Arrow Epiphone SST Classic 1.75 Acoustic-Electric Guitar

Hello,

is this a good budget buy for a Chet Atkins style guitar?

http://www2.gibson.com/Products/Acou...T-Classic.aspx

Anyone own one / tried one?

Thanks!

I don't own one, but I've been looking at it too. There's a steel string version, but I think the nylon sounds better. I found this on You Tube.

i have the gibson chet atkins ce model. it is very similar to this epiphone sst but i believe the quality would not be as high as the gibson. you may want to scour craigslist and ebay to find a used gibson sst or the chet atkins ce or cec models. mine is great sounding but doesn't get much playing time due to a couple newer guitars! it is a lot of fun to play; does have that nylonish sound(even tho electrified) and has tons of sustain.
play music!
