Classic SG Bite With Pelham Blue Attitude
If you want that snarling SG thing without dropping Gibson money, this Epiphone SG Standard hits the sweet spot. It delivers the midrange punch, fast feel, and slick Pelham Blue vibe that begs to live on stage, not just in a bedroom.
Mahogany SG Body With Pelham Blue Swagger
This is the classic SG recipe: a contoured, double cutaway mahogany body that feels light on the shoulder but still has the density to ring and sustain. You get easy access to all 22 frets, so ripping high-register leads feels natural instead of like a reach.
The gloss Pelham Blue finish looks classy and a little dangerous under lights. It is the kind of color that turns heads without screaming for attention, and the bound fretboard detail gives it that extra touch of old school class.
SlimTaper Neck That Lets You Play Faster
The glued-in mahogany neck has Epiphone’s SlimTaper C profile, which means it fills your hand just enough for control but never feels bulky. If you are into quick riffs, big bends, or long sets, this profile stays comfortable and out of the way.
A laurel fingerboard with a 12 inch radius and 22 medium jumbo frets keeps things smooth. Chords in the first position feel natural, and when you start bending up high, notes stay clear instead of fretting out. Pearloid trapezoid inlays give you that familiar SG look every time you glance down.
ProBucker Humbuckers With Classic SG Growl
The ProBucker 2 in the neck and ProBucker 3 in the bridge are voiced to live in that vintage SG zone. The bridge pickup has the grind and cut for rock rhythms and solos, while the neck fattens up for creamy leads and warm chords.
Each pickup has its own volume and tone control, plus a three way toggle, so you can fine tune your gain and top end for any rig. Roll the bridge tone back for thick, singing leads, or park the selector in the middle for punchy, articulate rhythm tones that sit right in the mix.
Hardware Built For Real World Playing
The LockTone Tune O Matic bridge and Stop Bar tailpiece keep things locked down, so you can dig in without worrying about tuning drift. Grover Rotomatic tuners and a Graph Tech nut work together to keep tuning stable through bends, retunes, and long gigs.
Nickel hardware, the large black batwing pickguard, and tasteful plastic appointments nail the classic SG aesthetic. At around 7.2 pounds, it feels light enough for long nights but still has enough mass for sustain and punch.
