Nice guitar! I have the epiphone aj100ce/n which is a really similar guitar. But mine is all laminate construction with a cutaway and has a piezo pickup for playing acoustic electric. I know that solid top normally has a richer tone, but even the one I have which is a laminated spruce top has a really nice tone! Epiphone definatly makes some nice guitars, a lot of which are great for beginners or intermediate players. My guitar came with a glossy neck but I sanded it down with super high grit sandpaper to give it a more matte finish which feels a lot less sticky. I also did a low action setup to make it really easy to play. A good low action setup makes a big difference. Makes it way easier to play.
What a better sir..
Morris md507 or epiphone aj220s?
In sounds and wide neck distance..because the epiphone has a neck that is rather small and slim..for big fingers it doesn't feel comfortable..
Does it plug in?
Hello Edwin. Thanks for the video.
I just found one of these models someone was getting rid of and fixed it up a little.
Do you happen to know the retail value?
Nice playing Edwin, you have lovely touch.
The gawdy plastic E logo on the pickguard has to go…
The banjo player in our bluegrass band calls my Epiphone Masterbilt my "Cheep Gibson"!!! 72 years of playing and I still get little respect.
Epiphone is now merchandising this guitar as the AJ45 Studio model.
Edmund: Ive forgotten the specs on this guitar that I once owned but used if for trading up to another guitar purposes. Youve answered my questions before. I was aware it had a solid top but had forgotten if the sides & back were solid too? Seems unlikely at the price point. I used it
to trade up to a Martin. I think the tuning machines were of questionable quality and longevity. I bought it at Sweetwater Music.
Sounds great! Very Gibson J45 sounding, I played a $2,000.00 Gibson J45 at a guitarcenter a while back and that guitar sounds way better! Although I'm pretty positive the gibson was in dire need of a string change and some hydration as well.
Edwin. I'm in favor of upgrading to the DR500.
A guy in our BG club has
a DR500..Sounds good. My latest buy was the
Seagull S6..love it
Edwin. Hello my Tagalog Amigo. I'm assuming the back and sides are laminated on the 220? I own a DR400 and its a steady player at our blue
grass genre clubs jam sessions. How do you compare the AJ220 and the AJ200 since they're both laminated? I was considering picking up a
DR500. but I might settle for the 200 or 220. Please give me your input on this issue. My pal Ray served at Subic Bay and married a lovely Filipina.
Very easy to play. I sold martin but I could’t sell this
I saw this guitar at a pawnshop , with the cutaway and electronics for $280. Will it be a good buy?
Galing nyo po manong
Very nice sounding axe. Excellent miking. I wonder if the non-VS sounds as good.
Hi edwin..why this vs model some have perloid dots on 3rd fret and some have not…
Can't quite fathom Sweetwater instructing not to unbox. Give time for Epi to acclamate to N E Texas surroundings? They instructed a 24 hour wait. Epi sat
in FedEx center, amid N E Tx temps.for some time.Then another 24 hours in my home. Whats with this? Epi sat amost 48 hours in its shipping box. I've had
several guitars shipped to me since I started buying them. Whattever Sweetwater wanted, Sweetwater got!!!!
I recieved my AJ45S (not ME model). AJ45S kis the unamplified model. Of no matter since I play bluegrass. Besides having no internal amp the tuning
machines are of plastic not nickle. Best I can tell sounds like the ME model. Guitar came from Sweetwater in Indiana via FedEx, There is a notice on box
not to unbox for 24 hours. I did this and A and G string were outta tune. Tuned it to 440 now I'm happy with my Epi Christmas gift. I also own a Martin.
Nice! You play well ???? I’m getting one of these. Thanks ????????
Hi Sir Edwin-E! Where did you buy Epiphone AJ-220S? Link?
I have too.. aj220s ..a sound very bright ????
Top solid spruce and mahagony back..very crisp..
Sir ano magandang pang acoustic guitar yung dbest sir
What's the neck profile?
Solidd!!! ????
sana makagamit din ako ng ganyan someday.. ???? More power po sainyo.
