And now this year (2011) its the Epiphone custom shop limited edition 50th anniversary 1961 sg over the Gibsonv1961 reissue sg. Congrats to you Epiphone for 2 of the very best sg's ever made!
Gibson USA this is the second year in a rowe that the usa consumer report has put Epiphone sg's over your Gibson standard and your 1961 reissue sg's. Last year (2010) it was the Epiphone G-400 standard 1962 sg over the Gibson standard sg.
i wasted 1 year of my life playing a fender strat. i sold it for a gibson sg std and got addicted. i keep her safe in the case if i dont play and if i open the case my dick gets hard as a rock all over again. i love gibson and i always will <3
@FreakGuitar14 les paul because a les paul can do what an sg can do but an sg cant do what a les paul can do, im not saying that the sg stinks because i love the sg, but i think that the les paul is a better all around guitar, but try outa lot of both and see which is a better fit for you, and congratulations on buying a gibson!
@RedTV8888 what do you mean sg cant do what a les paul can do? the only difference is that a les paul is much heavier and more cumbersome when playing than an sg.
@tommyparadiso1122351 i just mean that a les paul has a lost more diversity when it comes to tone. for example, you can make a les paul sound just like an sg with its stripped down, balls ac dc sound, but its harder to get a les paul sound out of an sg. i don't mean to put down the sg because its one of my favorite types of guitars, but if this guy is gonna get what i'm guessing is his first gibson, i just think that the les paul would be the better choice. i apologize if i offended you.
@tommyparadiso1122351 well one of the reasons the Les Paul was reissued in 68 was because many guitarists realized the sound potential and power that the les paul body has versus the sg was a fatter sound with more midrange and power/sustain while the sg still has amazing tone but is more on the brighter side and is more on the treble side. both are great for all types of music, but if you want more power and chord depth with a darker/warmer feel, the les paul is the way to go. there IS a diff.
@FreakGuitar14 to be honest - just get an SG. it's cheaper, looks just as cool and your probably not really gonna notice the difference tone wise unless you get really picky and anal about it
@Max45090 not really, my friends got a studio and i got sg standard and boy are they different, substantially less wood on the sg and the lack of a maple top, they are very different
0:08 - 0:36 is the best moment. Tell me please, where can I find tab to this fragment. I try play this song but i can't. Maybe can you give me name of this song? I believe that you help me :))))))
@nolivegamer You can sit and try work it out for yourself.
The man riff bit doesnt sound hard, just a cliche heavy metal pedal tone E (or lower if the guitar is downtuned, might be D) pentatonic riff with some pinch harmonics thrown in. Try doing pull offs on the lowest string to the rhythm of the riff using notes of the Minor Pentatonic Blues with a little bit of natural minor i think.
hey. i have a gibson sg standard and i just want to say, if you dont have one go and get one now!!!!!!!!!!!! i have also a les paul and the sg is the fucking best!!!!
The SG is just so modern, I love it. It's like the Les Paul's revisit (literally). I love the deeper, thicker sound that you get out of that 498T combined with the solid mahogany body. The SG is just one great guitar, and a classic. Good job Gibson!
@EHXGUY It looks like you don't own an SG and want one very much! It's ok, you can insult the guitar because you don't own one. It won't change anything :)
I wish people would get it out of their ridiculous heads that SG's aren't just for playing heavy metal and AC/DC.. Look who used them in the 60's, George Harrison, Clapton, Mick Taylor, Robby Kreiger, Pete Townshend, Hendrix and many more..
This guitar's reputation has been ruined by the likes of Angus Young..
@spyonthesoftparade I would actually have to agree with you. I mean, also, Derek Trucks also uses an SG, and he plays blues. Most won't take the time to appreciate the guitar's versatility.
@dan270145139 whel i own an epiphone sg but as the difference( imo ) doesnt realy matter and gibson owns epiphone (so its practicly the same market) ill give thumbs up!:D
What's with the color change? Why can you only get the classic herritage cherry look on the cheaper SG Special but on the SG Standard the finish is just cheesy looking.
@PaulBeladino Sounds to be a typical Black Sabbath-esque Good starting point for that kind of tone is like this: Guitar - Solidbody Pickup - Bridge; Humbucker Gain - 6-7 Volume - 9 Bass - 8 Midrange - 5 Treble - 8 and a bare touch of reverb, if your ampifier has it. Also, use a pretty gnarly pick attack.
@ohyeah061696 yes but the sg is more twangy and heavier. in my opinion the les paul has a nicer sound to it. from amazing cleans to brilliant rock sounds
Who's the dude testing these gibsons? He's the same one playing in the Les Paul Studio demo, and he effing rocks! Anyone's got a clue? Maybe a great player with a great, sadly unknown, catalog?

@guitarbraver If you want to play all styles of music rock metal jazz classical,the work horse is the standard thats what im saving up to get becuse i want a guitar that does it all. Most people like the standard better. my friend has one it handles classical well then full out shredding. theres lots of forums on the subject. hope this helps!
i got a sg special because i couldnt afford a les paul and i must say the sg fits me better than a les paul becuz the les pauls too heavy and has not much acess to the upper frets. :)
@AJH0014 oh, and when i say "better" tokai's . . . i mean the collectors items that purists drool for . . . not just a random Tokai. I thought i would elaborate before u tried to refute me with a late model Tokai or a beat-up illy-stored Love Rock.
@AJH0014 sorry to burst your bubble but one of the better tokai's are pretty much the same price and i've played my SG hard, as have friends of mine almost trashed theirs and we've never seen a break or a stress fracture. I am sorry that that has been your experience though. Mahogany, though on the soft side, has great resonance -- nothing stupid about using mahogany, friend. Take care and keep playing, man.
The goldtop will have a lil bit more 'tonal range' ..and of course...more sustain.
If you play alot of lead...the SG is still better (and naturally a litte more defined and sharp tone)
I Have a nica SG custom....best sounding guitar I have played overall. But I play my WASHBURN IDOL more..the gibsons are just a lil heavy and have fat necks so you cant play them as fast.
Hey, I really like the sound and looks of SG, but my hands are a bit too small for gibson neck (including the 60s slim taper)... Could anyone indicate some other SG-style guitar of similar quality for playing ac/dc, metallica, megadeth, black sabbath? cheers!
there is a make called indie who do some real good guitar good as gibson not better lol had one myself i had the shredder thats good but urrm yeah theyre british though so if your american i dunno lol
Get a Fender Strat. The pickups on a Strat are nice and hot but if you hate the annoying hum then get some Lace Sensors because they're just the same but withouth the hum. The neck on a Fender is nice and thin and you can play really fast on one. Usually people who don't like Gibson necks like the way that Fender feels. Just go to GuitarCenter and try some guitars out until you find one that you like. Also if you want a guitar with an SG body, try a Yamaha SG.
lp's have a lot more bass and sustain..very heavy tho,pain in the ass playing while standing!!
sg's tend to be neck-heavy yet not all!mine is very well ballanced but played with others with issues!!
sg's are fairly priced lp's are not..that's the only sure thing!!if u have the xtra buck try the sg 61 reissue...awesome guitars and still cheeper than the lp..cheers
@SuperJaykay93 If you are talking about a LP STUDIO and not a LP Standard I'd say the SG. If comparing the SG Stdrd and LP Stdrd I'd say it's a matter of taste and preferance - but the SG Stdrd is a bargain compared to the LP Stdrd. Only way to decide is to try both out - might be some ergonomic drawbacks to the SG - but it is awesome to play and you'll fall in love with the sound instantly ;) (oh yeah - I have a SG stdrd so I might be biased but I tested extensively before deciding)...
Don't be fooled by how amazing this guitar is sitting down and playing, I played a lot of guitars in the guitar stores years ago and nothing played as good as a SG Standard sitting down, standing up is a whole differant ballgame I prefer Explorers now due to better balance no more neck heavy problems for me Explorer is probably the most balanced Gibson ever made.

@paulorules if you like heavy guitar i would take the goldtop, but if you dont take the SG, both are great...but you decide

@paulorules
The goldtop will have a lil bit more 'tonal range' ..and of course...more sustain.
If you play alot of lead...the SG is still better (and naturally a litte more defined and sharp tone)
I Have a nica SG custom....best sounding guitar I have played overall. But I play my WASHBURN IDOL more..the gibsons are just a lil heavy and have fat necks so you cant play them as fast.

Hey, I really like the sound and looks of SG, but my hands are a bit too small for gibson neck (including the 60s slim taper)... Could anyone indicate some other SG-style guitar of similar quality for playing ac/dc, metallica, megadeth, black sabbath? cheers!

Get a Fender Strat. The pickups on a Strat are nice and hot but if you hate the annoying hum then get some Lace Sensors because they're just the same but withouth the hum. The neck on a Fender is nice and thin and you can play really fast on one. Usually people who don't like Gibson necks like the way that Fender feels. Just go to GuitarCenter and try some guitars out until you find one that you like. Also if you want a guitar with an SG body, try a Yamaha SG.

lp's have a lot more bass and sustain..very heavy tho,pain in the ass playing while standing!!
sg's tend to be neck-heavy yet not all!mine is very well ballanced but played with others with issues!!
sg's are fairly priced lp's are not..that's the only sure thing!!if u have the xtra buck try the sg 61 reissue...awesome guitars and still cheeper than the lp..cheers

@SuperJaykay93 If you are talking about a LP STUDIO and not a LP Standard I'd say the SG. If comparing the SG Stdrd and LP Stdrd I'd say it's a matter of taste and preferance - but the SG Stdrd is a bargain compared to the LP Stdrd. Only way to decide is to try both out - might be some ergonomic drawbacks to the SG - but it is awesome to play and you'll fall in love with the sound instantly ;) (oh yeah - I have a SG stdrd so I might be biased but I tested extensively before deciding)...

Don't be fooled by how amazing this guitar is sitting down and playing, I played a lot of guitars in the guitar stores years ago and nothing played as good as a SG Standard sitting down, standing up is a whole differant ballgame I prefer Explorers now due to better balance no more neck heavy problems for me Explorer is probably the most balanced Gibson ever made.
