Epiphone Review: SG 310

Epiphone Electric Guitars



History:

Purchase: I paid 200 dollars for this guitar off of musicians friend

What I Like About This Epiphone SG 310: Well first off i was a bigginer guitarist before purchasing this guitar and pretty much just wanted a guitar that looked nice and played well for around 200 bucks cosmetically this guitar is beautifull i got the cherry red one it looks like a gibson sg the finish is descent a little cheezy but what can you expect from a guitar made in indonesia for 200 bucks? so yeah the guitar is pretty looking and you can pretend its a real sg thats fun

What I Do NOT Like About The Epiphone SG 310: where to start? well the neck is crap its extremly slow because of the cheezy finish on it and its sooooo freakin wide i can barley strick a chord and that is not my style of playing all od the accesories on the guitar are crap there complet cheapies the tone and volume knobs are crooked the pickup switch comes off the input jack comes loose easily its a cheasy guitar thats all i can say oh and it goes out of tune faster then a bum on a ham sandwich wich is really annoying also the pickups are weak and you cant get anywhere near the original sg sounds out of it that and the fret work is horrible practically cut myself running down the fretboard

Epiphone SG 310 Quality Rating: again cheap cheap wood cheap accesories cheap pickups cheap fretwork cheap finish not a great guitar you can get better for the price i promise



Review Summary: cheap guitar and although it looks cool (wich it really does) you can spend your money on somthing far superior like a standard tele from fender of the schector omen 6 think before you buy it and really try it out in the music store dont buy of the internet

Rating of this Epiphone product: 2
