Body Tonewoods
The top of the DR-100 is made from select spruce, while the back and sides are constructed from mahogany, giving the DR-100 balanced expression, warm bass, and excellent projection.
Rosewood Fingerboard with Dot Inlays
The fingerboard of the DR-100 is constructed from rosewood. The resilience of this durable wood makes the fingerboard extremely balanced and stable, and gives each chord and note clarity and bite.
Angled Headstock
Unlike cheaper designs, all Epiphones feature a 14-degree headstock that gives you more pressure at the nut and so you get more sustain with less tuning hang-ups caused by "string-tree" gadgets.

Exactly what I expected
Prior to purchasing this I did go to local stores and tried this and other entry level guitars. With no experience what so ever on guitar I had a vague idea of what I cared about. It had to fit, it had to sound good to me, and I had to like the look. In the end the DR-100 won out. I have owned it about a week at this point, I can play 2 chords correctly and 4 others correctly if I am extremely slow, and I know that I went the right direction.
This guitar works for someone learning. It does stay in tune without major issues. Even having to re-tune each day takes very little adjustment. You WILL want to buy strings and swap them out. I could hear the issues more experienced players were pointing out and a $5 set of medium strings made that disappear immediately. I do think that the strings are a bit higher than a couple others I tried, but my feeling after a week of playing it is that this forces me to be careful and make sure where I am positioning my fingers (more...

Just what a beginner needs!
The Guitar looks great and holds the tune very good! Im actually a beginner and don't know much about guitars, but i've had several friends tell me that the guitar is great and i take their word for it! Very pleased with the Guitar and it's sound is great, so i was told!
Nice entry-level guitar
Bought this guitar for my daughter as she was showing interest in learning how to play. When it arrived I was impressed by the quality of construction and the over-all attention to manufacturing detail. She was impressed by the sound and although I also purchased a set of 'easy' strings as she calls them, they were not needed as the strings that came attached were flexible enough not to cause finger pain.
I had searched for quite some time to get a guitar for her and I have to admit I was tempted by a few which were cheaper but poor reviews here on Amazon swayed me the other way. I am very satisfied with this purchase because my daughter is satisfied and I would recommend this instrument to anyone looking for a beginners guitar.
