Made in China
22 Frets, 2 Alnico humbucker (made in Epiphone)
2 volumes, 2 tones and a 3-way selector
Set neck.
For more information, go to the Epiphone website.
Grover on my model.
I put 8 RAPORT for quality / price.
UTILIZATION
The handle is round and thick enough, like all the Epiphone. But you get very quickly. obviously, it's not a guitar shredder. Access to acute is perfect (it's an SG), although I find that from the 15th fret was much room in the boxes, why I prefer the guitars type srate. The shape, well ... I love the SG in part to their forms, so good. Do not forget the famous annoying tendency to dive when the A head is not holding the handle. Otherwise it goes to the weight.
Small flat for the position selector and electronics in general celon me to be redone, components and welds of poor quality ... We can feel when you pass a microphone to the other, small Cccrrrrgwfff and sound interruptions etc., are easily forgettable at home, but by repeating it and live the horror.
SOUNDS
I play everything.
Needless to say it is much better in rock, blues and all that.
As against the metal and other highly saturated music is different, the microphones do not have much power, it is quickly wide. These are not very accurate, it drools a lot with a powerful distortion. We thus obtain a rather bold. By clean is not bad, but nothing more. You can feel the difference between the two microphone, the bridge is more powerful and less accurate.
I love the sounds of rock 70/80 years. With this scraper is playable, but with a pedal that provides a minimum behind. One day I tried it with a GT8 ais a Marshall 50DFX ... It's something else it sounds and responds better, BUT STILL SO DROOL!
I'll change the pickups for Seymour Duncan SH1 and SH2 in the neck and bridge in SH4 (very classic ... but this configuration so effective. I am fortunate not to micro switch scratch, sentimental reasons, but I'm not that it would be better to totally change the scratch to invest in a more expensive but with good microphones from the start.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for a little less than a year.
I love its shape, but its matte black color contrasts with the modern vintage look of SG, we like it or not.
Before I board tried it in the same range of prices, Squiers, on the other Epiphone, Ibanez and, of Cort. Epiphone models, we do not see a big difference in sound. For Squiers is clear that it is best, Ibanez same. Cort for I have mixed feelings because Cort some great quality / price, but the woods are less well however.
