« Epiphone SG Special »
Published on 04/06/02 at 14:00I bought this unit at Guitar Center in Bridgeton Missouri, for $179.99. I decided to go with Epiphone on the advice of a friend that is in a local band. Being a total beginner, I wanted a guitar on the low end of the price range, and he said that epiphone fit the bill, with decent quality added in.
The SG caught my eye imediately. Looks wise it was just fantastic, and after trying other epiphone models, the weight seemed perfect. The bridge is smooth and easy to handle, (I have Short fingers) and the body is thin and easy to hold. As I have said, I am a beginner, but the humbuckers sound fine to me, it seems to stay in tune very well considering my clumsy practicing.
The only drawback that I have found was the toggle switch. It seems a little light for the use that it will be put through. It has not given me a problem yet, but I might change it down the road.
As far as quality, besides the toggle that I mentioned, this is a beautiful guitar. The finish is spotless, everything fits together very tight. Came out of the box sounding great.
For a first electric guitar, I cannot think of a better choice. You are getting quite a good deal for the price. Quality, good sound, ease of handling, and not so many bells and whistles to confuse.
