Epiphone Prophecy Futura Custom FX (Floyd, EMG-81/85 Pickups) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I'll be honest. I don't think this guitar is for everyone. Other than receiving the actual guitar in a mess (de-tuned, very very very low action, ridiculous unplayable buzzing and offset bridge etc, etc....don't worry... did not buy it from this particular seller XD), After i got it fixed, it played excellent. I can't judge it too harshly because i've been playing a jackson rr-3 for 2 years, and the floyd rose on thatparticular model of guitar is completely flush with the body, and i know most floyds are not, but rather raised, above the body. Also, the pick-ups are a bit too close together for my liking, and i have a really hard time getting harmonics out of the g-string, but that's just my experience, and i would say 'because of that' but i really don't know if that's the cause. And of course it's about twice the weight of an rr3 so you get a bit sore after a while, but i can't complain about that. Other than that, it has a nice fast neck, reasonably slim, plays nice, but pick-ups seem a bit over-responsive.

Godin Montrea Chambered & Carved 2-Voice Jazz Guitar (Natural HG) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)this guitar has nice tone, very good quality for the price range, if i have to choose between Gibson or Godin, i have to pick this one!!
very jazzy/blues sounds especially if you change the stings to 11 or 12 gauge
the acoustic pickup is very useful, you could balance the sound with both electric and acoustic and produce wide variety color.
I would recommend this guitar to anyone!!

Agile AL-2000 BK Gold HW Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is an exceptional guitar for the price.I have been playing for nearly 15 years, and own several guitars.After some research, I purchased this guitar for a friend for his birthday, to set him on the path.I have read plenty of info on Agile's, but I have never seen one in person.The overwhelming positive feedback on every guitar forum I have visited puts the Agiles on a pedestal, so I admit it was mostly out of curiosity that I went for it. All I can say is, it lives up to the hype.

I received it intending to set it up and dial it in for him, but was pleasantly surprised to find that it needed no set up at all, just a quick tune and it was ready to go. Brand loyalty though, I had to re-string it with DR 9's. I plugged it in to my Peavey Classic 30, and about an hour later I was convinced that I should have spent a couple hundred more than I did.

As Les Paul copies go, there a plenty out there to choose from.But I don't think you'll be able to match the quality of this guitar to anything in it's price range.I have a '94 Gibson LP Classic Copper, and the Agile easily ranks along with it for quality and sound, and the Black with gold construction looks great on a stand in front of my fireplace.Needless to say, my friend thought I paid much more for it than I did, and I almost wanted to keep it a secret :-) Now I understand why Agile has such a reputation.

Seriously, if you are looking for a first guitar, or a backup.You really can't go wrong with this one.

Ibanez XPT700 Xiphos Red Chameleon Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have been playing for around 9 years now, this guitar is one of my favorite guitars to play. It has smooth action and playability. The paint job is amazing more over the green and blue paint jobs. Its comfortable for sitdown play for me. (I play with the bridge joint resting on my leg.) The pick ups are very nice... They are dimarzio, would you expect anything less from them? The edge tremolo is very nice the smoothness of a khaler but the action of a floyd rose! All in all if you are into metal or hard rock music this guitar is a perfect choice.

Product Description:
The Ibanez XPT700 is a neck-thru constructed guitar that just screams metal from the first moment you see it. With a deep double-cutaways, 4-fin body shape and beveled edges, it's also comfortable to play. Chameleon finishes change colors with the light. Two DiMarzio U.S.A made pickups provide tons of clear, powerful tone, and an Edge III bridge combined with a locking nut gives you killer dive bombing without the intonation hassles. Sharktooth inlays and top-shelf hardware complete the look.

Dean Z 79 Guitar, Set Neck, Classic Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Don't buy this guitar. Unless you want to be blown away by it's sheer beauty, tone, lightness, and slick playability. When I first took it out of the box all I wanted to do was stare for a long period of time. It's magnificent. And when I played it I was not disappointed. I want more. I want it in white with black binding and another copy of this one for backup. This guitar is my baby. I cant believe its this cheap. Must be a typo.. lol. Actually I take that back. Must be a DEAN!

(p.s. I was actually sorta serious when I said don't buy this guitar because I'm selfish and there are limited quantities and I want them for myself but what the heck. Buy it. Love it. ROck out.

The Dean '79 Series
1979 was a great time for Dean Guitars. Some of Rocks' greatest players played Dean to include: Kansas, ZZ Top, Heart, The Doobie Brothers, Triumph,The Cars, Pantera, Iron Maiden, Def Leppard--the list goes on.Dean Guitars builds these beauties to the original specs of the original 1979 Deans, which are now collectibles on the open market. The '79 series uses the Series 2 headstock, larger than the time capsule, and has the same look and feel as their predecessors of the seventies.The '79 series is available in finishes originally offered in the 1979 Dean catalog, including: Cherry Sunburst, Braziliaburst, and Black with white binding--and the prices are just as striking.Mahogany Body with Maple Top
As with the original models, Dean uses a mahogany body for its contemporary '79s.Mahogany is a common choice for electrics, dependably delivering a warm, full tone with plenty of punch and sustain. The maple top focuses the mahogany tone, imparting clarity to your notes/chords, and a little extra high-end bite.Set Neck Construction
The '79 ML features a set mahogany neck, which imparts all the well-known advantages of that style: a warmer overall tone with extended low-end response, wicked sustain, and easy upper-fret access (enhanced even further by the '79s cutaways). The 24-3/4-inch scale neck features a rosewood fingerboard with abalone dot inlays.Dean Humbucker Pickups
To capture the biting tones of vintage Deans, the company includes two of its standard humbuckers, in black-and-white "zebra" style for looks as good as the sounds. And what to expect tonally? These pickups should provide more than enough bite for modern styles, along with plenty of low-end and midrange definition. The standard three-way selector allows bridge, neck, or a combination. Each pickup gets a volume pot, and they share the tone control.Grover Tuners
If you play guitar then you know what this means--solid, dependable tuning from the industry standard. These guitar machines are a triumph in engineering and style, with a gear ratio of 14:1, perfect gear meshing, and zero backlash and slippage. The gear box has a special lubricant for lifetime, trouble-free service.

Tune-o-Matic Bridge
The '79's Tune-o-Matic bridgewith string-thru body design provides even more sustain, along with precise intonation for your tuning preference. The classic v-shaped plate mirrors the headstock wings for some nice vintage Dean style.

JAZZ GUITAR SINGLE CUT CUSTOM Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Who is going to pay $1200.00 for a no-name guitar with no information about the it's composed of?
I'm guessing that this is a Chinese company and that they don't have anyone to right copy in English.
Still, the lack of information in this ad is inexcusable.
