  1. Haven't seen you on the forum lately. Always looked forward to your posts. And what's with the "banned" tag under member title?

  2. I don't hear any significant differences, at least through my PC's speakers.
  3. Gearhead, you made no mention of control settings.
  4. Zackly!!!! All those little mods that yield subtle, if any, tone "improvement", are often probably less than the simple turn of a knob.
  5. I have serious doubts that anyone can answer that question with authority. First off, Epiphone guitars are manufactured in different factories and/or in different countries. And, like many manufacturers, Epiphone factories probably source strings from more than one supplier. You mentioned D'Addario, and there has been a problem with counterfeits, which D'Addario is addressing currently. They are said to be inferior product. If you're experiencing breakage with strings from multiple brands, I tend to think the "problem" is not with the strings themselves, but something else.
  6. DMC: Unfortunately, the wiring, pots, switch and jack seem to be weak spots in Epiphone electrics, which is why many DIY owners will replace all of it right off the bat. Then, there are owners like me who, while aware of the situation, take a "if it's not broke don't fix it" attitude. In my case, for example, the jack ground broke off because of the typical loosening jack. So, I replaced it with a quality Switchcraft unit, instead of re-soldering and reusing the crappy stock jack.
