    UTILIZATION

    The handle is rather round, fairly comfortable but the varnish hangs a bit.
    Access in acute is a total disaster for those with large hands like me, strangely it's even worse than a gibson sg. MODEL is the SG wants AC: dsl for a fan of SG, but not jvois how we can say that Access in acute is good on this type of guitars. Unplayable for me to pass the 15th box must be in the hands of contortionist Manir not possible.
    Ergonomics uh, the thing to hook the strap is derrire I have misplaced the dvisser and drill the metal plate with screws to the back of the handle position sg standard: the balance has become much better ---> quilibrage the rot of a guitar to avoid having to make a hole in a metal plate is a little loose.
    2 points less for the placement of the strap lock (totally stupid), 1 enmoins for access to the worst acute gibson sg That a

    SOUNDS

    I'm pretty metal, I had the scratch to play the ACDC and stuff of rock & roll like Nashville Pussy: The sound is the! it's perfect standard for the price! better than piphone and trs far: I insist.
    The pickups come up against death, I ht era Japanese copy (remember the brand) of 600 francs rpute paff gibson good: I thought the bridge pickup replaced by the one but those supplied with the guitar are much better my taste.
    Its a good round, warm, fat yum yum, ds amp branch marshal, a pti crunch, and we look forward to all the oldies like ACDC there silent.
    And even to play death metal, well jdlaisse happy from time to time my ibanez and my ESP to toy with ca, ca does not have the grain cold EMG81 or 85 but ca colors the sound of Manir tr s nice.
    The gain is not the trs levl is a DIFFERENT MODEL gibson, but not forcment worse, but you know you have an SG in my hands.
    the volume and tone knobs are l, but the sound palette is wider on a gibson: trs not effective ....

    OVERALL OPINION

    A little over a year of use
    quality price ratio close to perfect compared to other brands (and that Thomann is still the top margin).
    I repeat, this scraper (jai TFW chopp a good model), is the street all copies epiphone I've tried, even 500 euros jla take it rather than the piphone.
    A great product that I recommend highly trs

    So parts factory BC Rich in Asia, assembled in Germany
    22 cargo, two humbucker (humbucker)
    Bridge type les paul.
    Two volume knob, two tone knobs
    Bolt, for the price, this is normal.

    I put a 2 because of the varnish made in asia shit, lack of finish.

    UTILIZATION

    The neck, rather agreeable, and report of guitars of this price, nothing to do with Gibson or Epiphone SG, the neck is low, access to acute shit.
    In terms of weight, shape, balance, well such is a skyscraper shaped SG so ..?
    She slumps .. handicap by playing up ...
    For sound, well, home is blah, the neck pickup is rotten and saturates quickly, the bridge pickup is not bad.

    SOUNDS

    So its perfect for me after modification
    micro is a change of an emergency, but after changing it's nice, without more, a small combo sh2/sh4 and go ..
    I use it on two head of tube amps orange and marshall 4x12 with bodies.

    I hate the original sound,
    I put 5 after change.
    And yet, it's always vis a vis the price ..

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for 1year,
    I love beautiful copy of the form sg gibson.

    Now, I take exception when I read nonsense like this: I purchased a 500th, better than epiphone!!
    My god how low even compared her, this thing has a g-400?
    And how can we even say it is a lot next to a gibson?

    For three, I understand anything .. reserved to the decor, and even!
    Irritates me to see his opinions as his, with such a lack of objectivity.

    I wanted to get rid, but I am ashamed to sell it!

    Made in Asia, it is a copy of the entry-level Gisbson SG.
    23 frets, knob of Tone and volume of micro slecteur + 3 positions.
    Humbuckers.

    UTILIZATION

    Channel varnish, rather thin, frets a little grazing.
    Dsquilibre trs labeled to mcaniques, not lcher the guitar because it involved standing pitches down!
    Poor placement of inserts strap.
    Medium finish (burrs).
    Access in acute is correct but the game on the 2nd octave gives a weak report, particulirement on whether and high E strings.
    The sound can be irrgulier in the treble.

    SOUNDS

    The sound seems right in the bass but the highs are weaklings. The game is avoid shred.

    SOUNDS

    The sound seems right in the bass but the highs are weaklings. The game is avoid shred.
    The highs are significantly under-dvelopps, may be because of humbuckers that support the bass.

    I would say this guitar of quality is better suited to a rhythm for a game.

    I play with a Harley Benton 80w amp and a multi-effects pedals DP150.

    OVERALL OPINION

    The report qualitprix seems correct, but careful finishing, Thomann delivered me two copies for the 1st round of the silent guitar curd (you could see the bare wood!) And yet this guitar bore the label of quality CONTRL?

    A note that the HBS 580 is 125 euros and the test of the Consumers' Association in Germany has placed in the best of its class <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.test.de/themen/freizeit-reise/test/-E-Gitarren-Startersets/1448179/1448179/1448670/" target="_blank">

    SOUNDS

    Very average, I had an amp from the same brand and had a big "buzz" continuously in terms of volume, because I sold everything I do not know if it's in. came from the guitar or amp (HARLEY BENTON CG-15, incidentally is a big crap, I do recommend it to anyone) using short frankly, even for beginners, in addition to the micro switch is screwed up after few months (although I used to play a lot of ratm, this is normal in. ..) and it is true that in the treble, the sound was rotten (micro?) &%&%& % &% especially not buy, it's a very bad copy of SG, if you want one, the first thing to check is the neck, frets must stop before the body of the guitar, not continue ( check the pictures) ...
    frankly, the sound is awful ....
    on the other hand is true that she is beautiful to watch but to play in. ...
    Me I have since found a copy of the mark sg harper and there .... the dream, thousands of light years of this crap .... harley benton
