Guitar made in Korea.
22 frets, acute accessible.
The bridge is really sucks! Despite the adjustments made by various professionals, it goes out of tune in stop ... Vibrato is purely useless but pretty!

It's a set neck.
2 volume knobs, 2 tone knobs and a selector pickups.

Mine is mounted with Gibson Humbucker pickups (not original) ...

Aesthetic level, it is very beautiful, it's an SG, it's beautiful!

UTILIZATION

The handle is very nice! Size at both the touch.

The weight poses no worries, next to a Les Paul is that slab! For balancing, SG is also when the handle is released, he falls ...

Access to acute poses no worries, see angus, it does not seem to bother him.

To get a good sound, no problem is a guitar that is, it works!

SOUNDS

It's perfect for my style of music: I play rock / hard rock influenced and stereophonics ACDC on a Bugera Vintage 22. Used on a crunch sound, is the best! It tolerates sounds a bit beefier, but do not exaggerate, it's still a guitar blues / rock.

OVERALL OPINION

I use this guitar for 1 year. I used an Ibanez before, then another epiphone SG (another more standard). The sound of the previous epiphone (fitted with micro epiphone origin), was more aggressive. on the other hand, less pretty, more standard with less character.

From everything I've tried (and I spend a lot of time in music shops), the SG is by far my favorite. And mine would compete well against the real Gibson SG.

For value for money, I can not speak too much, I bought OCCAZ to 400 euros (with Gibson pickups and cases).

This is the best!
