Thank you, Mike, for your kind words... a lot of broken head stocks could have been fixed but they do look hopeless at first glance... a little glue and a clamp or two...Epiphone hit a home run with these guitars!! I recommend it to anyone wanting to learn and anyone who plays all the time... I really enjoyed your comment!!

Thanks, J.D., I appreciate your kinds words, hope your new guitar works out for you...

@@jimlamb1000 Thank you, Jim! It arrived, and it is terrific! Fit, finish, frets, etc! It's been retitled a J-45 Studio, made in Indonesia. I'm very happy with it!

@@ronvonryan Ditto ! Hi Ron, Hope all is well. We miss you. :-)

@@BaktaBak3 All well here, great to hear from you.

@@ronvonryan Nice to hear from you too Ron :-)

Hi, I bought same guitar it's just 4days old., but m not getting warm or bass tones , and it's giving too sharp n bright tones .. Is there any way to make my guitar sound normal with warm tones

@@manojkokane3365 buy a better guitar, I have this epiphone for a few years now, and it is still a shitty guitar. But hey what do you expect from an guitar under 500 $. A 200 dollar guitar can't be as good as a 2000 guitar

what you say sounds obvious and was probably true 20 or 30 years ago. But those days are gone. Imported guitars made in modern factories are great values. Compare Epiphones to Gibsons and most critics will agree the $2000 Gibsons are superior. By just a little bit. Certainly not 10x better. I’ve been playing for 50 years and I still suck. But I’m very happy with my AJ -220s. I gave my Martin to my daughter.

I play finger style on acoustic or electric... try both... you can get many different tones from different guitars... eventually you will develop your own style... keep practicing, it took me a couple of years to get comfortable playing with more than just my pick!! Thank you, Anup, for your kind words and support!!

Thanks, Mitch, I'll do that!! 12's are a little too heavy for me, but I'm changing the nut and saddle for sure..

Hello, Arthur, I do a little bit of a guitar setup from time to time, but I'm not in business as a luthier. I use a straight pick because I could never get accustomed to playing with my thumb.. The fellow I learned from used a straight pick.. Works ok for me...I produce a couple of radio shows in north Texas, The Jim Lamb Road Show and The Miss Midnight Show, they play on the internet on WPHO the Phoenix, out of Australia. The radio station burned down from the latest fires, They are testing new equipment right now so we'll be back on the air soon... Thanks for asking!!

Thank you, 10's, Martin Marque extra lights, soon changing to 9's.....

The letter s stands for solid, as in solid top.

Bak-ta-Bak Country, Rock & Oldies Band thanks Bak-ta-Bak!! I always appreciate your support and kindness!! Keep on rocking!!

Thanks, Jeff, for your kind words.... It's real similar to a J-45 ... for the price difference I'd buy the AJ 220S.. The J-45 is way more guitar than I need.. If you plan to record professionally, get the J-45..

Thanks for your reply and insight on this guitar!

manoj kokane I use Martin Marquee 10’s. If you are playing through an amplifier, set the tone for EQ.. the cut-away style reduces some of the natural low end sound... you may want to play through a nice amp with at least a 10 or 12 inch speaker... let me know how you work this out...

Pretty sure just the top is solid. I've got this model in what's called " mahogany burst " and the back and sides are laminate. Nice guitar..

Thank you, Anderson Silva, for your kind comments. I hope you enjoy your new AJ220S. It is a great guitar for the price. I really like mine!!

Got my new AJ220S. Beautiful guitar and nice size. Both the guitar size and neck width is smaller then a Martin Dreadnought, but bigger than a 00 size. Extra fret board length of the long scale makes upper scale chords much easier. Very comfortable guitar. Factory set up was close. Nut was perfect (1/64" at the High & Low E at the 1st fret). Saddle was good on the treble side (4/64" at the High E, B, G at the 12th fret), but Low E, A, & D was too high. A combination of tightening the truss rod and sanding the landing spots for those 3 strings brought it down to 4/64" on A & D, & 5/64 on Low E.) Stock strings were very bassy sounding (but good for Bluegrass) . I tried 80/20 Bronze strings, but they sound to raspy. Switching to D"Adarrio EXP-26 created a very balanced sound.

I found a really nice link on youtube.. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/m9iWosVlvr20loE.html

@@jimlamb1000 thanks

arthur ogle I don’t think I’m kin to that Lamb family... but good to know there’s a luthier close by!!

Good for you, Andyl, happy guitar picking!!

Kenneth Carnes thank you, Kenneth, for your kind words!!

Ditto ! Jim is a wonderful guitarist. .....and you're a wonderful singer/songwriter. Hope all is well Ron. :-)

@@buskingbetty7135 Thank you, and great to hear from you, I hope all is well your end.

@@ronvonryan Great hearing from you also Ron !

@@buskingbetty7135 And you, keep in touch as I am a fan of your work.

Just checked, $270.....

@@jimlamb1000 Still a good deal for a jumbo acoustic with a solid spruce top and sounds good

I would compare it to a J-45 or a little less...

I, too, stunk, when I first started. My family told me I sounded better each day. I've been practicing for 66 years and still only know two songs, one is awful simple and the other is simply awful... I helped a fellow employee with a song he was struggling to find all the chord changes, I handed the lyric sheet to him with the chords written above each word where the chord changes were. He said, "I hate you", best compliment I ever had..I appreciate you, Huntington1234567, for taking time to listen. I'm hoping I can show more folks where the chords are!! Happy picking!!
