NEW REVIEW - big suprise

i am 15, but i have been playing guitar for a while now. i have always been a proud owner of many fenders that were givin to me from my father. i had gone to a falloutboy concert and had heard patrick stump's playing and thought the SG sounded great. so i had gone to my local guitar center and picked up the cheapest SG i could find just incase i dident like it. i had brought it home and it is now my most favorite guitar. i had made many modifications to it such as adding a pick guard and trading up the hard wear and putting on a set of DR strings, and swaping one of the pickups for a seymour duncan alnico 2 pro pickup. this is by far one of the best modaret guitars i have played an i now plan on buysing a g-400 SG

Solid, scrappy hard rock guitar of choice

I've had great luck with this solid, unpretentious beginner's guitar. This is just as, if not more reliable than the much more expensive "serious" guitars I've owned. Everything about it feels great. It's a light but sturdy guitar you won't feel guilty about putting through a little punishment. Unlike some other reviewers, mine has extraordinarily good tuners. it hardly ever goes flat or sharp, even after very heavy strumming. the input jack is chintzy, like all budget guitars, but replacing it runs you twenty to forty bucks at a reputable shop. As far as electronics go, the pick-ups are fair. the open coils are nice and bright, but put out plenty of noise. The instrument's weakness is its lack of tonal versatility. It only does one sound well: hard rock. that's (partially) the result of having only one tone knob. This is an excellent no-frills beginner's guitar, and a reliable mid-range one for an unbelievable value. F*@$ Squier!

Amazing Guitar

The Epiphone SG Special is the perfect beginner to intermediate guitar. This was the first guitar i got a few years back and still plays like the day i got it. It has a very fat tone with the two humbuckers. You can play basically any style of music with it. I gave it a 4 for features because it only has 1 volume and 1 tone knob. Other than that, this is a very solid guitar.

Smooth playing

I bought this guitar a couple of months ago to go along with my Epiphone Les Paul Special II. The fretting is smooth and it fits just right. You get all of the features of a Gibson SG at a low price. I have been playing guitar for only six months now but this guitar makes me feel a lot more comfortable. This guitar will prep me well for when I graduate (financially) to a Gibson.
