I got the other SG in first lockdown,(the batwing one). Ive set it up dropped down to C tuning and dude its an absolute beast! Ended up getting the 2020 Les Paul (that sweet worn cherry) Epiphones quality in 2020 was EPIC. Finally got a Dove acoustic this year. Thats so well made and sounding too.... The way I see it is Ive got 3 really good guitars for UNDER the price of a US Gibson SG or LP that may not even feel as good as my Epiphones...I play the hell out all of my guitars so would always feel nervous about dinging my expensive Gibson. If u are considering an Epiphone DO IT! you wont be dissapointed
Brett, sounds so good that I've gone and bought the Gibby version. Really missed my old ''67 too so, now I feel like my old self again. Love that ole SG goodness bro.
Hey Brett ! Hope you & family are good. Nice iteration of the SG, definitely much cheaper than the Gibson build. It's OK for those who want an affordable version of the '61 series. To me, the neck is decisive and I prefer a chunkier neck '64 type (can't play on slim necks). The glossy finish & shiny metal parts make it look a bit... Chibson :/ But that's just me. After searching for years,I have finally found the SG I was looking for in the VOS format, with the chunky neck, nickel metal parts and a worn look and feel. Pre-owned, did not come cheap, but worth every penny. The pickups are unpotted Alnico III and sound magnificient ! Keep safe @home ! Cheers Brett
7 minutes ago i was like "no more guitars", but now i'm looking to sold somethings, anything, to get this piece of guitar... why???? GAS... i see them coming....
Just thinking about buying this beauty...really love the look of the vibrola but I don't want to use it and I'm scared of what would happen if I broke a string..is everything out of tune like with a spring based fender tremolo? Can I do double bends? Is there a method to "fix it"?
Love your videos, been following you since your first video. Quick question from your professional opinion, how is the fretboard (finger board ) is it smooth for bends or sandpaper feeling? Thank you
Hey Brett, top work mate. Great playing as usual, never boring, and you have a real knack with this format. Now, don't get a fat head or anything; I'm just sayin. Keep it up!
Hi brett kingman good day. Will you please give me Seymour Duncan hot rail set for my telecaster. I really need one for my project right now. Just reply to me if you are willing to give but I hope so HAHAHAHA I cant afford to buy those pickups.

Thanks for showing guitars us regular folks can actually afford.
This is one of the greatest guitars I’ve ever heard. Now I want.
My God the finish on that thing is gorgeous Brett and it sounds OK too!
Brett, thank you very much for reviewing and demoing this guitar. I love the versatility and sounds! Amazing stuff.
Me too, I thought I had enough guitars, not anymore now that you've planted this seed in my brain! Thanks Brett, I think.

Picked up mine two months ago. It is really a big step up from the old G-400 I use to have.

An excellent guitar and you can't beat the price ! I currently have one on order. Thanks for another great video.
best performance with this guitar i found on youtube...with best sound........i will buy it......thanks Bro´
Well done from Chicago, great demonstration, I've been looking at these kately
Very good demo, thanks 😊
Top Review , recently purchased this model....excellent guitar for the price
I have been asking for something like this for years - "Doesn't exist!" they've always told me. Now, apparently, it does. Thanks for the demo.
Sounds absolutely amazing in your hands! I hope it sounds good in mine. I think I'm sold!
Just Bought one a week ago. Installing a les trem 11 Today.

Wow sounds kickass man !
7 minutes ago i was like "no more guitars", but now i'm looking to sold somethings, anything, to get this piece of guitar...
why????
GAS...
i see them coming....
Same here. I just picked one up a few weeks back.
Man, that's a LOT of guitar for $549(!)
Brilliant vid, Epi smashin' it 👍
Monster!!
Brett I never ever heard you say a bad guitar you like them all but man can you play

Nice demo Brett.
Brett, did you find the different colour shades between the top/sides a little weird looking? They sound great through.
Love your videos, been following you since your first video. Quick question from your professional opinion, how is the fretboard (finger board ) is it smooth for bends or sandpaper feeling? Thank you
What do you think of the the new head brett? Which one do you like? The new or before this change?
Not even kidding within the first 20 seconds my phone crashed but nice vid

greeeat!
It's my ears or the LP standard 50s sounded more bright and airy that the sg? Fuller too
She's a beaut. I probably wouldn't use the whammy bar. The metal piece is nice, but is it just for looks? Does it have any tonal benefits?
Tone Is more clear. Also It prevents neck dive
Does anyone know if these have 50s wiring or modern?
For the price, is better the SG Custom 2020
Is Epiphone top 10?
Should be the other way Around...Gibson inspired by Epiphone
Could I do death metal on this? Lol
