As an owner of 4 Gibsons(including an SG Standard), there is absolutely nothing wrong with Epiphones, and no reason a professional can't play them, in fact quite a few do.Enjoyed the video, keep it up. This one is on my list, either this or the p90 special.Thanks
Never met a Gibson guy that crapped on Epiphone. Not saying they don't exist, just think that's pretty rare if they exist. Most Gibson guys are just guitar guys and all guitar guys want 1 of everything.
hello sir I'm a mediocre guitarist and plays a PRS S2 594 it feels really comfortable and the tone is great. Been looking to buy another PRS and based on the reviews that I'm seeing people actually like them PRS even the SE line up. They just have their new SE CE 24 and a lot of people are liking it since it's the cheapest guitar on their lineup. Nuf yapping hope you have a nice day
@Thenon-mediocreguitarist Great guitar my friend! I never played one of these. One day, when I hit up G.C., I'll make sure to sit down and play one of these. Plug one of these guitars into my amp of choice, Line 6 Spider V60 MKII, same amp that I own, or the new Line 6 Catalyst CX 60, or Catalyst CX 100. How well do the pickups hold up on this guitar? Also, if I ever plug this guitar into a Line 6 Spider V60 MKII amp in Guitar Center, how well will the pickups sound, if I go to the insane setting on the amp? Super stoked to try this guitar out at G.C. I wonder how well this guitar will handle a set of Dunlop Heavy Core strings on it. Perhaps, the Jim Root Signature 6 string set, that allows you to play in Drop "A". And play all those heavy Slipknot riffs.
I got this guitar a few years back. Been playing for 20 years (semi-professional) and always wanted to try an SG and a guitar with p90s. So killed two birds with one stone (also had an employee discount). So far I've changed the pickguard (tortoise looks good with the green), bridge, and recently put Gibson tuning machines on it. I love the way the neck feels. I was intending to swap out the pickups but these sound really good to my ears.
The specs are actually pretty good. I have one and the complaints are the fret ends and the saddle on the B string had a sharp spot that needed to be filed. Otherwise its a great player
I got a Gibson Sg faded in 2016 for about 500 bucks new. I always though those weren't so good. But then some friends tried to make me trade that one. The price have gone up since then and I gotta say that I still rather buy a SG faded than a Standard. I don't now what it is exactly but the satin finish surely plays a big in role in that.

Have exactly the same guitar,,, love it.....
Thanks for telling me about guitars, Robin Williams.
I’d come home with the satin green p 90 Epi SG myself. I also am not a Gibson guy or typically like to play them but I’ve always liked the sgs.

Are you from USA or Canada
Nice Guitar, Thanks for Sharing.

Keep the P90’s man! They have a character all their own, unlike most generic humbuckers.
Personal growth is a peculiar thing. 🤘🏻
Are they still producing these selling them?

I purchase one for $350 and put a pair of Duncans and an Epiphone vibrato tailpeice and it plays and sounds awsome!

Cool guitar. Gibson made the SG Classic in the early 2000's, they had gloss finish otherwise identical.
4 and a half minutes in I'm leaving way way way too much superfluous stuff drove me out will not click on your post anymore, extremely frustrating.
Lmao, Epiphone SG's are the least cool guitars in history. I'd rather have clamydia.
