  1. I own two Epis, including one that I just acquired (yet to post pics!). Build quality and finish on the older one (a Dot, made by Samick I think) is immaculate and has stood the test of time (20yrs so far). The new one is not as good - build quality great, but finishing not 100%. I am very pleased with both purchases - the old one because it's beautifully made, and the new one because no-one else makes anything quite like a Wildkat at anywhere remotely close to the Epi price. Having played several Epis over the last few months in my search for a new guitar, I found they varied a fair bit. The best made and finished one I played was a Wilshire which is not by any means an expensive guitar. Try them, and if you buy an Epi don't get it delievered to you - pick it up from a shop where you can try it (check it, have it set up properly etc) before you take it home.
  2. Apparently recent Epi serial numbers don't work with the Dater Project. What about a Wildkat with the number 1007206045? Various sites say different things, but the most logical seems to be 10 = 2010, 07 = July, 2 = factory code, 06045 = production sequence. Any thoughts?
  3. An Epi Alleykat with the serial number 00040120. According to the dater project, Korean made in 2000. Sound about right?
