An SG Custom That Continues the "Inspired by Gibson" Legacy
Born in the early 1960s, the SG established itself as a rock benchmark thanks to its ergonomics and responsiveness. The Epiphone "Inspired by Gibson" version captures the spirit of the original SG Custom, with a high-end presentation and attention to detail that make it an elegant piece for both stage and studio.
Who Is It For and What Styles?
Versatile and immediately comfortable, this SG Custom is aimed at intermediate to expert guitarists seeking an expressive and responsive electric guitar. From rock and hard rock riffs to blues leads, as well as indie, punk, or classic metal, it covers a broad spectrum while remaining easy to set up and play daily.
Sound
The mahogany body and neck provide pronounced mids, generous sustain, and a quick attack. The ebony fingerboard adds definition to the highs. The pair of Epiphone ProBucker Custom humbuckers delivers vintage SG tones: full lows, punchy mids, and precise highs. Traditional 2 volumes/2 tones wiring combined with the 3-position selector allows for fine blending between neck and bridge pickups. The 12" fingerboard radius favors clean bends and low action, while the LockTone Tune-O-Matic/Stop Bar combo and Graph Tech nut stabilize tuning and intonation, even during aggressive playing.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
Delivered with a premium gig bag, the guitar is ideally paired with a set of 10-46 electric strings, a comfortable leather or nylon strap, a quality 6.35 mm instrument cable, and a clip-on tuner. For frequent transport, opt for a hard case in SG format. A stable guitar stand will protect the instrument between sessions.
