A unique spin on a classic

From what i remember of this instrument, 2 positive points come to mind. 1. It was creatice & unique.(even for a company with a product range as wide as Epi) 2. It was fun. Its not one of the Epiphone guitars that suprises us with its wildly high quality in its (very competitive) price range. It plays as youd expect or maybe just south of that, considering when you pick this axe up and put it on, it feels a bit too much like a "toy". Which is actually sorta what it is... But, toy are FUN! And the Slasher is just that! Its fun to play! And it comes with onboard effects! And they're aweful! Its fun! A O.D./destortion that sounds like your grandparents radio, and another onboard effect that must have been less than memorable, (on the guitar i owned anyway) because i dont remember it at all! But that sorta "miss or miss" quality is why a person would buy an instrument like this. Do not look to make this your main guitar, but if you wanna experiment on a budget, or your shooting a video with a dangerous theme at unsafe locations, you could not find a better axe. Its also one of those instruments that can stor up strange but fun inspiration. I had fun with mine, thats for sure!
