Epiphone Masterbilt Series

Hello there good people, I'm in the market for an acoustic guitar and was looking at the Epiphone Masterbilt Series. I would seriously appreciate some reviews on these guitars preferably by those who own them or have in the past. Thanks!

Re: Epiphone Masterbilt Series

It's a great guitar. Im impressed by the sounds and build of them. Usually when i play epiphone acoustics it just hurts my ears but the masterbilt seems pretty reliable and a pretty decent tone. For the money i would rather go out and get a Breedlove but if you are chasing the Masterbilt i say go get it

Which Breedlove model are you comparing to the Masterbilt is it the Passport?

I haven't played any masterbuilts, but the mid-range acoustic market is filled with great-sounding deals. Shop around.
