"The Gibson Voodoo SG: The Epitome of Awesome in Electric Guitars"

Overall:

(see rating details)

I recieved my Voodoo SG as a Chirstmas gift from my parents, and I love it. It's my first Gibson guitar, and now I know why they're so popular. If anyone ever stole it, I'd hunt them down and brutally kill them to get it back. If you want to seriously start to rock, then this is the perfect guitar for you.

Sound

The sound on this guitar is absolutely incredible. The tone of the sound really matches the "Voodoo" name. They really are right when they say the Voodoo SG has a "mojo" sound. I use a Marshall MG100 DFX amplifier, which gives you great sound quality out of this guitar.

Features

Well, there are no accessories that have anything to do with the sound of the guitar itself. Of course, the guitar has the basic volume and tone control knobs, but all guitars have those. But I love the hardshell case that it comes with. The snakeskin on the case is badass, and the black plush interior is both cool looking and protective to the guitar. There's even a little storage area in the case where you can put the extra gear for your guitar, like the strap and the pick.

Quality

The juju finish on the guitar is very awesome looking, and definitely fits the name and sound of the guitar. This guitar is also very durable. I've dropped it about three times, and there was no damage done. The only thing wrong with mine is that one of the tone control knobs broke off, but that's no big deal, because I can just put it back on anyway.

Value

This guitar is definitely worth its price.
