Comments about Epiphone SG Special Electric Guitar (Assorted Colors):

I've never been a fan of the SG, but my son has wanted one for a couple of years. I bought him the red Epiphone SG Special for his birthday this weekend. We may be fighting over this guitar because it is a blast to play! I was pleasantly surprised by the tone on this guitar. The neck is thin and very fast and smooth. The finish is beautiful and I haven't found a blemish on it. "Cheap" guitars just keep getting better and better.

Comments about Epiphone SG Special Electric Guitar (Assorted Colors):

This guitar is the best instrument I've ever owned in the last 30 years! I play mostly late 60's rock and pop through a Line 6 amp and the action, tones and stamina make the Buffalo Springfield, Cream, Stones and Beatles come alive again! I would highly recommend this guitar to all my fellow players!

It gets the job done. Sure there is a fret buzz, but if you plug it into a solid amp it works great.

Comments about Epiphone SG Special Electric Guitar (Assorted Colors):

This guitar is really worth buying and it really sounds good. One day i was tuning mine and played Iron Man on it and it sounded like the actual tone Iommi used for the song! I use Ernie Ball Power Slinky Strings on mine and it sounds awsome it really gives me the heavy metal sound. I seriously recommend this guitar for anybody.
