A no-frills tone machine! If you're lusting for a Gibson ES-335, but can't swing the lofty price, the Epiphone Dot is an attractive alternative. Like the original, the Dot features a laminated maple body, a glued-in mahogany neck, and a dot-inlaid fretboard. Its vintage pick-ups have alnico magnets (just like the vintage units), and the black finish with black hardware looks lean and mean. The only differences are the headstock shape, single volume and tone controls instead of two each, the "E" logo on the pickguard, and the bridge (which is wider than a Gibson Tune-o-matic). The Dot is well made. Its medium-sized frets are lightly polished and well shaped, the neck joint is clean, the hardware robust, and the finish is flawless. The Dot's neck is a little girthier than the ultra-slim sticks fitted to some 335's. It fills your hand nicely, and the low action makes it a delight to play. Played through a variety of amps, the Dot does a decent job of evoking the plump shimmer of a real 335. Higher gain settings yield some of the meaty rhythm colors and round, sweet lead tones associated with Larry Carlton and Robben Ford. The Dot features oversized volume pots that preserve the highs as you roll down the volume. The tone controls offer smooth, predictable treble rolloff.

Customer Reviews  Best Deal   by Cathy Worthley from Portland Maine USA, April 30, 2008 Music Background:  singer/songwriter 40 years exp “My studio dot is always the first one I grab off the rack in my when recording.
