Pros
Many customer reviews praised the quality of the build as well as the sound. The tone is often described as "rich" and the volume unplugged as "loud". Many of the people who gave it positive ratings were ones that have a lot of experience and have owned multiple guitars.
Cons
There were a few people who complained about feedback issues when amplified but it's difficult to tell what role the guitar or the amp played in this from reading their reviews. A couple of people didn't like the pickgaurd.
Overall
Epiphone have a strong reputation for making great acoustic-electrics in this price range and based upon customer reviews it appears the EJ-200SCE lives up to these high expectations.
