Epiphone Dot Studio Worn Cherry 2005 Semi-Hollow Electric Guitar


Here for sale we have an Epiphone Dot Studio in Worn Cherry finish. Crafted in China in 

2005 this guitar features a set-neck construction comprising a Laminated Maple body, Maple neck and 22 fret Rosewood fingerboard. The guitar is equipped with Black hardware including a Tune-O-Matic bridge and StopBar tailpiece, along with a set of Jinho Rotomatic tuning machines. A pair of Epiphone humbucking pickups are installed which are wired to a 3-way toggle switch, master volume and a master tone control. 


The Maple neck plays well, with a profile that could be described as a 'D' shape feeling slender and comfortable in the hand, offering easy fretting in any register. The Satin finish to the rear feels pleasant to the touch and aids easy transitions up and down the neck, whilst the Rosewood fingerboard with its 12" radius provides a durable and nicely smooth and consistent playing surface right the way up to the 22nd fret. The semi-hollow construction makes this guitar easy on the shoulders on long gigs, and the smooth lines of the body ensure that this is a comfortable guitar to play either standing or seated.


The semi-hollow body design provides a warm, natural resonance that adds depth and dimension to the guitar's tone. The centre block helps to reduce any unwanted feedback and resonance, resulting in a more defined sound. The Epiphone humbuckers provide a warm, full-bodied tone with a balanced frequency response. They offer a rich, clear sound that is well-suited for a wide range of musical styles and handle distortion really well, providing a huge array of tones that are suitable for a wide range of musical styles and genres. When driving the amp, the tone is rich and crunchy, lending itself well to blues. A versatile package of tones, especially with the individual volume and tone controls for each pickup.
