Bought one used from Lark Street Music. This is before Gibson opened the Qingdao Factory and was still contracting to Samick and made in Korea. One $$$ short cut was to not have the frets glued in. With a pressed formed top, the wood never matures/opens up over time. A pretty dead guitar compared to the original U.S. made Epiphone I played in '67-72.It had a weird bout as well, getting bigger/deeper but still no tone as an acoustic. Sold it at a loss and never looked back.
How Many Ply Was Used in the 2011 Epiphone ES 345? NECK SIZE?

Any idea? Mine doesn't resonate much . Also, any idea as to the size of the neck? I've read that it's slim taper 'D' but it's chunkier than that.
