Electric Guitar Review

2 humbuckers. Maple top.

If you can handle everything about the Les Paul except the price, check this out. Engineers designed this modern classic with the arched top and fast neck of the best Les Pauls. It has an arched, figured curly Maple, carved top in faded sunburst finishes for that great LP look. And like all Les Pauls, features a solid glued neck joint for great sustain and stability. These guitars are built to 100% Gibson specifications. Since 1910 Epiphone has been building quality instruments and this Les Paul Standard will only enhance their great reputation. More Info!

Feature:
The features of this instrument are really good also the toggle witch from Trebble to Rythym and combination is a great feature that fits well with many styles. The hardware and components are perfect, nothing is wrong with it. It included a gator case which is worth about 120 bucks. It also included a free cord. Click here for more feature!

Quality:
This guitar is great, but has notice two things. First, the pickup switch seems cheap; it wiggles from side to side as well as up and down. Second, under the bridge, the varnish didn’t get applied there, and might you feel and see bare wood. Other than that, this guitar is great.

Sound:
Incredible sound!, the pickups are great, it has a lot better sustain than others. Being an epiphone, it still delivers that thick, gritty, heavy metal sound you expect from a les paul. Ability to play a lot of southern rock and hard rock and it able fits them both. The rhythm is nice for more bluesy sounding

Value:
For the price you can’t go wrong. This guitar is definitely worth the price, but the Les Paul 100 is just as good for eight hundred dollars. The price of everything on this site is so low. Click here for latest price!

Ease of Use:
It was very easy to get great sounds. Just turn it on and you will fall in love with it. Treble or rhythm whatever fits you. It is perfect for your personal taste of metal/ modern rock. Tone controls help to modify to your liking. Extremely playable axe that is very forgiving and the raised bridge makes it a breeze for soloing.

Desirability:
This guitar looks really good. The top is the best. Although it needed to be waxed, it is a good look. The wood grain and color on the actual guitar is 1,000 times better than the website does justice to it.

Overall:
This is a great buy for anyone interested in getting a Les Paul, This is amazing guitar for its price sounds good. Its looks great, plays amazingly!, has a real down and clear tone and is well built.

2 channels. 2 modes per channel. Footswitch included.

Boasting the same impressive features and staggering versatility of the MG100DFX combo, this awesome, 100-watt head will drive any cabinet from the Marshall range, but is best suited to the Celestine loaded MG412A (angled) and MG412B (straight) 120W 4×12 in. cabinets. Unbelievable tone, feel, and projection come as standard. More Info!

Feature:
Good features came with the footswitch which is good. And it had a lot of knobs, different set of knobs for the clean channel. The amp comes with several sockets for cables and stuff. It comes with a cable to plug it in with and comes with the foot switch which is awesome. The Footswitch could have more settings, like with the digital effects. It’s hard to dial the amount of effect u want during a gig. More Features!

Quality:
This thing is built like a tank. It is completely solid and reliable. It is also quite light.
The power amps on these babies go out more often than a cheap light bulb, like the guy said, keep your receipt, or better yet, save up for something reliable.

Sound:
The sound is really good so far. This guitar amp has a True Marshall sound. The Digital setting for a model tube amp sounds better used than without. If you’re looking for a true Marshall sound and that legend distortion, this is the amp for you.

You can tried a couple of the standard settings like metal and lead and you will really pleased with the metal setting as you play metal in a couple of bands and rock in another band.

Value:
This is great for its price. The sounds are good at a fraction of the cost of any tube amps and a lot of solid state amps. Check Latest Price!

Ease of Use:
Very easy to use, the only thing that would make it more “perfect” would be to make the “modes” footswitch able as well, like from Clean to Crunch on channel 1. The DSL also suffers from this shortcoming. If this is the magic amp for you though, it might be worth having it professionally modified to have these footswitch able.

Desirability:
This amp is beautiful; the gold looks awesome against the black of the amp. Sex appeal full stack looks cool on stage

The Marshall name has been responsible for the birth of many children. That gut. Crotch grabbing tone is going to vastly improve you chances of going way over your head in the interest in sex department. Maybe consider a shower and oral hygiene.

Overall:
Will not be searching for any other product in the future, this thing is perfect.
It’s good for your purposes (home use), but you can see that it would be a good gig item if you aren’t worried about a glitch once in a while. Or, if you’re a young person on a budget and want that Marshall name on stage behind you.
