"Epi LE 1966 G400 PRO!!!"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
I got this guitar for a steal at an in-store location, but even at this price through zZounds, it's still a bargain considering the quality. The color I got was Pelham Blue, but it appears that zZounds doesn't offer the Pelham Blue 1966 LE. Too bad, it's a gorgeous finish on an SG style model. The sound - awesome, it can be whatever you want it to be, really versatile with the coil tapping PRO pickups. I got this over a Gibson 70's reissue SG with the mini-humbuckers costing 4x the price I paid, and to be honest, the Epi is a better deal. Want an SG, especially with a unique finish (not Red), this is a great way to go.
