Epiphone is a company that you can count on and be sure that they know their job, and that's building great instruments. Another model from Epiphone named ES-295 outperforms and outranks sound-wise many other models in its price range. It's well worth the price.

Nobody argues that ES-295 has the most complete set of features that outshine most of the other guitar models in its price range. Epiphone equipped this guitar with most features any musician would like to see in a guitar, so you may rest assured that ES-295 is in the top of its league. With a matching price, this guitar is an excellent choice!

Epiphone made a guitar with an astonishing sound. ES-295 is one great sounding instrument. A lot of musicians will agree that it plays well in many different musical genres, and is easy to set up, but most of all, fun to play. Its tone has unique tonal characteristics that are easily adjustable to fit your playing needs.

Ready to play out of the box, Epiphone's ES-295 is easy to set it up even more precise than usual, thanks to great hardware pieces it has built in. Handling and playing this kind of guitar is a pure joy as it stays in tune 90% of the time, regardless of the level of usage. It feels reliable and it really is, as Epiphone put great deal of time and effort to produce such a good-looking guitar that is behaving well, as ES-295 does.

ES-295 is one of the finest in its class. Epiphone created a guitar that is both durable, and a guitar that performs well in studio, on stage and while rehearsing/practicing. Quality hardware and finish are a guarantee that this instrument will last long and serve you well, if you take the usual care for your instrument, as you should.
