I thought Epiphones were built differently from Epiphones, why do they break so often too?
Mahogany seems like a shit wood for a neck in general tbqh. Glad my guitar has a Maple neck.

2 piece necks in general have some issues. You only need a bit of angle to keep from buzzing, and less tension over the nut is better for bending to a certain degree. Most fenders don't come with stepped tubers, and so they rely on string trees. These have some issues but you can remove them if you happen to have heavier strings and use string wraps effectively. I know this is more than you wanted to know but it's interesting to me.

I heard this is a thing thay happens with them kinda frequently. I saw a thread in /diy/ where a dude repaired his. Actually came out really good.

Man, zoom has released 4 stomp boxes and an amp for the g5n the last two months, and they say they're gonna add new stuff every month. If they add a bass amp it's an instant buy for me. I was kinda bummed about less parameters on the effects and the inability for the expression pedal to be assigned to different parameters on the pedals, and the fixed high-pass filters on the delays and reverbs, but if they keep adding shit it'll be worth it for the drives and amps alone.
I do like the tone anyway, god have mercy on my soul.

So I bought a used Epi Dot from Guitar Center that ended up needing a fret leveling. But, after a couple of weeks of playing with it, I decided that I didn't like the guitar enough to pay to have it fixed.
Long story short, I went back to GC and settled on CV Strat, but the salesmen (same guy who sold me the shitty Epi) sold me the floor model. And I was too embarrassed to ask if he had one in the box. I even panicked and bought the two-year insurance plan.
Problem is, this Strat has fret buzz too and is all crusty. And I still haven't returned my Dot since I wanted to do a side by side comparison at home on my amp. So now I feel like I overpayed for a basically used guitar.
