Vintage Review: SG Copy

History:

Purchase: i bought this second hand from a classfieds ad.It cost me £70 and was a great investment.i needed my first electric guitar and this was it!

What I Like About This Vintage SG Copy: i like the tones you can get from this guitar,and the double cutaway makes it so easy to play.

What I Do NOT Like About The Vintage SG Copy: the pickups cannot handle high output. if you went to a gig with this and were using high distortion and volume you'd get major feedback.i played a gig thru a pa with it and it was fine.i dont like the overall make.i took out the pickups and the work was shoddy,soldering looked lazy and wood was carved roughly without much concern for quality.

Vintage SG Copy Quality Rating: poor construction, the guitar is poorly made but for a first guitar is surprisingly good.this is easily the best sg copy i have ever seen and in my opinion looks a bit better.

Review Summary: this guitar lacks lasting power,only really suitable as a starter or mybe a 2nd or 3rd guitar in case of an emergency.looks the business so i imagine it'd be easy to sell but i reckon ill keep it just for practice, sounds nice at low volumes.

Rating of this Vintage product: 3
