Epiphone Gothic Series SG Electric Guitar

No longer available at zZounds
Get the classic look and sound of the SG at an extremely affordable price.

The playable neck and long sustain of the SG make it an excellent guitar for metal and other heavier genres of rock. The Epiphone Gothic Series SG gives the classic model a fitting exterior to match the dark and dense tones its capable of producing with an all black finish and gothic appointments on the twelfth fret and headstock. With a mahogany body and dual uncovered humbuckers, the Epiphone Goth SG churns out the resonant low tones needed for drop-D chugging and scorching solos. It's no coincidence that Black Sabbath axeman Tony Iommi built his career and crafted the Sabbath sound using an SG.

"Reasons to be an Epiphone SG-Goth..."

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
i think i will play this guitar till i die, or till it falls apart, it is that good a guitar.
Sound
It gets great sound, much better than anything I have played before (jacksons, squire strats etc)
Features
it didn't come with anything, just the guitar, but it goes fantastically with the stuff i bought at the same time (birthdays are great, so much stuff...), a Peavey Rage 158 amp, a marshall mini-amp. it just gets great sound whatever its played through. it sound particularly great through my brother's 300 watt beast of an amp :)
Quality
Epiphone make great guitars, the only problem i am having is that it goes out of tune quite quickly, but that be the new strings or that i have my bedroom window open all day...
Manufacturer Support
I haven't dealt directly with Epiphone, but the shop i went through to purchase it was extremely helpful, ordering it in from a different part of the country due to a shortage.
