Ok it's a black Epiphone junior model. So it's a low end, but thats all i can afford. It was either this or a squier, the squier was 150 this was 99 but if i got this i could also get a a DS-1 pedal. So i went with this. i can however return both this and the pedal and get the squier. So far it seems nice. only one pickup though

Yeah, Squiers suck. Good choice too. Epiphone is a good brand if you're starting out or low budget.

Ok, i have an epiphone amp too, its my bro's. I like this guitar, i just wish it had another pickup, the actions also a little low so occasionally i get a small buzz, but i use and amp so it doesnt really make that much of a difference.

This pedal kicks a** too man, i want a phaser.

but heres what sucks lol, earlier in the day i got a HUGE hard plastic pick for my bass, not knowing id be getting a guitar that day. But when it come to picks for a guitar i prefer fender thin picks.

Yeah, I need a new guitar. My action is too low so I get this horrible ringing noise through my amp. I didn't know Epiphone made amps... eek And I use my fingers to pick when I play my bass.

I usually use my finger on bass too, i jsut like to have a pick for it incase i feel like using one. I played jesus of suburbia on bass the other day and ive never had callouses like this. But yea, it sucks cuz i'm like a beginner on guitar again, i hit the wrogn strings, and im not fast and s**t.

Of course they do, Basically just cheaper versions of all the Gibson amps (sortof like how they make cheap versions of the guitars!). The tube amps are pimpin'.

Why would you want a Squier over anything? Sorry, just my taste in guitars, I'm not very fond of Squiers. Also, I wouldn't want to trade a guitar AND pedal for another guitar.

And also, do you know what kind of pickup you have on the guitar?

High end squiers are quite nice, actually. Mainly the Squier Jagmaster.

yeah well im pretty sure that they offered him a shiny red affinity Strat...or something...

I played a squire , a friends one and my cousins one ( my cousin hasnt gotten gotten another electric cause he moved on to classical)... an well weirdly enough Ive never heard one through an amp...all I know is that I didint like the feel of the neck...

Epiphone is a good brand and they make high-end instruments, but of course yours isn't one of them. Don't be ashamed just because it's epiphone and not gibson.

I have an epiphone tube amp...but I wouldn't go so far to call it pimpin'. I like vox too much.

High end squires are teh nice.

Has anyone seen the Tele Hollowbody that they do? It got a great review in a magazine that I read.
