Description
Dubbed "The SG of the Future" by Epiphone, the all-new SG Modern Figured is a remarkable axe with undeniable looks, tone, and in-hand feel. It features a classic SG profile, with a mahogany body, AAA Flame Maple veneer top, and an eye-popping Trans Black Fade finish. Its pickups are something to behold as well: The vintage "P.A.F." sound SG aficionados love is on full display with the SG Modern Figured's ProBucker humbuckers, thanks to '50s style wiring, CTS electronics, and 18% nickel silver unit bases and covers, which is the same alloy originally used by Gibson at the Kalamazoo factory. As part of the Inspired By Gibson Collection, you'd expect nothing less. And thanks to a comfortable Asymmetrical Slim Taper neck profile, the trapezoid-inlaid 24-fret Ebony fingerboard is an absolute breeze to navigate. Other features include Grover Locking Rotomatic tuners with Tulip Buttons, a Locktone ABR bridge, and Clear Top Hat knobs. If you love SGs but don't quite want to break the bank and get a Gibson, then this Epiphone SG Modern Figured is a gorgeous-looking, fast-playing, quality alternative.
