Epiphone AJ-500RE
The Epiphone AJ-500RE received a good review and Editor's pick in this month's GP mag. They run about $699 street price. As anyone that reads my posts about acoustics knows, I want a rosewood/spruce dread, and my benchmark has always been the Martin HD-28. Has anyone tried this guitar or have any info/knowledge/thoughts to share? I know it will not sound just like a Martin, but it looks like it might be a pretty nice rig in its own right. I have never seen one of these in a store.
