Re: Epiphone MM-30: Should I Improve It, Or Upgrade?
I have the exact same MM-30 but mine is all black. Bought it 15 years ago as my travel mando in my salesman days and it served me well as I was able leave my better instruments safe at home. Still have it and now its my campfire mando.
But it has very limited tonal quality and probably always will. IMHO no repair work will GREATLY improve that fact. That being said I agree with comments above. Keep it for that no worries beater and save for something at that next level. Lots of great stuff at the A style price point you mentioned.
