Epiphone Hummingbird sounds flat - how to improve?

[Chris 0]

My Epiphone Hummingbird Studio sounds flat, maybe boxy. Any tips on improving the sound?

If anyone has got this model, has your experience been the same? If so, what did you do to improve it, if anything?

Hi!
Have you experimented with different brands of strings? Certain strings bring out the best of the instrument, and it's great to try different types of strings and brands to hear what strings work the best for that particular instrument. If it sounds boxy, I'd definitely think it would brighten up with the right kind of new strings.
Kind regards/E
