walterlane Posted April 25, 2014 Posted April 25, 2014 For many months, I've been thinking about getting a Dot Studio. I've seen it on the web in ads, photos and videos and really liked what I'd seen and read. So a couple days ago, I finally went to a store to take a real look and bought a new Dot Studio for my upcoming 60th birthday. When I saw it in the store, Guitar Center, Durham, NC, I was amazed at its striking beauty. The photos and videos I'd seen on the web in no way do it justice; the appearance is awesome! I played it in the store and was delighted at its terrific tone. I really like the simplicity of operation using just one volume and one tone control with a pickup selector switch; I usually use both pickups. I can quickly adjust the volume using just the one control. And I really like the big knobs; they turn quickly and are easy to grasp. It was a hundred dollars less than another model I was also looking at but that is not why I bought it. I just simply liked it better than the other, more expensive model. After getting it home and setting the action, I was so pleased at how well it played. I'm glad I finally got around to getting it!
crust Posted April 25, 2014 Posted April 25, 2014 Dot Studio, you don't say. Love mine, great guitar. Dig it. Got a picture you might post ?
walterlane Posted April 25, 2014 Author Posted April 25, 2014 Dot Studio, you don't say. Love mine, great guitar. Dig it. Got a picture you might post ? No pics as yet. I don't even have a camera. It's of course a gloss cherry finish with a deep luster. I don't see how this guitar is sold at this price, but I'm glad it is.
crust Posted April 25, 2014 Posted April 25, 2014 That's OK, here's a pic of some of mine , including my Dot Studio, along with a few others (not all) of my "herd" lol I rotate the playing order, and pick 3 or 4 different ones to play every day Some day, I'll take another pic with the 2 other Epiphone's (black pearl Riviera P93 and EL-00), that aren't shown.

Some people are just natural-born over achievers.

They are like a drug you can not stop buying them . Ask Crust .
