1998 2002 MODEL factory in Korea.
22 frets, two humbucker pickups Epiphone.
1 volume and 1 micro Tone, 3 position switch.
CHARACTERISTICS identical to the Epiphone G-400 "full stop", two prs Difference:
- Wood used is of Korina, an African mahogany trs good quality that sounds better than the mahogany "standard" of G-400.
- Is the acastillage dor.

UTILIZATION

Channel trs enjoyable, Access in acute incredible.
Good ergonomics, but like all the SG, the neck tends to fall when playing standing. Simple matter of habit, because I do not think even most, do me a GNE at all.

SOUNDS

Dj guitar has an incredible vacuum, much better than that of G-400 is so used to the wood of better quality.
As against the Epiphone pickups, this is not what is the best, they could not make the most of the lute.
So I changed the original pickups for a Gibson 490R in the neck and a 500T in the bridge. And everything changes, the guitar is mtamorphose!
Trs is approached much the sound of the Gibson SG in the neck position, in less lgrement prcis though. In bridge, it sounds like a Gibson Explorer, with a little less body, but the resemblance is obvious.
I put 9 with the change of pickups, otherwise I would have been 7.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 3 years.
The report price is trs good quality.
Too bad it is no longer manufactured, because I find the more Korina G400 esttique the red.
I will not go that choice because I'm heading to the Les Paul type guitars, simple question got!
