They said that ‘This little concert acoustic is stonkingly good’ and that it is ‘A comfortable, fast playing neck, plus good dynamics and volume from the parlour-esque body. At this price, go buy. Every home should have one.’. One of the unique features of the V300 is that it comes in a few, quirky colours. Along with the standard natural, why not go for a baby pink or powder blue guitar? Colour choices like this could add a little bit of extra fun into playing which could motivate newer players while struggling to pick up some new skills. The V300 is a brilliant place when stat with buying a Vintage guitar. Though it is a full scale guitar, the body is slightly smaller and more of a 'parlour' size. This combined with the fantastic prices means that it is a perfect instrument for a beginner who could be a little bit put off by the size off a full scale guitar.

As you can see there is a drastic price difference between the two models listed above. The actual guitars are quite similar however from the picture alone you can see a much different quality of finish, the the Gibson having a much more embossed and glossy finish compared to the flat, matt Epiphone.
