Epiphone FT-100CE Acoustic/Electric Guitar (EEFTVSCH1) - Vintage Sunburst - Only at Best Buy

Guitar has a beautiful tone to it, and is also a very good looking guitar. I am learning right now, but it feels good in the hands. I really like the sound of it, but I don't have years of experience so it may just be music to my ears.I have another Electric guitar I bought with the game "Rocksmith" to learn, and I plugged this into the game and it works, though the game keeps telling me the volume is low on the electronics....there is no controls on this guitar for the electriconics (Tone volume etc)...I docked it 1 Star for that.

This guitar is poorly built and arrived unplayable. Whoever installed the saddle at the factory, installed it so high that the strings were so far away from the fretboard that it was unplayable. The same individual over-tightened and stripped one of the screws holding the G string machine head (tuner) to the back of the headstock making it impossible to stay in tune because the G string machine head wobbles when you try to tune it. It's going to cost me $130 to have a Luthier repair the G string machine tuner stripped screw hold and remove, sand and replace the too high saddle. I spent 1/2 hour on hold with their call centre located in India (the agent could barely speak English and despite the fact that I stated that the guitar was purchased as a gift, the best that the call centre Agent could do was to tell me to send it back).

This review WOULD have been a 5 star review except for one small thing::: Upon receiving the guitar, I opened up the packaging, and started tuning it ----- One string did not tune very well. The B String. Is there a special reason the B String is apparently actually a G string instead? When I tighten up the "B" string too much the tuning knob gets too tight and resets at a lower pitch as to not break the "B" String ------ so what I appear to have here is TWO G Strings in string positions 2 and 3 where position 2 should have been a B string. It's a great, great guitar it seems, wonderful and beautiful ----- but I had to give this review 4 stars because the B String would only tune as far as G. The B String is a G string. I need a new string. I plugged in an amp and the electronics work great. Wonderful. GREAT GUITAR ------- just the one string I have to deal with now. Is there a special reason why this guitar would come with two G-Strings? I am new guitar so maybe I don't know everything --- It just seems to me that there really should be a B String here.
