Nice playing and tone! ☺️👌

As a 60 yr old... I feel ya brother.... nothing transports one back in time , like music can... fully watched..... nicely done.... let’s keep playing til our hands give out....

Try lowering your pickups instead of putting them to high to get more volume from the strings vibration and don't forget to turn up your amp! Also get some Gibson pump polish and keep cleaning the neck with it and eventually it won't stick anymore 😊

I got a new Gibson SG standard after trying it next to the 61 version... I did not like that skinny neck... The full pick guard standard sounded so much fatter with a roaring mid range.. The wider but slim neck is perfect... The 61 sounded thinner and muddy for my liking... I have never tried the model that you have, but guess it is similar to the 61 in feel... The Epiphones are nice too but I just can't get on with the look and feel of the Indian Laurel fretboards... I have it on a Casino and it's unpleasant... Rosewood, Ebony and maple for me any day... Having said that, I do have a Gibson custom inspired high end epiphone les paul custom custom which has the ebony fretboard and gibson pickups and electrics.. Its great.

Thanks, man, this vid sealed a deal waiting for me. Getting this beauty in a week! Best!

Just one correction: it has the Edge tremolo and not the Edge Zero. Cheers

As a mostly mediocre guitarist, and a dad... I can only say that I approve of this message. 😁

I'm glad I found your video sir. My local shop has one of these and I don't know which part of the equation it is, neck thru body, bridge with brass string thru block, Ernie Ball nut. I don't know. But it was the most resonant guitar in the store. I'm not even a 7 string guy but was tremendously impressed by it's playability. I've been thinking about it ever since. Very well made.

It's a stunning guitar. Lundgrens come from Sweden not Switzerland. Sweden, back in the days was one of the lands where the vikings originated, so that's cool :) You don't need to apologize to anyone m8 - if for example having 5 guitars is what makes you happy then you should keep all 5 :) keep chuggin!

That fretboard spacing is why my tele is a jazzcaster.

18 minutes and no tone demo?

Hi 😊. If you find a guitar you like and bond with , don't despair if it has a high gloss neck. You can easily render that. If 🎭 you mask off the head and body carefully and with some 0 or 00 steel wool rub off the sheen gently and Bob's your uncle. Don't be afraid to make an instrument your own. Production guitars are just generic concepts, they are just a rough tool to be modified, even the most expensive boutique guitars fall short of being good 🎵🎶 musical instruments.Have Fun . Best Regards. John.

I have this guitar and the neck rocks on it! I love playing this Inverness Green monster.

To mediocre guitar, I certainly believe you.I don't have much knowledge in the finish dept.I like it, or I dont.I always play it clean through a small amp,or NO SALE. There are people who are too far away from a music store, so they buy sight only.How in the Frick, do you do that?For a two hour drive to save hundreds,do the math.Then AFTER .the purchase they try it OK. by me,besides who cares,it's not what I do that matters.Thanks for the answer, I would really like to know if it's you, or the guitar.No reason for me to lie, l am over 70, never had that problem.Have a shiny red SG by Gibson, 2020. I am no expert, but my friend has a Gibson, 2006 , no problem, maybe they put a chemical in somewhere ? Let me know, keep playing, no matter what! GOOD LUCK, BROTHER!d

I paid 1800, you paid 3 grand! No wonder your disappointed, way too much, don't like the finish on yours either.Epiphone is ok, call China tell them.I have tried Epiphone, but prefer Gibson,since 1967, SG. They are made by Gibson, they are quality. It's like guns, buy a gun you like,regardless of opinions.

We get it, you like the CHINESE guitar, cool, I have a Epiphone Riviera, like a 335 Gibson. I think back then, groups like Paul Revere and the Raiders ,Wailers,many used the Riviera. Thought it was made in states.I played most rock festivals, if l didn't sweat, I would not be human, I don't understand, everyone sweats under Klieg lights.I certainly did following Ike and Tina Turner at Satsop river festival 1973. Why didn't you play any of the unsteady guitars and the problem one either? JUST WONDERING! Do you perform, or play in your room.Either is great but your disappointment may be you never had a Gibson, too much expectation.I. bought a SG standard four years ago, I love the finish! Easy ,.light love rosewood, have a Les Paul custom prefer rosewood to ebony. My SG looks nothing like yours. Wish you would have played at least a little!

I will be buying a purple one soon

Love the music.

Wow, .I’ve heard and read about people preferring a satin finish to the back of the neck of their electric guitars. I’ve also learned of players feeling more comfy with Epiphone models than Gibson ones. This could be the first time I’ve been conscious of a player saying their hands stuck to the back of the neck of any guitar. That is especially surprising after having myself owned several Epiphone guitars, all with gloss finish at the back of the neck and my only Gibson model, a Les Paul in gold, having a gloss finish on the body and a satin finish on the back of the neck - and suffered no neck drag on any of them. All that being said, I still otherwise relate to why your Gibson SG disappointed you and you chose to stick with the Epiphone. I have toyed with the idea through most of the 29 years that I have been a guitar player (having begun learning to play in 1995) with the idea of getting an SG model. Every time I become tempted by one, I back off. At the end of 2021, I instead purchase a different Epiphone model, a Flying V from a 2009 line that was exclusive to the Canadian retailer Long and McQuade, the Negative line. It feels kind of savory being an American musician located in New York City whose current Epiphone guitar model originated on the Canadian market.

You have the ignorant bias that alot of guitarists have. I had it as well. Once you realize that they are human beings making guitars EVERY day. Then you realize you get good at it. China manufactures can make anything you ask for. You want cheap? Here is your chibson. You want high quality? Here is your Eastman. I have an Epi 61 IBG that I love. Also have a westcreek racer that was 200 bux new. Its an amazing guitar.

I have that same guitar. I love the sound but hate the neck. Too wide and flat.

if it has stainless steel fret that would absolutely be perfection

Huge fan of epiphone, (casino lover here..) love good quality affordable gear... fan of epiphone, bugera, behringer etc..

Enjoyed the video... please disregard those negative comments and just do what ya do. I enjoy guitar related conversation, if people don’t “have time” they probably should click off and not watch... new sub here... I’ll see ya ‘round

No way I found my opposite 🤯

🎸🎶✨❤️🤘🏼

I also purchased the EPIPHONE WORN Cherry SG Classic. The tone and playability and visual effects and appeal is top notch . It also has made me want to get another SG as well.

I have two of these. An amber one like you have there and a wine/purple stained twin. Bought the wine one new in Brisbane and years later, saw the amber one on Reverb. It was in Lithuania...Bought it and shipped it out here to Australia. I dunno what your 24V mod is.

Man you talked but no clean samples

All due respects dude. It's 2024. Anyone who's paying attention knows knows the mid-upper range Squiers and Epi's these days are pro-level guitars in their own right, with great looks, build quality, playability, and tone. How bout you play it a little for us?

I think one of your specs was wrong dude...... It should be an Alder body, NOT basswood like you said unless early ones were basswood, Im not sure! I own the same guitar and its Alder. There lovely guitars.

story time. great. I just wanted the review. I'm out.

Im selling my 7 string prestige Ibanez and 25Th Anniversary RG to get this guitar. This is the only guitar i need same mindset as you. I own the JS140 and so impressed with it im sold on this model hands down.

I just saw a picture of this guitar on Instagram and came to KZbin to find videos on it. I never heard of this guitar before and it’s cool. I wish that Schecter continued producing these.

This is what u call guitar hero 2.7 🔥

Have exactly the same guitar,,, love it.....

does it neck dive?

Hi man I’m a major Joe satriani fan also thought you might like this performance of Joe satriani you have already seen it but just incase you haven’t thought you might like this live performance of Joe satriani playing surfing with the alien and he is playing the guitar that you own all the best Martin kzbin.info/www/bejne/bImmmWmkpryWaJY&si=VxAYOGpZhYqHJz4k

@1:55 JS2410 is Alder body, not basswood. (not being argumentative just some people won't buy basswood guitars, they dent easy and wont hold screws like alder/mahogany.) The js2410 is Alder on ibanez specs.

Ignoring those few shit comments that aren't true, your playing is fantastic and is full of soul. Please keep up the great content as you do!

I just found your video on my recommended, I totally agree on your opinion about this guitar! A lot of people seem to hate it but I can't stop being obsessed with it 🔥 I am sorry to see your comment section you truly don't deserve it! I am glad that you can still play the guitar even after such a bad bike accident! I had someone getting overly angry about my Etherial in my comment section too I was even told my guitar was gonna break in pieces and I would have regretted buying it 😆 Reality is I never got a problem with my guitar nor regretted buying it AT ALL 🔥. Everyone should use their money as they like the most and you made a great investment , that guitar is dope! 🤘I hope you will be able to keep on playing and vibing, music is truly a blessing !

Saving up for this exact one. Had different KM Korean models throughout the years, and they were all insane. Really eager to try those Lundgrens. This is basically the closest thing you can get to exotic territory (Mayones, Skervesen, etc) from a mass production factory. That Lagoon finish is glowing from the screen. lol Cheers.

A little rough but I’m working on building this into a song

amazing guitar.

Half of the price of Gibson guitars is for the name just like Harley's when you buy a motorcycle, you get what you pay for....

Calling the 81 and 85 cheap? They’re tried and true for a reason. Sucks about the fretboard, I have one in black and the turquoise one. Both are great.

@Thenon-mediocreguitarist Great guitar my friend! I never played one of these. One day, when I hit up G.C., I'll make sure to sit down and play one of these. Plug one of these guitars into my amp of choice, Line 6 Spider V60 MKII, same amp that I own, or the new Line 6 Catalyst CX 60, or Catalyst CX 100. How well do the pickups hold up on this guitar? Also, if I ever plug this guitar into a Line 6 Spider V60 MKII amp in Guitar Center, how well will the pickups sound, if I go to the insane setting on the amp? Super stoked to try this guitar out at G.C. I wonder how well this guitar will handle a set of Dunlop Heavy Core strings on it. Perhaps, the Jim Root Signature 6 string set, that allows you to play in Drop "A". And play all those heavy Slipknot riffs.

I dislike the way the knobs on many Talmans look but this model seems to be the best one aesthetic wise. I like how it has Fender vibes without just being a copy.

Do you still have it

Are you from USA or Canada And do you still have that green epiphone sg guitar
