RotcanX Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 Gibson SG Special vs Epiphone goth LP studio? What? Definitely go for the SG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xCHUBBSx Posted August 16, 2008 Author Share Posted August 16, 2008 Both are epiphone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JefferySmith Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 Both are epiphone! SG is a Gibson name. Do you mean the G-400? I know, I have gotten into the habit of calling all guitars of that type SG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWANG Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 I have the lp studio.. got a sunburst.. and I love it. For me the G400s advantages are: the back of the guitar doesn't dig into your ribs.. I have to wear my lp lower cause I'm skinny and that smarts. The G400 has easier upper fret access.. a pretty minor point I think. on the other hand, I'm sure the lp has a bit more sustain. but not as bright a tone. the lp is heavier, too. I don't like how close the controls are on the G400.. If you're talking about a bolt neck sg type epi.. go with the set neck goth studio.. I have about fifteen guitars.. I play my lp studio everyday.

Lerxst1281733995 Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Hmmm... A turd? or a piece of crap? Life is full of difficult decisions... If you want a guitar that's made of masonite, then go with the Goth LP... Can't say that masonite is very well known for its tone, though... If you want a plywood guitar, that has horrible pickups, useless tuners and probably needs a full on fret job right out of the box, then go for SG special..

RotcanX Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 Goth LP? Masonite? What? C'mon, Philippine 'mahogany' isn't that bad... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
layboomo Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 I'd save a little more and get something better if you can. "...Can't say that masonite is very well known for its tone, though..." Well actually Dano's are pretty famous for their tone and they were masonite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EpiEric Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 SG is a Gibson name. Do you mean the G-400? I know' date=' I have gotten into the habit of calling all guitars of that type SG.[/quote'] Epiphone now calls the G-400 an SG. It's part of the "SG Collection" with the G-400 being one of the models. The newer ones even have "SG" truss rod covers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
