Anybody have a epiphone archtop jazz guitar

[carverman]

If you were to try a frequensator on an better guitar with a solid top you would probably be able to hear more of the differences. You would hear more of a diff replacing the bridge (although the stock bridge has a single foot which is cool in itself)

 

Well, I dunno. My Epi Broadway Elitist has a solid carved spruce top and had the frequensator on it.

I took it off and put my own on and I like it better tone wise, and it has a ebony bridge.

 

As far as the Emp IIs go with the laminated (plywood) top..nothing wrong with that

either. The Gibson ES-335 is a formed plywood top..so is the Epi Sheraton and so

is the Gibson ES-175.

 

I played one at the Memphis factory showroom, and it had an equisite tone as well as t

he better styled and more solid tp. The only thing that set me back was the $4200US price

for an all natural/flamed maple top/sides and back.
