousands cheaper. Solid spruce top guitar... parallogram inlays... fancy pickguard... classic looks... classic Epi sound... chrome tuners... great playability... all for less than $350. This thing will easily compare with the lower-end Martins and any Fender or Taylor that I've ever heard. Why pay for the Gibson name when you can have basically the same guitar for much less money. And you'll not be afraid to pick up this beauty and play it!

  • Great Looks - Great Sound

    As reviewed by Old Hippie on 5/29/2007

    After 30 years in hibernation...I'm playing again. This is my second Epiphone and a step up from my PR-150. New Martin strings and a little lowering of the strings by a professional is a MUST for most guitars (including this one), Epiphone offers the biggest BANG for the BUCK. Every guitar is different...even exact models. Keep looking, as I did, until you find the one that's right for you.
