Wow I'm really late to this Epi 61 SG review, thanks! Used cherry like yours just showed up at a local store, and I've been wanting an SG with Gibson Burstbuckers (I'd prefer 1,2 but I'll take 2,3). The 61 Gibson SG Standard now have BB1,2 but they're 3x the price of this used one, so this seems like a no brainer.

Hello Grumpy, My first time here.

I have one of these in SSS. It's fantastic, except for the switch. That said, brand is almost everything to most people. This guitar is long forgotten for most people.

Only 3 latches my god what a disgrace😂😂😂

No wonder you have so few views ..this is rubbish bud.......won't be back soz

American made means nothing in relation to QC 😂 most American stuff is no better than any other countries in the world....Yank stuff ain't special tbh

How about learning how to EQ your amp properly.SMH

Is the fretboard made of pau ferro, not laurel?

Whammy bars are so dumb. Just make it a hardtail

Buy a Wilkinson replacement bridge with a brass block . Problem solved.

Stumbled on to your channel today. Thanks for the fun video! Subscribed.

ive got one these i really love it

got mine at $589 on clearance at GC no question love the finish!

Your right on the Supro Delta King 10 being a 5 watt but the Supro Delta King 12 is 15 watt and I have one with all the specs

The Supro Delta King 10 is a 10 Watt. The Delta King 12 is a 15 watt and is loud enough to play in clubs. The Delta King 5 is 5 watt....

Good pedal for the price at the time this video came out, it's a shame it's no longer worth it just for the price increase only for peoples who are easily impressed by a youtube channel

I Got the same guitar today. It's beautiful. but it wont stay in tune after playing two chords. I don't know what to do. I think the strings are getting stuck in the nut because when I tune no movement in pitch changes till a full turn. I have no idea how to fix it.

I really like mine too, plays great and sounds so good! Great review!

Appreciate that comparison a lot! I was tempted by the S2 custom, but I have a DGT SE, and i love the DGT! For an extra 200 euro I can actually get a CE 24, only thing is, im not 100% sold on tge thin pattern neck, but it will have the 85/15 in it. Again, thank you 👍

Yours is the best demo I’ve seen yet!

Great unboxing, completely agree with you on G & L guitars, it is ashame they are not recognized more. Both their domestic and import line. Alot of quality, sound and aesthetics for a reasonable price. Proud owner of a 2013 Fullerton Deluxe Legacy that I would not trade for nothing. More in my future.👍. Great job from a new subscriber🎸

Who was the inspiration?

that guitar is awesome cause i have it

Nice I gone buy soon

Bla bla bla. If you can't modd it, get a squire then Einstein.

Im sure Kramer's whole idea with this guitar was to be a mod platform, hence the mahogany body. Thats what your paying for, the body and neck woods. And the paint. Everything else is to be upgraded with the good stuff. GraphTech nut, Gotoh tuners, vintage 80s era ESP bridge with brass saddles, and a Bare Knuckle Warpig with CTS 500k coil split pot. Dudes!! She's a f**cking screamer!! Not as great as her mama was, but close ;)

I was checking out used Teles online a couple of years ago, just for kicks. Wasn't really in the market. But then I found that a local guy was selling the exact Modern Player you're holding. Your review and a couple of others convinced me to check it out. It was hardly played, and I think I paid $325 for it. True to your inspection and some of the comments here, the 5-way switch was pretty wimpy and not clicking into position, but was easily remedied when I replaced it with a Strat 5-way I had laying around. Sure, I might upgrade the tuners and the pickups at some point, but then again - maybe not! It's great the way it is, and it's really a chameleon because it can do just about everything! Jazz, blues, twang, rhythm, leads... Wouldn't you know that Fender hits a homer in terms of tone flexibility, traditional Tele-ness, good looks and price point - and then takes them off the market!

Hello there,sorry for your issue regarding your guitar,I was so close to buy this one,but after your review I decided not to buy it.Can you please recommend me a good one from Fender under 300 please.Many thaks👍

I just got a red one for $350 . That blue color is 👍

I completely agree with you on this. I was looking to buy a pedal board for the first time and like you I saw the prices for basically an oversized sheet of aluminum cost $80-$350. Like you I don't know as to why they are so much, They can say it's "development costs" but realistically there is nothing special about a slab of aluminum with hole slots for wire management. Honestly after I saw the ridiculous prices (which I would not pay more than $20) I am just going to go to my local hardware store and make my own out of nice wood or repurpose a random slab or metal I find lying around and add velcro.... It's isn't that complicated so I don't know why they try to charge you like it is.

I think that DLX refers to deluxe, I have heard them called deluxe on the HB videos when they are listed as DLX, why they cant just spell the word is beyond me. My CST-24 Deluxe came with Wilkinson pickups but I bought mine when they first came out before they changed over to using Roswell pickups, they have a nice crisp sound to them. Before I got this guitar I had not used this type of bridge before and had read that they were hard to intonate, but mine intonated just fine and it was only a very slight adjustment. I have quite a few Harley Benton guitars, some I have upgraded just for my own pleasure not because they needed it. I love them all, great value for money and well built! If I don't like the pickups I fiddle with my EQ pedal before changing them and 90% of the time I find a good tone that I am happy with.

I have to admit I am torn between an Epiphone SG Standard, the Epiphone 1961 SG (the one with Gibson pickups) and a full blown SG. I just played around with a Gibson SG Standard in the local Guitar Center and I have to admit that one felt special. I compared it to a couple of Epiphone 61 Standards (not the Gibson pickups) and to be honest the main differences were the body carving and the setup. The Gibson was set up very well, the Epis were both high but I could fix that. The Gibson was $1599 though and the Epis were $584. The reason I am tempted to go with the Epi with the Gibson pickups is I have the Epiphone 59 LP and it is a great guitar which also has the same Gibson pickups. The only real benefit I see to the Gibson over that higher end Epi is the resale value should you ever want or need to sell. The Gibson will definitely hold value better.

Your in the minority dude….this guitar is fantastic for the money….you suck

Very nice demo!!

Just found your channel. Sounded so Grumpy until I noticed your channel name.❤

Bah, I should've got the gold top instead of the vintage burst.

I have the same guitar, except mine was the SC-450Plus VB. Anyway I had the same problem with the tuners, ended up replacing them with a set of Wilkenson Deluxe, Kluson like tuners. The big problem for me was the stop bar tail piece. First time changing strings the studs came out, they had been shimmed with a couple slivers of wood. I put it all back together and ended up with a severe lean forward on the studs. So I looked around youTube found Phillip McNight's channel. In a video he said to wrap the studs in glue soaked newspaper and pound them into the guitar. It worked. Guitar has been fine for the last 3 years.

I played one of thse at GC in St Louis while I was supposed to be Les Paul shopping and I kept going back to it. Sounded really good through that Marshall DSL40!

I would seriously like to know how you got the tone for your overdrive sound.I am guilty of being a tone chaser and I am just lost

Heavier?🤣 Springsteen, Page Keith Richard’s Andy summers - Police I’m sure they didn’t whine they played for hours on stage. Anyways Fenders quality has dropped they are starting to suck

I love Fender Mustangs. The Fender Dynamic Vibrato (yes they got it right on the Mustang), the phase switching. Great guitars

Didn’t hoop mine. I just counted my Klones. 9. Why?

It looks fun. I bought a Steinberger Spirit Pro for travel. It works. Once you get used to getting the bridge balanced, it's OK.

Correction that would be 6 months ago. I also bought a Epiphone Les Paul classic $500 unfortunately the party is over

I bought this bad boy 2 months ago. I paid $549. Now it's 900.00. I like it better than all my guitars. I doubled my money in 2 months.

Swamp ass special

😂 crazy demo

Great video, and I smiled when you talked about MF's Stupid Deal, as it's how I got mine (as well as a second one for my son). I then smiled even more when you pulled out your Positive Grid 5w mini amp, as I have one of those too and I love the sound of the BS Carry on through it. Short 2 minute demo here if anyone wants to hear it in a high OD sound: th-cam.com/video/CxA7lgmJ2hQ/w-d-xo.html

flying monkeys, not birds....

Nice review.I'm having one shipped to me as I write.So your review was music to my ears.Pardon the pun.
