Mga chief, I'm just wondering... kasi I'm planning to buy an Ibanez AS73 instead of a epi one... If in case ba, posible kaya kabitan ng pickguard ung as 73?

I was gonna buy an AS73 2 years ago. I decided to get an AF75 instead just because walang pickguard yung AS73. Nagsisi ako at wala na yung AF75 ngayon sa kin kasi nakapalan ako masyado sa body nya.

yep. the Ibanez AS73 17.5k. the Hamer Echotone sa JB is 19k plus..

i was about to get one AS73 (again), but i thought, i'd get another burst like my old one and it's China made (nothing to do with it). so i decided to get the Hamer Echotone, made in Indonesia (just trying out a new made) and the colors are solid.. in fact, looks, sounds and feels great!

i would suggest, go to Audiophile at Robinson's OTIS or at MOA to check the AS73.. then try the Echotone, check the diff.

how about considering 2nd hand korean or japanese made 335 models? you might be surprised just like i was.was scheduled to buy an as73 but on the very day i was to go to AP to purchase it an ad showed up..tested it and the acoustics of the guitar got me sold right away.plugged it in when i got home and never looked back =)

takam din ako sa echotone na yun eh. pero parang naastigan lang ako dun sa pagiging plain ng as73. if ever, di ko lalagyan ng pickguard yun. hehe.

Haha. tagal ko na nakita yun. siguro late 2010 pa (kung di ako nagkakamali). pero nililinis naman ni kuyang bantay (diko alam pangalan). Pero looks good eh. wala lang talaga ako oras kanina itry. tsaka oks talaga pag MIC. mas mura. haha.

Sir, eto po ba yung bagong echotone na indonesia made? copy eto ng Gibson ES359 right? so mas maliit siya ng bahagya kesa sa Epi dot?

It depends kung ano tugtugan niyo bro. Pero if I were you, I'll take the Sheraton II. Yun kasi yung top of the line ng Epiphone for their semi hollow. On semi hollows, you can control more of the feedback which is occuring on high gain pedals rather than a full hollow guitar. Pero ayos din yung Casino if you're going for a full hollow sound. Bottomline is, if you want a versatile guitar, go for a semi hollow.

I've only heard a sheraton once, but I liked how it can coax a tone with piano-like character. When it comes to jazz box though, ito talaga ang di ko makalimutan http://www.sadowsky.com/archtops/LS-17.html
