EEF13 Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 I am having a hard time deciding on which Masterbilt to get. The options are: DR-500MCE DR-500ME EF- 500R I know that Alex Lifeson plays/played the EF 500R so it must be good but I am curious about the other ones. Which one would you recommend? I know the DR ones have more electronic options going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mixeasy Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 In case you haven't seen the link I posted over at HCAG.... http://acapella.harmony-central.com/showthread.php?2874320-FS-Epiphone-Masterbilt-EF-500M I don't know this fella but, he seems to be a well-respected seller. Always has really good gear for sale. Seems like a fair deal to me. I've never warmed to the DR models (too blocky-looking for me.) Love my AJ 500RE.

I need an electric acoustic though. Are Acoustic guitar pickups any good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mixeasy Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 It looks nice. I need an electric acoustic though. Are Acoustic guitar pickups any good? Technology has come a long way over the years with AG pickups. Lots of variations and combinations thereof from L.R. Baggs, K&K, Fishman, Sunrise, etc. I'm using the poorly received Esonic2 system that came with my AJ. Apparently, I have the only "properly-working" Esonic2 system in the world...lol. It sounds absolutely wonderful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hummmm...I don't know then man, I myself wouldn't buy a guitar unless I could play it and check it our really good first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
