Epiphone Dot Studio Demo

[DustyCowdog]

Hahahaha...this dude knows how to have a good time. Well done and dig your blues!

[EPI6fingers]

I stoped buying gibson 4 years ago. Now I buy epiphone. Todays epiphones are top professional quality way underpriced works of Art! I would never choose gibson over todays epiphones!

[pmay222]

not a bad demo...but what i REALLY like is the mike stand with all the picks stuck on like a pro....... lol...nice one..!

[MH5tube]

Beautiful instrument.

[MrGasson]

you're english right? where did you find this in white?

[messybluesboy371]

Beautiful guitar man! And great playing!

[ZackMyslinski]

Hey Tiny Tim, do you think you could sing us your song!!

[wpc33]

You're so good, I left the vid on while surfing other sites. I forgot I wan't listening to an album.

[legniak1]

Please.This is not really a rock guitar, more blues/jazz but there is no reason you cant play rock on this thing. It just wont have the deep LP sound, Epi really do a good job on all there gear,had a Epi LP custom and was awesone

[ccslax6]

Lol I recognized that jam track almost immediately, boss loop pedal? It got stuck in my head argh

[wwwsuneowwww]

rionel messi

[effinshut]

Oh boy, you look a little bit too British. But hey, you can play like The King himself.

[MitcheruUSA62]

I'd love to get one of these in white!! Great playing!

[MitcheruUSA62]

I'd love to get one of these in white!!

[FranklyMyDarling]

I think that all the dots are semi hollow, i.e. have a huge bit of wood running through them

[pzolsky]

named after dot cotton

she plays one on stage with a fag-end dangle a la keith and ronnie

[laxer94]

Such a great guitar. The stock strings were good. And I recently put some EB 11's on it. (forgot the name) and it sounds just like any 600 guitar.

[60spastlife]

AWESOME playing.

[royalknight2]

@JMeasmer

yeah, it should be called the epiphone dot with no dots.

how could they...

[Wonderyourlips]

What is the pedal?

[jagboy93]

DUDE i hated that loop on my loop station!, i could never think of anything else to play! ahaha by the way i have the same guitar! how do you reduce the action! for the past two years it was cool then one day i started changing the strings and i was twisting the little wheels on the bridge! and now my action is fucked?

[NetiruM]

Are you satisfied of this guitar?Can you play also hard rock easily on this?:D i have to buy a new guitar and i'm really interested in this ,I play hard rock is it good for thath kind of music?Or only for blues?

[laxer94]

@NetiruM It works great. I play in a band and we play songs like Asking Alexandria, Blessthefall, and A Day to remember and other bands of the such and it sounds just right.

[Juicefani11]

I have always been thinkin' why is this called The Dot!!! Someone please tell me!!!

[HooDwin12]

@Juicefani11 it has a dot inlay on the fretboard?? o.O hahah :P

[Juicefani11]

@HooDwin12 But so has many other guitars, and why aren't they called The Dot XD

[drfeelgoodlanzarote]

Great sound and it looks very cool in white. Its on Thomann.de for only €222. That seems like a very good deal. Thanks for the vid.

[theBabystache]

What extra equipment were you using besides the guitar and amplifier? I really like the sound your getting.

[trytojustify]

ooh like for british accent :D

[Kangaxxter]

stopped watching when you called it a hollow body. it's semi-hollow unlike most hollowbodies.

[psygodnp]

this has one tone and one volume.

does that control both pickups? i.e. why does the normal dot have four (what can't you do on this one?)

[syncosync]

no buzz? played four in a store and all crap!

[MPHtheband]

I want a white one 2 but here at Germany u get only the red, ebony and natural ones:(((( Just me use some career The Rod signature Model !

[jorghad6]

i'm thinking of buying one of these and putting a seymour duncan invader pickup at the bridge and a gibson burstbucker at the neck

[Zkrudriverz]

what country u from?

[overoath123]

that's a great sounding guitar. I'd love to get one.... may just be my next guitar. either that or a Danelectro 59 reissue shorthorn.

[copperblu]

alnico 'Vee' ... hahaha.

[SPAZZYHOBO]

I notice the RHCP poster in the background ;)

[scottishsanny]

try tuning it first...lol

[mrsweettater]

I have a worn, brown one that I play on the street and it is a work horse! I played it for an hour in a light drizzle and the tips just poured in!

[tomleech92]

it looks awful

[yaymike23]

i love this guitar but i have to wait till christmas to MABEY get one and so i wanted to know something. is this a larg guitar or is the body smaller than traditional hollows?

[mrhaney95]

its prettty big.

[masher2k9]

I like!

[thatkidisatool]

I dont!

[masher2k9]

u don't like the dot??

[poniran]

very great man..

[darksoule01]

killer playing man

[blink913]

where did u get it ive been looking for a white one

[StreakingInJanuary]

There's one on ebay, go bid on it! It has SD Pearly Gate Humbuckers in it! GO BID!!!

[MFJord1]

could you gig with that guitar?

[drummerjackn]

you can gig with any decent guitar...:S

[JMcG92]

You can gig with almost any guitar if it is set up properly. The only problem I have ever found with cheap guitars is that the electronics are poor. New, even high quality electronics would only cost about $30 so it's a great way to turn a cheaper guitar into a perfectly playable (and giggable) instrument.

[StreakingInJanuary]

You can gig with any guitar, if you have a nice amp. I use my Laney TF200 for practice and gigs of 50-90 people.

[ChillpointNews]

Damn, I didn't know you could get that jazzy/bluesy sound out of the Dot Studio, most people who plays this guitar plays it for the rock sounds and completly rapes the guitar to pieces... :<

Nice playing indeed!

[stey2k]

im gonna get one of these i think in cherry! Everybody plays this jazz shit on youtube (im not having a go at your playing by the way!) and i really hate it, its all the same, boring and repetitive.

Need someone to do a rock demo on one these, get some oasis on or somethin!

[blink913]

hey look at my channel ive got a couple covers with this guitar and its all rock

[GordoBrown1022]

Jazz same??? boring??? repetitive??? Jazz is easily one of (if not the most) versatile genre of music. I disagree with your statement....

I have a Epiphone Dot and it is a versatile, inexpensive guitar, but I mainly mine for jazz and blues. Plays like a 1000 dollar guitar.

[theCRAZZYswede]

@GordoBrown1022 well it looks like a 10 dollar guitar...

[GordoBrown1022]

@theCRAZZYswede I take it you haven't played one.... Judge a book by it's cover and you may be surprised. How does it even look like a 10 dollar guitar? I think it looks great.

[PlatypusVomit]

@theCRAZZYswede

I actually have a 10 dollar guitar, and this looks nothing like it. I got the $10 guitar from a garage sale, and the previous owner had managed to split the body around the ass end, and the finish is all dinged up, and the bridge saddle is a homemade nigger-rigged piece of aluminum flatbar. This Dot looks a hell of a lot better.

[shutdownthefed]

@GordoBrown1022 jazz was only good when it first came out and was very creative and fresh. Watch guys on youtube now playing jazz, they all sound exactly the fucking same, same exact licks, same exact tone, etc etc

[Socioistic]

@shutdownthefed

If you go to Youtube to hear the representative sound of any genre, you're a complete twit. Listen to the blues he's playing in this; it's completely generic, from the backing drum/bass to his playing. Listen to anyone show off the "Metal" or "rock" sounds a guitar is good for, and they all play the exact same chords with the same tones with the same phrasing and so on.

So fuck you, jazz kicks ass.

[shutdownthefed]

@Socioistic why don't you go suck kenny g's dick then you elevator music lovin' bitch!

[Socioistic]

@shutdownthefed

I just damn might.

[GordoBrown1022]

@shutdownthefed Okay... You obviously don't listen to much jazz music. So, I will refer you to two different jazz players. A classic player named Tal Farlow. And then immediately go listen to a New guy in the jazz genre named Kurt Rosenwinkel. And after that, You can come back and ATTEMPT to make an arguement about how they sound the same... Shouldn't be too difficult, right?

[carfreak35041]

I've been playing acoustic since november and I am going to buy an electric soon. If I get an electric I'm going to learn to play a lot of jazz,but i still want to be able to play some rock. Would this be a good all around guitar?

[OliverFranzon]

this is probably one of the more versatile guitars you can buy. especially for that kind of money. i'd say go for it.

[FrancisTheGook]

Damn when I said soon I guess I was lying, but yeah I went to guitar center the other day, and I really liked the Ibanez as73 which is the same type as this. The neck felt more comfortable for me. Oh yeah Carfreak was my old account, now I made a new one and have some guitar videos :]

[GordoBrown1022]

Yes sir... It's a great guitar for any type of music really... Perfect for jazz through experience. I changed up the strings for a better jazz tone tho... But, you could pull it off with stock strings. Guitar has great action as well... So I highly recommend this guitar

[FrancisTheGook]

Thanks for the advice but I went with a sunburst Ibanez as73. The neck was just more comfortable for me than the dot.

[GordoBrown1022]

Hear Ibanez plays great... Never played one myself. That's cool stuff tho...

[Bluzer86]

nice playin

[ZeppelinFan7777]

i love this guitar i bought one today and it sounds amazing

[tobycunningham]

its semi hollow

not completely hollow as stated.

[megamanxu]

i think all guitar like these are semi hollow

[tobycunningham]

erm nope.

epiphone casino for instance is completely hollow - and the gibson es330 which is simmilar.

[megamanxu]

oh i see.. ok :D

[SiKxBlAzEr]

and the ibenez artcore which i bought and didnt like at all

[IanKusekSoloArtist]

why? ibanez are very nice guitars..hmmmm..

[vikmega]

too bad epiphone is being gay, they're not making anymore even though alot of people want that color, oh well enjoy it bro

[bigZjujuman]

is it archtop?

[Koreanflow]

Sounds like a blues track...but you're playing some random scale over it-are you playing the major scale or something? It sounds really out of place...

[StreakingInJanuary]

Hm... I like this guitar... But, does it distort clean channels on solid state amplifiers?

[ROCKHIMSELF]

Beautiful guitar..

[Makaroni57]

Hi wher did you got the back track for blues Greetings fro Argentina I have a red dot too watch my videos,

[Yoruboy]

Its not a bad looking guitar and sounds very good too, but it would not stay in tune for long so i decided against it.

Good playing though.

[Linkinbassist]

I find that you need the right strings. I use .10s or .11s, but always D'Addario. I got tired of EB Slinky strings, they wear out too quickly and always shoot out of tune. So the right strings are crucial to tuning stability, alongside a good set-up.

And thanks :)

[markiii1]

@Linkinbassist Use the same strings, i was away for 14 days of holiday, came back. still in tune. amazing.

[rustyjames761]

@Linkinbassist excuse me sir but how much did guitar set up back my friend

[fenderbob1967]

bought one at GC a couple of yrs ago only paid $250 they wanted more. Paid $30 to have it set up. I buy things from them not often but found that their prices are not etched in stone. Also have no problem with guitar staying in tune.

[thatdude923]

what is the name of the effects pedal you are using?

[deadheadwookie17]

The background setting sounds like Black Peter from the Dead. The dot sounds really good man, I myself was thinking on getting the deluxe model.

[punchdrunkniggerdick]

lol its not completely hollow body it has a center block you moron

[blondecrow]

hey man, i'm interested in getting one, just wonderin', does it stay in tune? other guitars in that pricerange tend to go out of tune easily.

[MosesMight]

Great playing bro..Sounds awesome.

[fannboygh]

what about guitar center? thats the only place i know to buy a guitar,will it be expensive there?

[travis99lxi]

They are $299 at G.C.

[Jgrocks101]

it is 299

[fannboygh]

how much did it costs?

[BigNoseMusic]

I´ve got that Chili Pepper Poster too:D

RHCP 4 LIFE!!

[photographymatt]

nice guitar:-)

looks like a student hall room...student loan guitar:P hehe

[keegan141414]

cool playing & dot. im hooked on jammin to backing tracks.just got a cherry dot

[94guitar08]

haha you must lose alot of picks while you are playing.

amazing sound and great playing

i love the white and black

[mrgoodvibrations]

Yes it sounds are quite varied, Good buy no wonder their in demand.

[coughlintm]

this is a semi-hollow body not a full hollow body

[sageguitar70]

Nice Guitar!

[texasranga]

i think the studio sounds just as good as the regular dot, and i think that the regular dot sounds just as good as the Gibson Es-335.

[sh7de]

Just wish the regular Dot came in white.

[lastkiz13]

i think it would make a nice smokin alt-punk guitar..

[jjleon]

hey what amplifier are you using?

[jeh10121989]

i want one of those

[chaazums9165]

Hey! Jimmy's supposed to be playing!

[musketeer667]

sorry i meant Robert Plant

[musketeer667]

i know this is irrelevant but your voice sounds a lot like Robert Palmer

[JedTaneo]

i wanna hear it in clean tone.

[MoFo2127]

I think that was clean tone.

[BDoggyDog05]

epiphone dots arnt me fav

[colonelkb96]

well said and nice playing shes a beauty

[ayabiecal]

fuckin sexy guitar mate :D

greets from germany

[theboiwonder]

Needs some new pickups. Otherwise, I like the black on white look of that bad boy.

[JerryReedijk]

Nice tone , i love that guitar it feels a lot better then the normal epip dot.

[brandon99transition]

is it a painted neck?

[Linkinbassist]

it is, but it doesn't make it a slow neck. not in the slightest...

[brandon99transition]

ok sweet, now i really want this guitar! i just dont understand how it can be so cheap?

[Linkinbassist]

it's damn good, i recommend it highly :)

[nogginthefroggin]

Hi, when you paid £210 for your Dot, was it reduced from £370 ish? Mine was, but £370 seems a lot for such a basic, but well made guitar (bearing in mind where it's made). My local shop are sharks, but I know some mid-price Epis are around the 370 mark. It was an impulse buy, no research!! Anyway, great playing. You won't see me on youtube as I'm still rubbish after 30 years!!

[ArtDonna84]

Right out of the box, just got???? Wow,you got lucky the action and setup was right, as you played awesome. Take care, I enjoyed the video

[nthsieh928]

he's good but i mean, its not a bad guitar. its not the amp either dumbass. the amp sounds if you have good pickups.

[bandostyle]

after this video now I'm sure about my idea.

It doesn't mind if a guitar is cheap,of it work good is all made by the guitarist and tha amp.

[fbiangentandpi]

nice guitar but i h8 what your playing

[brokenwingsarefallin]

sweet accent and sweet guitar ive got the same one in red

[joseguitar08]

nice guitar

[Ibik]

nice

[ghostanatomy]

So does the Studio have the maple block in the middle like the regular one?

[Linkinbassist]

It does. It reduces the old feedback issues but (Thankfully) doesn't solve them altogether. The controllable feedback element is awesome :)

[skullken]

That was awesome....I just got one...same model (but with ES335 pickups).

Can you tell me where I can get background music like that to jam to?

[Linkinbassist]

That came with the RC-2 loop station :)

[RaiseItToEleven]

I just bought the neck humbucker from that guitar from someone and before I put it into my guitar I was wondering do you think it is a good humbucker?

Thanks.

[Linkinbassist]

What are you putting it in? In the Dot, it's a nice pick-up...I'll eventually upgrade though I think. How much did you get it for?

The Alnico magnets are a good choice, though...i like them in my this :)

[RaiseItToEleven]

Well I was going to put it in this one guitar but then I found out it was plywood so I don't know about that anymore haha. The bridge pickup I have is a Dimarzio Super distortion, I got the 335 neck humbucker for like $15 or something. I bought it with other guitar parts.

[Linkinbassist]

It's a mahogany body ;)

[666lordbyron666]

whats the difference between this and epiphpone dot black?

[brandon99transition]

the colour.

[laxlaxlacrosse]

lol :)

[paintedsky68]

that was nice.loved it.

i reli wanna get a dot jeje.looks awsome
