It's perfect in my zikk of stale, I the User with a marshall 9200 and soon with a v-twin pramp rack. the ca klak already when I played with the modulations of a Boss GT6.
The sound is very saturated fat and clean and very hot round. Impossible to do as a strat course, but one who pays a SG and SG will not strat so everything is normal.
It's true for cons I Do not operate the microwave serious, I do not lutil of your use, my faith will be seen later.
OVERALL OPINION
So I've had 10 days, Ive already done a concert with, instead of a Gibson Nighthawk Special jadore that. L jai pet the head, chuis dgout.
In short, I'm too plaizir fact, it is light, it's a really powerful, handle hyper accessible by leaning against her cot head, and ca ... ca me reulou thou coward, she falls from the cot of the head, jarrive not understand how this is possible. It is really too slight wholesale ... Finally, you should try standing hallucinate.
Gadjo good without my stinky, I could not pay me a Epiphone, chuis like "you want an SG? Take the Gibson or nothing" So I do not hsit long before I take it (1,290 , 00). I think it's still too expensive for the quality of this filing on its skyscrapers, and I think what will increase further in the months ahead von.
Seeking an SG, I do it again this choice, but that pitetre Jorai davoir have waited more tunes for me to pay the Custom I do not know ........See less01harald11

UTILIZATION
The handle is a delight, a bit thinner than my Start with still a good grip (I have no hands lumberjack either ..)
I think we can consider that it is fast, although I find the term a bit ridiculous, with excellent access to acute, but it's not really a guitar shredder (it is written much like this? ) I have nothing against these people, and it is for everyone, but this guitar is, in my humble opinion, more a game for a little "roots" that tapping with both hands as typing, share the nuances it allows. well, it's a personal opinion and not allowed .. and then tie the extra lights does not really suit him, it was not designed for it ..
very slight, lean a little towards the head (quite large on the models of the time) but nothing really annoying
SOUNDS
This is the most interesting, of course.
from the first notes, instinctively, I took to play some piece of doors, and even at low volume, without any preliminary adjustment, it sounds the fire of God!
I play either on an old Marshall tube or directly into a multi track depending on the circumstances, and in both cases, the magic is there (a little more with the amp anyway)
micro grave is accurate, with just enough of drooling for good rhythmic blues not too clean, for example ..
in the bridge position, it is a wonder! with distortion moderate, we obtain an expressive and impressive finesse a bite .. hard to describe but instantly recognizable!
Once revised, the pots volume settings allow for enough, especially in the second half of the race
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for a year or so, but I really like that since his time at the maker a few months ago (I think that buying a guitar of this age, it's a budget that 'there should be anyway.)
This is an authentic instrument, which makes you faithfully what you put into the qualities and defects.
at a cost of less than 1000 euros is a bargain in my opinion, even if it is obviously not an insignificant sum for most of us ..
say that the price of two cake-it was an instrument of high quality and designed to last, proof!See less00Fred7582

I have chosen my camp.
OVERALL OPINION
-I got it secondhand in ninety-four (94) to € 550. Before, I had an Aria Pro II-the cat. which has since remained in its case!.
-The handle of the SG is by far his strong point, but its light weight and humbuckers that sound good fats should not be forgotten (although some prefer to change to a more modern, more accurate ... must see ! I am willing to exchange a pair of PAF against the original EMG ...!). It appears that his weak point is its lack of sustain, compared to a Les Paul ... of course! Otherwise weaknesses I see no ... Even the color of the case, we ended up getting used to ...
-Recently I had an Ibanez in the hands ... I was lost ... I could not find even the octave !!!.. For me the CS has become a habit, almost a drug ... I Gibson!
I have never tried the SG copies, there are yet many in the stores, after I'd go see comments from owners of other copies Epiphone ...
-For me it was an exellent deal, even though at the time I do not realize ... it's worth several times its purchase price, although I find that the price in stores, for a guitar as basic that the initial investment has already been depreciated several times, is a bit high.See less10Pucelle_Dabidjan

OVERALL OPINION
Ringing beautifully, this standard is an instrument to play nice. The finish of the handle and net bad and the cheap wooden button, cotent overall points. The guitar also score a bowl, putting even small hiccups prcits forward. But in the register of SG, the gibson is lovely runner. Only the tokai ls 155 and some guitars luthiers prtendre can surpass this guitar (more fun to play because the sleeves even more effective, less Chres, to drink more and more pointed finite). But the two guitar mics prcites nont not Gibson. A lment here that makes the difference.

Access to acute issue, the two notches give access can not be easier. The guitar has a weight Interestingly, neither too light nor too heavy.
Point of view is very simple setting, we have a tone knob and volume microphone. This is convenient because it can have the volume all the way to the bridge pickup with distortion and a lower volume in the neck pickup for a less saturated clean, cleaner.
Unfortunately it is out of tune faster than bcp my fender, a flaw that cost him points aggregate
SOUNDS
I play a Mesa / Boogie Mesa and torque / SG ... it sounds like hell! The saturated a little too clean to my liking, so I reduced the volume of the neck pickup and all is well ^ ^. Of course, it does not have the charm of a telecaster in clean, but it's not really comparable ...
on the other hand in distortion is incredible! The sound is very hot, super high output level and harmonic shout! The sustain is endless ... This guitar is really great when you love powerful rock or blues fat.
I put 8 because the clean would be a little bit more slam that would have greatly increased its charm! I find it in distortion is really nothing to say!
OVERALL OPINION
I have this guitar for 6 months and I would do it chosen! Currently I have a Start and a Tele US, I do not expect my Gibson it has also defined a clean than Fender, but clean would have benefited from more slamming all faith ... it is still a matter of taste and it can be fixed by changing the pickups.
In distortion is the best guitar I played. Power and heat at will!See less00brew

UTILIZATION
SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSPLENDIDE !!!!!!!!!!
Lightweight and balanced, the game is very nice and fast access to acute perfect.
The only criticism that tends to return regularly covers the handle. It is round, rather large and varnishes.
I understand that some people find fault with (small hands or used Fender / Ibanez for example), in my case not the smallest fingers in the world with a drop of polish on a regular basis and this guitar is awesome was quick to take to a guitarist in shorts and cap!
SOUNDS
OH
MON
GOD!
This is the legend that is singing!
A very wide range of sounds full, warm, round, clear, variations of play that give chills with microphones reagents wish! And that's just for the Clean!
The settings are accurate and nothing but the guitar (four knobs!) Can be varied sounds, styles, etc ...
The amp is left alone with a loop station and it would feel to be able to change the scratch!
In terms of a range of sound more "punchy", the microphones are great! (The guitar is made for the same time!)
They take very good saturation, harmonics come out beautifully, and we understand what we do! Blues tend to sound "metal" sharp and incisive, this guitar line in a cold sweat!
OVERALL OPINION
More than a musical instrument, is a gem! from a legend!
I am the proud owner for a short year and I do it again this choice with his eyes closed!

This guitar allows you to reach the higher frets more easily because of the shape of the contour neck heel. This guitar comes with two humbucker pickups, two volume control knobs, and two tone control knobs. It's pretty versatile guitar and a great mahogany wood body and neck. It's a little thinner tone that the Gibson Les Paul basically because of the thinner body style.
UTILIZATION
The features are pretty minimal on this guitar. They don't have pull switches or any coil tapping push pull knobs of any kind. This is a straight up rockers guitar and a pretty basic set up as you would imagine a Gibson guitar being.
The tone of these guitars are excellent for hard rock and metal playing. They have a great fine warm tone that is very reminiscent of its predecessor the Gibson Les Paul. The tone is a little bit thinner but more focused in my opinion. It's much easier to get a good clean tone from his guitar than being from a Gibson Les Paul.
SOUNDS
I love the way this guitar sounds with a good hard rock high gain amplifier such as a Marshall amplifier, Mesa boogie amplifier, or any other amplifier they can get in the high gain saturation regions. It will take a good load of saturation very easily and be able to hear each note pretty crisp and clear because of the fine-tuning that this guitar has. Overall this is an amazing guitar an excellent look and feel.
OVERALL OPINION
I highly recommend this guitar to anyone looking for a good players guitar that can be used for recording and even large amounts of gigging. This is a great guitar for someone who needs a solid instrument for a bedroom player as well. They are readily available in the used section and classifieds. And you can also find them new online or in most guitar retailers. I love the feel of these guitars and for the price you can find them at it is a no brainer for me.See less00iamqman

It has a nice pearl block inlay which really sets the look of this guitar off. it's a nice well-balanced guitar and the body is a little thinner than a Gibson Les Paul but still retains much of the influence that it takes from the Gibson Les Paul guitar. The neck is going to be a much more versatile neck because you're able to reach the higher friends easier than you would a Gibson Les Paul guitar.
SOUNDS
This guitar works in just about any amplifier that you have. I primarily like these guitars any medium to high gain amplifier setting. So if you have a good Marshall amplifier or some other amplifier or a good power to distortion then this guitar will sound very excellent in that setting. This guitar has a good focused tone that is very intense and brilliant. I preferred this tone over a Gibson Les Paul tone and little bit more but just slightly only because of the versatility and thinner lighter tone that is has.
This guitar sounds great when you couple it with effects pedals or distortion pedals as well. So if you have a clean amp such as a fender twin reverb or some other clean amp then you'll need a distortion pedal so this guitar will work good with that equipment as well.
OVERALL OPINION
I highly recommend this guitar to anyone looking for a good professional high gain or recording guitar. It has a great look very good balance and seal throughout the body and next of the guitar. It's a beautiful color of red anxious to warm tone as well.

The handle is nice of course (not the handle of an ibanez versatile) and SG shape allows easy access to the treble.

Very good guitar, versatile, with a predisposition for the distortion, but with a clear sound quite cristallin.Je used with a Tech 21 trademark 300 and 2 2x12 ENGLvh pro box and it's the bomb! Reputation precedes Ca its fair value.

Access to acute (recent freight) is it easy?
The cutting of the guitar makes the game accessible to treble.
Ergonomics is it good (in terms of shape, weight ...)?
This guitar does not sting the nose, it is balanced. The weight is correct and do not hurt the shoulder or the back during a show.
Do you get a good sound easy? ...
In overdrive, actually. On the bridge pickup is very easy to get a good big sound of the 70s (especially with a Marshall DSL100).
As against the clean sound is very hard to work, it will tend to "crunch" very easily and it is not easy to find the "sweet"
SOUNDS
They are suitable to your style of music?
Being a fan of hard rock, and part of a group of French rock and metal, this guitar so versatile Demeur, but it should not be the only one in the list of matoss. Personally, I completed a Epiphone Union Jack Supernova (ES355 form), and this allows me to work my sweetest melody in favor of a more energetic of the SG
With what (s) amplifier (s) or effect (s) do you play?
Marshall DSL 100 + Cab. But my guilty pleasure is still the Marshall DSL401, a 40W combo much more accurate in terms of sound. More easily get something decent.
I also spend a multi effects BOSS ME-70 effects for fun, without too much distortion or overdrive touching for me that are just as bad. The overdrive the tube amp can really use this guitar.
What are the sounds you prefer, you hate?
I love hard rock sound which brings into overdrive. I do not sound too heavy of a distortion in the neck pickup, too rough for me.
OVERALL OPINION
How long have you use it?
Over 6 years now, and never get tired.
What is so special that you like most and least?
Its unique manufacturing that continues over time. The smell of varnish and mahogany which gives a soul to the guitar. What can we blame him ..
Have you tried many other models before buying it?
A favorite of youth, bought his eyes closed.
How would you rate the quality / price?
At the time unacceptable, I have the gibson most expensive in the history

Very nice finish, bindings "over the frets" very clean, nickel inlays, beautiful wood ... that you ask for?
UTILIZATION
The handle, the "Profile 59" is impressive (it will surprise fans of Ibanez and other razor blades), but very ergonomic, very comfortable and fast. The access to the latest box is incredibly easy, which is typical of the SG. Only very slight downside: because of nitrocellulose varnish, the neck is very sticky and does not slip at all when the guitar is new. It will take about twenty hours before the inconvenience eventually disappear. After that, it's all good!
the guitar is light, excellent ergonomics, and the famous tendency to pitch down typical of SG is discreet and not a problem.
Finally a guitar very easy to handle.
One senses from the outset that we have the good stuff in his hands. You really feel the guitar vibrate, and it sounds well without plugging.
SOUNDS
Its level is also typical.
The 490R sounds round, creamy and warm wishes. A treat that both clean crunch or saturated. A real treat for the blues muy caliente, especially as the sustain is really so.
The 498T is both punchy and incisive. Very cantankerous, this microphone. It tends to be a bit garish in acute lees, which is not a problem since the tone knob has done its job: it is enough to down a bit to make adjustments.
Depending on the settings of amps, we can do almost anything, except the sounds that are crystal clear to forget right away. Otherwise, we may feel of jazz, blues, reggae, rock, hard rock, metal and even work, no problem. However, this guitar still requires the grain, his trademark, regardless of the style of music covered. She has a big character and that's why we love ...
On mine, the 498T, however, was remlacé by Angus Young Signature, which corresponded more to my musical register, and that blends well with the 490R.
OVERALL OPINION
I use this guitar for 5 years.
I tried several other models (61 Reissue, SG Special, Tokai ...) but it is on this that I chose.
I wanted an SG that sounds like an SG, and I have used.
An excellent guitar that perfectly matches what I wanted, and I do not separate myself.
The quality / price is very decent and even very good, provided that you choose the guitar as there are differences from one model to another. Mine, for example, a body in one piece mahogany with a perfect fit and aesthetically impeccable, while others have a two-part body with a mahogany less well off and less flattering (well, we do not talk wood crate either, eh!)
In short, I would do the same choice without hesitation.See less10joejolomb
