"Get yours before they stop production"
Sound
You cannot beat this guitar for the money. If you're a gigging musician, why take a $2500 Gibson out in a bar, when this one sounds and looks the same.
Ease of Use
Once properly setup and change the strings, the thing almost plays itself
Quality
This guitar was assembled by Samick in their new state of the art facility overseas. Most items coming from the new Samick facility sound great.
The Wow Factor
It's the King's guitar people. Girls wanted Elvis and guys wanted to be Elvis. That's appeal.

"A guitar that would make the king proud!"

Get one while you can. These will definitely be collectable. Once the average joe catches on to these... they will be all gone!
Sound
This guitar can hold it's own. Most of the guitars that have some novelty attacahed to them are strictly for "looks" I find after picking them up, but this guitar is actually built well and sounds great. It plays and sounds like the other J-200's in the current Epiphone line up.
Features
I cannot believe the attention to the inlay detail - not alot of filler around the pearl. That is what makes this guitar! Best of all, there is a solid spruce top on this model. Also, the tuners are the keystone knob versions that you find on a les paul, not the ones shown in the picture. I was very happy when I saw this - they look so much better on this guitar. Also, the vintage tint on the body is excellent - they got it right!
Ease of Use
It is a jumbo, so some may find the large body a little.... "large" at times. But, that is what gives it it's pronounced bottom end. The neck is nice and staight out of the box and the action is just right. After a little fine tuning, it feels like an old friend!
Quality
The wood used in the sides, back, neck - all good quality and the joints inside are clean as can be. Fret work is well done. Inlay is gerat. Overall - signs of a well built guitar. However, I will add that the on board preamp was a little hard to get going - I think that the batteries were not inserted properly. Pickup sounds good - the on board tuner is a blessing! Time will tell!
Value
I cannot believe the quality for a mere $500 bucks. I know that this is a chunck of change these days, but, this seems to be worth every penny!
Manufacturer Support
Never dealt with Epiphone, just registered the guitar with them online. ZZoounds have been a pleasure to deal with thus far.
The Wow Factor
This guitar goes way beyond the novelty of what you might think. It is a seious playing guitar. There is a reason that it was the "king's" favorite!
