Epiphone SG Tribute Plus
Inspired by the legendary Gibson SG, this Tribute Plus version by Epiphone features iconic design elements: a sculpted mahogany body with pronounced bevels, a flamed maple veneer top, and a vibrant finish (Cherry Burst, Ebony Burst, or Vintage Sunburst). The bolt-on mahogany neck adopts the 60s-style SlimTaper Rounded C profile, known for its smooth and comfortable playability. The contoured heel makes upper fret access easier, enhancing solo expressiveness.
Sound and Versatility
Equipped with two Epiphone humbuckers — 650R at the neck and 700T at the bridge — this SG delivers a powerful and balanced tone, perfect for rock, blues, or hard rock. Ceramic magnets ensure dynamic response and strong presence in the mix. The dual volume and tone control system allows for a wide sonic palette, from vintage crunch to modern saturation.
Comfort and Finish
The laurel fretboard, adorned with pearloid trapezoid inlays, features 22 medium jumbo frets for precise and expressive playing. The LockTone Tune-O-Matic bridge and Stop Bar tailpiece ensure excellent tuning stability and sustain. Die-cast machine heads with oil bath provide reliable tuning, even after long playing sessions.
Who is it for?
Whether you're just starting out or already comfortable on stage, the Epiphone SG Tribute Plus supports your musical journey with style and efficiency. It’s an excellent first electric guitar or a step-up for players seeking better performance without breaking the bank.
