Epiphone Review: Demon

History:

Purchase: I bought this guitar at Guitar Center. It was on sale for 179.00 with a suggested retail of 499.00. After playing it for a while and comparing it to my SG, I had to have it.

What I Like About This Epiphone Demon: I loved the metallic red finish, the dual humbuckers (which sound beautiful) the new string thru body, and awesome Flying V Style.

What I Do NOT Like About The Epiphone Demon: I don't like the positions of the cord jack. It is inside of the V on the butt of the guitar. It makes it kinda awkward when you have the strap on. Also the volume knob is very close to the high e string. I sometimes hit it when i'm playing solos.

Epiphone Demon Quality Rating: This guitar has a solid body, bolt on, rosewood neck, die cast tuners and nice finish. It's overall quality is exceptional for the money.

Review Summary: I would highly recommend this guitar. It plays and sounds very much like my Gibson SG. The sustain is beautiful and the humbuckers rock and they rock hard. Buy it, you'll love it.

Rating of this Epiphone product: 5
