    This is a SG, we will not repeat 107 times: Access in acute is incomparable. A pure delight!
    The handle does not fall at all in the body, there is nothing for our little chicks GNER. However-and this is what happens the main default of this guitar-the weight of the guitar found it poorly rpart: nosed!
    This is not sitting trsgnant (quoique. ..) but becomes annoying when playing carrment up! Prvoir a leather strap or quality of ballast the body of the guitar, so.
    Well yes ... This is a guitar that has the handle of his Guelle 3 km long, but we must feel the consquences somewhere.

    Talking about, dailleurs, lonnnng this round! And standing proudly dsquilibrant linstrument he nen no less enjoyable trs touch! The frets are smooth and holds well in hand. And no, its not like a log could say the Ibanezeux / strateux / fans raplapla It handles all this is very well run, well!

    SOUNDS

    The sound is fat and plutt hot, even if it is far from the original MODEL in Gibson. About the microphones, they are not as catastrophic as those placed on the Epiphone Les Paul. Menfin if you can invest in Seymour Duncan (Go hop! SH1 / SH2 or SH4 / SH4) the BTE will bring you an earful, EST on the day and night!

    Level of versatility, cest a SG (Arrtttteuh!) So it nya nothing wrong. Blues, Rock, Pop, Hard Rock, Metal, Funk same Everything is as dad to mom! And if in addition you have changed the pickups You will not be so far from the sound quality of home 1600 MODEL Gibson.

    For my part, more jaffectionne particulirement the neck pickup, menfin aprscest got a question and then I will fawn all change these microphones

    A lil ngatif point for the switch that tends to slam a few days. Mine is still alive, thank you for it.

    OVERALL OPINION

    We will avoid concluding with a cest cool as guitar, so that inintressant pathtique.

    LEpiphone G-400, cest primarily a matter of Got, and with a capital G sil vous plait! Do you like its shape? Do you like the typical Gibson, plutt hot fat? You need versatile dune scratch? You are interested by your llectro-slaughter? So this guitar is for you!

    If you are ready to leave the small ct default that give this attractive price, namely (rcapitulons, rcapitulons!)
    - A weight dsquilibre plutt taking the beginners head.
    - Microphones quil is better if you really want to change the sound Gibson. (Cest menfin not essential if you are playing apart. A 15 W amplifier, eh?)

    So take the you will not regret your choice. Cest mignon and scrolls like it!

    So change it!

    SOUNDS

    I play metal and heavy rock and it is clear that I had to change the micro and re-cabling
    to derive satisfaction (installing a DiMarzio X2N in the bridge)

    Okay now csr it hard while saturated, but no c well versatility!

    However, I note, but the original sound.

    OVERALL OPINION

    It's been over 5 years that I have and I do not spares because its mouth is dying.

    Today I am fully satisfied from scratch by the sound and use, the only problem is the dsquilibre of the head, but c-inch grave, as it REPRESENTATIVES an excellent quality price.

    I must add that even when to get satisfaction he had to change it!

    As against the guitar is very unbalanced, and playing up it will be important to continually monitor its position. But it quickly becomes natural, as it is light so it's not so embarrassing failure. And what a pleasure to move with!
    The original sound is bad, the microphones are sadly pathetic at best to model G-400 standard. We must plan to change them (I installed the DiMarzio Air Classic, which is excellent). Then the problem is that the guitar goes out of tune frequently. And even if you put mechanical Groover almost nothing changes, the problem mainly from a lack of rigidity of the guitar a real shame, without which it would be possible to obtain much better results.

    SOUNDS

    The G400 has a little trouble on big amps (Mesa Rectifier, D), leaving a feedback quickly in all directions, but it played in the style is not necessarily problematic distortion and it is doing very well. Marshall JCM on more traditional, she is doing much better and that's okay. As against it is not for clean sounds, do not choose for that!

    The rating reflects the original pickups, that sound bad and do not pass to the limit that distortion. I use a BOSS GT-6. With microphones correct (Seymour Duncan, DiMarzio according to your tastes ...) I would put in clean 7 and 8 in distortion.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I bought this guitar in 1996, so for nearly seven years, it leaves enough of decline.

    You pay the license Gibson (yes, that little logo on the head), although expensive, can be found on the market of other guitars a little cheaper and better finished. Do not flash on the brand Epiphone (or any brand for that matter), each guitar is unique and each series must be tested to be judged at its true value! In this case, many pourdre (finishing the purchase very correct, plaque Gibson) in the eyes but unfortunately an instrument that can age badly. Microphones, cabling, mechanical and buttons to change rather quickly if you keep several years.
    My first electric, I'm bleeding to purchase, then customize to improve it as possible. Undeniable qualities, but a lack of rigidity and a terrible finish to aging make me doubt a little regret my purchase. It makes me a little sick to the guts down but I try to be realistic as far as possible.

    I took him to the mythical form, its devastating look, being at that time (1996) not really in a position to really judge its quality by myself. And I almost regret if the handle was not so special to play.

    A guitar a bit expensive, and limited life, but good to start if you want to pay the price. on the other hand it will necessarily start by changing the pickups, and if possible the original mechanical. : / So an investment plan which is better to be informed before purchasing.

    SOUNDS

    Good sound's a little crunchy, style AC / DC Premire PERIOD (Powerage).
    A Marshall Valvestate 20W, pretty fit.
    on the other hand, when you are on the micro acute and we play on the ropes, there are sometimes too low, and if too big distorstion means still more trs is what we play, the sound is blurred.
    may be we should think about a change in micro (gibson, duncan ..)

    OVERALL OPINION

    has a bit more than a month that I and I am glad trs. It has a good finish trs, a red transparent glaze revealing the grooves of the wood in the sun, and a sound that will particulire sduire who loves rock. It is quite versatile, but sometimes the sound trs CHARACTERISTICS SG on my marshall amp.
    Larsen trs easily and treble.

    UTILIZATION

    The neck is sublime and perfectly well in hand m & c discourage IS good for small hands and this guitar is a defficile jouerb for girl ...
    The access to acute and could not be more simple: c of a certain guitar that offers such Access in acute ...
    The weight of guiatre trs is good because it is lightweight, yet the large problem of guitar is the balance which is disastrous not to release the guiatre if the handle falls to the ground (this is due to straplocks that at a specific location) ...
    This guitar is awesome and it makes you want to play by its beauty and its handle that you bewitched: play another guitar soon becomes ennervant for the comfort of the handle is hard to find a false note and are felt if we took guiatre an end to the handle ...
    A chord is a simplicity ... and bend, the slide is a pleasure ...
    I put 8 for weight ... sniff ...

    SOUNDS

    For rock and funk c guiatre a very good but be careful not to s'ellogner repertoire of rock and funk ac distortion effects (wah. ..) like a big muff, a boss pw10, a mt2, an ibanez smash box and TS9 or a v-amp.
    I use it at home on an ibanez tbr50 is live and live on a marshall jmc900 DiResta studio or at the table and the sound is great ... tjs
    A micro distortion and excellent in my favorite c: the sound is cristain and very usable for any type of rock ...
    1 and 2 nd micro c foot in the clear for a song live acoustic sound is not as acute but not non-fat plus.Ideal for a boost in the song diso bourrines more!
    2 nd micro bass is too bcp guy is practically unusable thus damage to the no-fault: replace a micro ...

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use depui a year and a half and I was buying for his rock style look as the look ds ds sound.
    Its particularity is its color and beauty and its handle trs enjoyable to play.
    But I fear that the handle does not break stick is that I wear to the depression and it is unfortunate that we can not let go of it as jou ...
    I need a dja ibanez and I play on very good Ibanez at a very high and on fender tele or strata, or squiert Honner and I not find my good guiatre which is the only to understand my game and my government ....
    c an excellent quality price change even if a micro fau but really good c ... Yes I referrer eternal ment that choice I seeing a machete guiatre bcp more expensive but no Plai me so I thought my choi is fall back on a gibson sg is the logical continuation of this guitar ...

    - Attention, small default, the potentiomtres volume and tone (one for each pickup) seem a bit fragile. Finishing this level is a little pick (but serious kidney).
    - Note also that the patent is not very reassuring. I exploded a little on the body of the handle prs. It's not really visible, but it's a bit frustrating when you're careful ...

    I put 8 for the small problem of finish, but still a good quality instrument trs.

    SOUNDS

    I must admit that I have not had the chance to play thousands of guitars, however, I try some before I DCID including cort, yamaha or ibanez.
    I do not know if it's one that has the best sound quality intrinsques, however well it matches my expectations trs that level. I find trs versatile (even if it is more appropriate sounds more rock). The distortion that happiness on this guitar, the clean is still more than acceptable (note that this is not a Fender either. Here it is clearly in the vein Gibson, the sound is warmer and heavier) .

    Subsequently, I had the chance to play on a real SG (that of a friend who plays better than me). This is the my purchase I really look good. Indeed, even if the quality of Gibson are indniables for use as an amateur, the diffrence is far from being standard, I think that less be a guitarist a level dj trs advance piphone adequate. Attention, I probably do not say that I spit on SG, I would damn myself to be one, however, I do not find reasonable average, to spend such a budget as an instrument of guitars such as the G-400 are all made to fit our happiness. But if you're lucky enough to have the funds ncessaires ... Go for it, Gibson rulez!
    But in the meantime, I assure you that what gives birth this little wonder is any evidence of Happiness.

    Now if you want to quibble, I think the most INTERESTED is considering a change of pickups If you are not 100% satisfied for a sound a bit more "clean". I rflchi now and wait your advice;) because if we just do better on the cheap ... why not use it ...

    OVERALL OPINION

    - I m'clate it for about a year and I have been a lightning speed progress (such as what fun is probably the best catalyst pdagogique) this skyscraper is a fun machine!
    - Del to its sound, its look is j'apprcie that most (not the most important plays but trust me), black is just beautiful!
    - What I blame him, it is the lack at the finish (polish and connectors) but that price is really the lesser evil ...
    - In a report résumé quality - great price in short, a guitar with which you can go a long way.
    - I referrer that choice without hsiter I plan also to keep it for long ...

    Its handle is really Fidler to gibson! While round and very pleasant! Only Ibanezeux, and owners of the fender will find really huge! Each his own!
    Otherwise in terms of weight, it is too lgre! This is due to its quality mdiocre wood! And especially do NOT PLAY UP !!!!!! YOU OR CAUSE A FEW HOURS !!!!!!!! because it pitches down SERIOUS !!!!!
    Otherwise the sound is quite good I think. Trs me personally I feel happy with the pickups of origin. They are a little runny but still perfect agreement on the dynamics: they have the PCHE, believe me! Then put microphones on a 2000F 2500F ca guitar is not it!

    SOUNDS

    It possde style rock with a trs trs his grave! I was playing before the ACDC, Metallica, and it provided a max! I use a Marshall amp vs65R, WahWah a cry baby and a Chorus Boss CE5: the sound is impeccable!
    The sound of the scratching is severe drooling trs but if a need arises dfoulement, there is no better in the genre.

    OVERALL OPINION

    It has been almost two years I have and I am satisfied with trs trs.
    I love her look terrible, his finishing is 99% same as the gibson. As against its weight is minimal and it is really tro tro fragile.Fo really take great care trs (guitar requires safe.
    This is my first electric guitar and frankly it is a REFERENCE to rock! I half to jazz so I bought a sheraton 2, and yet, when I need a skyscraper with fishing, responds much better than sg sheraton2.
    Also fans of solos, this scraper is for you! The best I think!
    The price quality ratio is exceptional !!!!! € 420! And you're a scratch that rivals many many more that are even more expensive!!
    If jav remake that choice, I think I do it again now! Although it was not the guitar I wanted (jvoul an Epiphone Les Paul Custom). But it met my!

    Trs trs a beautiful guitar (mine is mounted with a microphone DiMarzio Tone Zone in the bridge position has cast even more: D)

    UTILIZATION

    The handle is enjoyable trs, D round it was well in hand, I find it more enjoyable than bcp sleeves Start 'Access in acute excellent. The weight is reasonable, but it should in no way release the neck of the guitar, otherwise it's the shovel on the ground Guaranteed! The guitar is too bad pitches down o the 9 / 10. In the sitting position is trs enjoyable and does not slip unlike the Les Paul. The slecteur, the tones and volumes allow to find a sound that suit all styles. But with age, for the moment slecteur has a little trouble (I descend so a 8 / 10) has not impede me since I left the microphone on acute changes but sometimes takes a bit bitognio to shake that sound so good.
    The mcaniques are well made, they are good agreement. The finish is good trs in woodwork, the neck and body.
    Is not to say this guitar, it has to face!

    SOUNDS

    Originally j'tais trs satisfied with this guitar at the sound (is that on my pov '20W and with the crap that was using a guitar before this ptite SG has not forge the ear). I started playing punk, alternative rock, metal, and I must admit that this guitar is doing well trs in each of these styles. Also note that the microphones were significantly amlior from the micro Epiphone ago qques years, the Alnico V is the best bill over the sries.
    But making progress and finding my style is dsormais No-Alternative, I finally see the limits of the beautiful lady despite the purchase of Marshall ... In this case I think Dinvest walkthrough is the best in new pickups, I have to opt of DiMarzio and now the sound of this guitar is a killer!

    So I'll note the change in micro performance APRS is 10/10, but it's true that the microphone is a bit garish acute and the neck pickup too rough (a mix of both playing the tone works well r results but a little mushy in heavy distortion)

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had more than one and a half, I am satisfied with this purchase. It's really a good trs guitar when you can not type in the Gibson and that a change in the boundary microphone is possible. This is a guitar-oriented Rock but still versatile and trs possde potentiel.Je have a good pay 400 new. If I had the choice again I would do it again (but keeping in ide change microphone ncessaire silent for me), otherwise I will turn to a Lag can be Rx-200. But I think the Epi SG is a good guitar when you start to dbrouiller, j'la advise ^ ^

    when I play a Start type neck, I have a lot more difficult, I often show my solo, then with my sg progress is staggering. j'ait test that of a telecaster I hate!
    access to the treble is super simple, it slides alone! al stick it even easier when the beam's on the stratabound.
    on the other hand totally disappointing for the balance! it's really the trick chaint. sitting there is no problem, but standing is a nightmare, it falls forward, have to take the shot, and again. I asked myself what I was elbow-slip something on my belt, it's better but it's decendre clothes. I play to fill ca pointing stick high enough.
    after the sound cf.
    8 because of the weight unevenly distributed, if not 10 just for the sleeve! even the oysters are great inlaid.

    SOUNDS

    I play with a Peavey Transtube shiffield United States 112. with the distortion of the amp ca pete well, it's been 5 months that I have so I can be more critical.
    for a good rock ca does it well, but it's not super super precise, the sound can be a little loud (in quibbling), I speak to the microphone treble. for the metal, uh a part of x japan, satriani, maiden I do not much more, ideal for beginners mauvasi the microphones are not bad. blem on the microphone is serious, oh la la, disaster, part to play Chuck Berry and Alvin Lee (the ca pete well) is pretty despicable.
    ons for now clear, it's also not good at all, at the beginning when I started, but not happy j'tais I just plus.de I do a lil plain cool stuff I am forced hack to death with the sound of the chorus to try to get clean sound. it's really not good for the clear micro serious as acute. is not at all precise. IN A WORD C4EST MOCHE.on I spend a yamaha stratabound that costs really cheap which ridicules its plain text (for the distortion against mdrrr, I resumed my sg lol) I hate to order from thomann of SD, I think it will have nothing.
    I put 5 because I'm beginning to saturate. in fact it's rather I put 8 for sound distortion (as for micro high) and 3 to clear)

    OVERALL OPINION

    It's been 5 months that I have is my first scratch after my acoustic.
    I love it, it is too good, I progressed with Breathtaking, to be said given the number of hours that I made a day if I progressed is not that I would be armed! it motivates me the guitar too much, the solo go alone, no problem for speed on the handle, my hand must be typical for lol. ca me would not blem shredder above.
    roro on nine pay 300 thomann, it's cheaper than the argus french, so must go for it. I take it again without hesitation. at the beginning I wanted to take a gibson, but it is ridiculous to start with a top model, I already had enough mm not take money to an amp, and it becomes deusio certainly less account galleries sounds that can meet and whom his progress.
    for my next guitar, I hesitate between an ibanez rg350, or strat Southwestern (21 frets but it's not much)

    SOUNDS

    Sure, it's an SG copy, so it's rock'n'roll. Do not imagine playing with that pink flyod machine is quite feasible but its sonneras different. Branch on a 1000 Fender peformance of a cabinet with 2 * 12 "celestion it sounds!! And yet the amp is not just a lamp. So when you plug everything on a Marshall JTM 30, y 'nothing wrong in this price range, in my opinion, the report is quite qualitprix respect. Some say the lack of microphones and potatoes are a little rough in distos. Personally, I r their that would lay an epiphone, moreover, an epiphone 400 (I pay 290 new Thomann !!!!), therefore not expect to have over 57 classic. But It is true that micro worthy of the name, the beautiful has to make sparks !!!!. As we get a clean sound fat and warm, typical gibson. In Lead, ca balance, "let there Be Rock AC approaches the short !!!!" without in gibson be.

    OVERALL OPINION

    In short, for the price there's nothing wrong I was already trying it some years ago, several Epiphone, but I was never really a good effect trs. Initially, I wanted her older sister, Gibson SG standard, but ultimately my choice is a PRS CE24 port which is much more versatile. So why I bought this shovel? Because the price the 300 at thomann, there is nothing wrong. SG shape always made me crack, and it rings, then there is no harm to do good !!!!. The beautiful home has arrived in 1 week and as I count the boost a bit!! (Change of pickups, mechanical, ect ...) I have not hsit. Some would say a whim guitarist, I would say, just one favorite ... The violin is finished not too bad, this is AC and I think for a beginner guitarist, it's a nice trs instruments (at least one true!), Although it is not an example of versatility . A friend dealer told me qu'Epiphone was making progress, more particularly because of the concurrency of PRS, and their famous MODELS SE manufacturing Koren. A Premire view, it seems that has not tromp at least for MODEL. So: beginners guitar: the essay!! When the guitarist warned: if you cracked SG shape, but you prferer put dough in another instrument that suits you more in terms of the epiphone is the sound in case you fall in love ...

    for Access in acute is an SG, so sensational, it is much agreement unlike what some say.
    ergonomics, that is to say that the play could not feel it as sitting for hours without getting tired feet, it is so slight, of course must hold it upright as it pitches down but does not bother me APRS while not really when you have a guitar is played!
    dpend sound good on the amp, one begins not on the head and arm rings.

    SOUNDS

    Yes, blues, rock, hard rock, it's nickel.
    I use a Marshall MG100DFX with a VOX wah wah.
    I use the bridge pickup for rhythm overdrive with an incisive and well
    and the neck pickup with the tone down or even 0 trs for solo round a good bit of Slash.
    the sound is bold desire we want more!
    I like the crunch and overdrive well saturated, clear sound I recommend a little reverb or chorus, to make the sound less flat.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for 5 months, I love her aparence, weight, I tried a Squier Start (its not enough pais) and an Epiphone LP, I prefer the LP in the SG, so I LP Gibson would take in (when I MRIT and that I can afford it), the ratio price quality is good, say nothing, I think with the experience I do it again the same choice, there are a lot interesting guitar in this price range.

    UTILIZATION

    Quality of the handle: The handle of this guitar is extremely enjoyable, especially for me just a little MODEL for beginners (Yamaha EG112). The frets are low enough to allow a game of fluidity poustouflante.

    Ease of Access in acute: a bb do it! More srieusement is dconcertant to ease it bars the cargo dernire almost taking his caf on the other hand.
    Ergonomics: The shape is pretty conventional but one that has proven itself over time and always has a certain charm.
    The black dot as the rpartition weight, a problem apparently rcurent at Epiphone.

    Indeed, if you lchez the handle, you will find that your guitar by the head Entran ... For that reason alone, dj j'enlve two points.

    Sound: It is very easy to get a good sound (I play on a Marshall Valvestate Amp 2000) in both in clean saturated. It must be said that the replacement of the microphones (the Gibson 490T reminds I) amnent warmth and life without Previous instrument.

    SOUNDS

    It is ideally suited my style of music (Nomtal)

    I play on a Marshall Valvestate 2000 with no particular effect parfoit a bit of wah wah to DLIR a little or a merely a simple saturation.

    The sound is fat and warm (again thanks to Gibson pickups that I added. J'enlve thus constitutes a point because even when some investment)

    It has no sound I dtest

    OVERALL OPINION

    I play on this MODEL prs since a year and I am just providing a rcement (Tray thank you ^ ^)

    The particular feature I like most: its classic form but sduisante

    The particular feature I like least: the dsquilibre glaring at the head

    The one that made me MODEL hsiter before buying was the Ibanez Iceman 400 home

    Qualitprix Report: For a guitar that just confused me back 500, I must say that the report is simply qualitprix stupfiant.

    Exprience with this choice I would do without hsiter

    I confirm that the handle also the famous trend nosedive when if you loose but you get done fast enough .... For my part playing pretty low, I Pali this problem by way of the guitar is that mcaniques either at my shoulders.

    This guitar is a parcontre lgeret disconcerting. It's too enjoyable and I am changing a lot of the other two (Yamaha Rgx420s Jackson Dinky JS20 and) which are heavy compared.

    Despite the good quality microphones less than a true SG sound is good ... trs same good. Particularly in micro position "Treble" and yet I am done and especially the rhythm but I was not convinced by the t trs his selection "rhythm" unless they put a good distortion and ca become good iune made of metal with all the charm of the grain of the G400 and more.
    Small BMOL anyway: buy "new" about one month ago, the low E string bordered hence coming up that I SETTING THE PROCESS handle a fast enough that is true even if c is frquent on new guitars, I did not expect this from piphone.

    The trs mcaniques are good bills and seems to keep the agreement and above all, it does not play that Floyd can be too. Tired of floyd that each use requires a racordage of scratching.

    Regarding the shape of the guitar and its finish, it's simple that's why I bought it I fell in love with the I saw the SG. Who can not afford to pay me I pulled over the recess that any Manir G400 is a trs trs ... good copy.
    Small precision even when the shape is nice but you will have to be patient before you find a hard case in which it can be housed ... I tjrs not found.

    SOUNDS

    It's perfect that I play either Rock and Metal (light or Staur substain ... Many in the grain and distortion and sound that is close, even with micro origins, what I 've heard of SG.'s experts do not say can be the same thing but for me I find it like trs.

    I play with a pdalier Zoom 707 V2 amp and a Fender 25 R (Actually I would not buy again it would be neither one nor the other). It sounds good anyway trs especially if I put the zoom Bypass :-). J'enegistre on Acid Pro and Sound Forge 7 4 .. the sound recording is not gnial but what can you ask a Sound Blaster Audigy LS ... just because ... My next purchase will be a sound card worthy of the name .. I think from a 0404 m-audio. On occasion I play also on softs and Revalver Guitar Rig type but always the same sound card does not allow me to make me really a good idea of ​​rendering.

    The crunch sounds are good and the trs distos type metal .....

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for over a month and I am SATIF trs. I was convinced in advance by its shape and vintage cot but I must say that the same cot and their characters for technical bluff me a guitar that is a reasonable price. J'tait trs happy with my first scraper (Yamaha Rgx420s) trs is comfortable and well made but I wanted a guitar which I like really mouth, which is the sound I'm looking, versatile, better finish and scroll (I plan eventually buy the 498 and 490T pickups of the SG Standard). For all this fills me with the G400 and I do not buy another skyscraper so tot

    APRS résumé in trying other models of (Start, telecaster) the G400 is a guitar with one of the best in my opinion qualitprix report. I also have the same Gothic G-400's but more beautiful and less CHRE my taste.

(I must not be the only myself get caught ?!... if?)

    SOUNDS

    This is a scratch to rock! above the look ... because if you rely on the original microphones to scream your amp is dead ... they are just as good magnets to stick reminders on my fridge with some ... Laughter is the also the Epiphone ... I suggest you change the pickups and it's actually for me, one advantage of this skyscraper ... in fact stick to microphones depending on the sound you want ... there is a choice. .. I put my two DiMarzio and I'm not worth the rsultat.Ca of Gibson ... and she seems to age well ... rather I over six years ...
    So home I will put 3 or 4 is better ... but now ...

    OVERALL OPINION

    Whereas I personally as a good basis Epiphone guitar for beginners or for customiser.Attention I'm not talking about very low-end genre "special" and gnral visss round pans (which parraissent least in my mind) ... nor is the USD or elitist MODELS (who have the airs really not bad).
    they have the look of the legends of scratch for a really low time, the choice There's also nine and it's the same ...
    The violin is very well made without being on his toes for fear of damaging it in small DLIR as we would with a skyscraper of 1500 Euros in the hands ...
    And yes is not a Gibson but RSID advantage is that you can arrange according to your tastes ... and like I can not m'empcher compare the sound of ... Gibson SG is really good but frankly the DiMarzio's Royal ... of yesteryear are more than some and split, it gives a little more sonic possibilities ... the more I find the finish a little Gibson lg re on some models including the GS "special" ...
    financially now be seen ...
    personal choice is made ... I bought a Gibson Les Paul Studio, there are few, and if it does not play in the same register, and change the piphone supports the comparison quite points, notament certain sounds ... I think a piphone buy one of these four ... to customize the course ... I also have a Epiphone 335 on which I mount two microphones, but Gibson I am a little less satisfied with the rsultat ...
    But the G-400 I love it ... I almost abandoned my Start ... no I DCON is not the same ...
