Looks and sounds great but the QC needs checked!
BJHAN 16.02.2020
This is probably one of the best Epiphones that I've owned, both in feel, looks and sound.
The neck is quite chunky, but is surprisingly comfortable. No neck dive, and looks great in person.
Losing some point based on the QC, there's some corner cutting to be expected on guitars in this price range, but basic play-ability issues are hard to ignore. The main one being fret buzz, primarily in the lower fret range. I'm putting this down to the wraparound bridge but it will still require some tweaking to get right. Another issue I find, likely to do with the SG model - the jack is too close to the neck tone knob, making it a tight squeeze.
Overall, worth a shot - looks and sounds great, shame some of these issues couldn't be ironed out in the factory first.

Pros:
-The paint job on my product is flawless
-Holds tune
-Plays well (after a lot of setup)
-Feels very solid

Cons:
-Scratches on pickups???
-Fingerboard was pretty dirty when it came
-Sloppy drilling work on the truss rod cover
-Pickup switch nut was loose when it came

Conclusion: For the price i think its a good buy. Plays well, feels solid thing afterall and looks nice.

You can pay more for a different name on the headstock….
GuernseyCommander 01.01.2025
But why?

Honestly the finish quality is something the big brother brand must be envious of and worried about.

No finish issues at all and the most important thing;

It sounds amazing. This is a guitar that punches well above its weight/brand name.

Für den Preis unschlagbar!
ConradParadox 29.10.2020
Hab sie ursprünglich bestellt weil meine Wunschkandidaten von Epiphone nicht lieferbar waren. Ich kann nur sagen die 2020er Serie von Epiphone ist wirklich unfassbar gut!
Klare Empfehlung für alle vom Einsteiger bis zum Virtuosen.
Wurde ordentlich geliefert, Saitenwechsel und kurze Einstellung der Saitenlage - fertig.
Verarbeitung top und soundmäßig einige Klassen über den Erwartungen.
Leute, kauft diese Gitarre!
