Quest for new 6 string....opinions wanted

[jopher]

So...Ive got an itch to have a new acoustic.I dont have the talent to justify plunkin down the big bucks for a Martin or Gibson etc. I would like a bigger sound and Ive always wanted a cutaway, and this has led me to the Epiphone EJ200C. Ive only had the opportunity to get my hands on one and for 399. I was pretty impressed. It is a finely detailed guitar with a decent sound throughout its range.The only drawback I could find was that it has a laminate top.Now, Im used to playing refurbished junk, so anything sounds better to me. Thought Id query some players and get thier thoughts and or experiences on this before I made a purchase.Anyone ever play one of these or does anyone have other suggestions that may fit the bill??
Anyone know a good "set up" person in Michigan ??
Thanks for your input.....Joe
