But let me ask you this- why are you concerned about the set-up anyway? You can set the thing up anyway you like when you get it. What you need to be concerned with is the overall build/quality of the guitar. And the return policy. I mean it may have a perfect set-up for you (the way you like it). But that doesn't mean it's not going to be a POS. Fret wear, pups, tuners, all these things are way more important IMO. And again, the return policy.

i Can Tuna Guitar Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 Those 12th fret measurements are quite close to the nominal specs given by Epiphone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to give it a full set up anyhow just wanted to know what the guy had done to it, and if he had set it up well. Then I was thinking he would of known how to look after it as well.
