Came across a 2009 epiphone Sg speacial when I open it up I was stunned just how well the body and neck were crafted professionally quality I'm Changing out the wiring..pots..switch..tuners and a pearly gate in the bridge position
My wife picked me up a 2009 Epiphone Sg Special I stripped it down for full upgrades I was very surprised to see what professional quality craftsmanship the body..Neck and fret work is incredible...I would expect this type of professional craftsmanship out of the Epiphone G400 Sg pro and the Epiphone Les Paul Standard plus top pro and up it goes to show that Epiphone craft some of the best guitars in the World at any price I can't wait to get the upgrades FINISHED
I don't care what anybody says - This guy is a much better guitar player than I am and the honest truth is this: watching him play in this video inspires me to work harder at becoming a better player.
Definitely looking into this guitar! I have a Les Paul JR and a Boss SD-1 Overdrive pedal, sounds just like that. Always been a fan of the SG (Iommi and Angus). It goes to show, the player is like 80-90% of the guitar. If I can play the music I want on a Les Paul Jr, I can totally use this SG and do some damage!
SH*t !!! I just bought this guitar for my 14 yo son who wanted to "learn" how to play. Along with a used Line 6, 75 watt 112 amp from my local Guitar Center. $330 out the door. Figured I'd get something he could keep after he learns... uh, yeah, I'd say he won't have to get rid of it anytime soon lol. Neither of us will notice the difference of a few thousand dollars for a very long time! Good job !!! You made the guitar sound MUCH more expensive. Hat off to you sir !!
Man....I MUST get me one of theses!! Talk about "bang for the buck"!! Great demo!! So nice to hear a demo by someone who can actually play...and show the different qualities of the guitar!! This guitar is on my "next 2 guitars to buy" list....hahahaha. Take care and thanks again. ~KJ
I have an older one, and they did not come with a pickguard but the new ones do, and the tone knob doubles as a killswitch. They aren't the best built from the manufacturer but the fixes are cheap and easy. (Nut not glued well, output jack comes loose easy, tuners are a little on the low end.) For a total beginner like myself, It's a decent guitar to start with, take apart, and teach oneself about the various parts and adjusting them to your liking.
He kept it on the neck pickup. This guitar sounds good through both my DSL15C and DSL5C. It sounds muddy through other amps I have. I have the ebony version. I like it better than that particular shiney red. Cool Epi bolt on for pretty cheap. The sticker does not come off the tone knob.
Wow, I've only just started playing, and I am ok picking with all my digits on my strumming hand, and that's with a decent speed, but I'm crappola with a pick, but this dudes picking speed is phenomenal.
I meant since you got your guitar, are you happy with it (English UK, maybe lost in translation). You answered my question, cheers. Mine arrives tomorrow. I've Got a 30 year old LP, and it needs attention more than I'm confident to do myself so I opted for the SG Special for something to play until I get the money together for the LP repairs (and have something to play in the meantime). I've got some decent machine heads to swap out as I've heard they're a bit on the cheap side -I'd expect that at the price. If it feels good to play I'll probably install some better pickups at some stage as I'm not a music snob and don't care what label is on my guitar, as long as it plays well and sounds good. Cheers for the reply. Everyone I've asked so far has said positive things about this model.
Well I did have to completely redo all of the sauntering it wasnt done to my likeness. And in the future I plan to change out the humbuckers and tuners but until I have issues they are doing me just fine, plan to actually play some of my local venues soon, the tone fits my style(Alternative/Grunge)
Caleb Spratley Here take a look www.guitarcenter.com/Epiphone-SG-Special-Electric-Guitar-101392124-i1149250.gc Its an Epiphone not a Gibson but its still a great guitar
I heard very good opinions about the guitar. As for the demo itself, the boy can play like a devil but I lack here something more rock 'n' roll, something in the middle, that's what the SG was made for.
what amplifier did you use chatreeo? I want a epiphone for christmas but I want to get an amp that is portable and light and may or may not have a battery built in it. if you could give me a recommendation that would be great!
Oh my God!.How badly I would like to play half as much as you can! And on a cheap "Epi Special"...... how can you play on a masterpiece? Anyway, what band are you playing in? It's a miracle I'm completely stoned! Great work! ++++++
Thinking about getting one of these so I can kind of create my own thing...start by putting in some EMG's (81-85) take off the scratch plate and do something about the inlays
Ive been playing for many years and have dozens of guitars,one of these came up cheap for sale,so I bought it,its a great guitar,the pickups really shred when gain'd right up,tuners go out a bit,but compared to the cheap guitars available when I started playing,this things great!
Do they even make this model with a kill switch anymore? Because mine doesn't have one. Other than that, if this video doesn't convince a person that a $200.00 (U.S.) guitar, especially the Epiphone SG Special is just as good as it's more expensive counterparts, nothing will. Great bit of playing on your part, as well. But seriously, if you want a great guitar, and are on a budget, (And who isn't these days?) I would seriously recommend looking into buying an Epiphone SG Special. I've had mine for over two years, and I still love it.
Comparing to Vintage VS6, could someone tell the difference in sound and quality ? cause there is an price difference, and it's not small difference, reviews for Vintage VS6 are high and very recommended for its price and the sound, cause it's identical to Gibson SG's, if not better than Gibson, cause I was recommended too.
I think my SG Special is broken cuz it sounds like shyte, compared to yours. I"m gonna send it back and pick up stamp collecting. Thanks for killing my will to play even a scale. :( Seriously, thanks for the video. I enjoyed it.
Tu estilo es más el metal y se te RE nota :) me hubiese gustado que hubieses tocado algo de jazz o blues pero aun asi tocas muy bien la precisión y la velocidad es impresionante

Changing out the wiring..pots..switch..tuners and a pearly gate in the bridge position
My oh my... Surprised that the guitar did not start burning ...
Talented Musician ! So many styles you have mastered.... Much respect to you.
Thank you so much for demonstrating rhythm much more than lead, I really appreciate that every demo does this
Are you on crack or being sarcastic?

Did you sell your soul to the devil? That's probably the most gnarly I've heard someone play.
Sounds like you’ve been to the crossroads 👏💀
haha
You are amazing with the guitar
Thank you
homie you need to chill...
Very impressive playing. Thanks for an excellent demo.

I was looking to buy Chatreo's hands at Musicians Friend.

You can have mine. They're shit.
Just picked up one of these guitars. I love it. It makes my Smoke on the Water sound amazing! ;)

A good guitarist Can make any guitar sound good
thank you
This may be one of the best guitar players i have ever seen
fuck i can barely improvise with the pentatonic scale
Right, Why isn't he playing the Super Bowl or some other high profile place. lol
at 2:15 or 2:16 he mutes or stops a string that was the most amazing sound I have heard or seen with his fingers. Crazy but good job :D
You are the best guitar player of Indonesia bro, keep on!

+PcGamingWeekly How did you get on with it?

Thank God for YT cos I can't learn anymore jamming with CDs and MP3s. A demo like this is like a tutorial and a Godsend. I'm athiest btw.
Daaaaamn, i just stared at the video with dropped jaw. Lots of respect!
Couldn't have asked for a better demo!
thank you
i bought this guitar and aside from the neck being a little wider than i would like, its amazing how well it plays and sounds for the money
This is Lesson 1 of a 10 part series. Stay tuned next week for Lesson 2
You're brilliant! You handled and demoed that axe perfectly
I was thinking "is it a guitar demo or his demo?"
THIS IS THE BEST GUITAR IN THE WORLD !!!!!

what amplifier did you use chatreeo? I want a epiphone for christmas but I want to get an amp that is portable and light and may or may not have a battery built in it. if you could give me a recommendation that would be great!
This guitar really does sound great! Well done!
dont you love the dual humbuckers?
Oh my God!.How badly I would like to play half as much as you can! And on a cheap "Epi Special"...... how can you play on a masterpiece? Anyway, what band are you playing in? It's a miracle I'm completely stoned! Great work! ++++++

Amazing skills bro! I stopped by to check out an sg video and just got my face melted off.subd
Excellent demo and playing!
can you please name the music begins at 1:06? really looking forward to know
Amigo me podrías decir que amplificador usas?? Y qué distorsión ?? Gracias
Dude is a freaking beast
กีตาร์จะถูกจะแพงถ้าระดับปรมาจารย์เล่นแล้วยังไงเสียงก็ออกมาไพเราะน่าฟัง.
Ive been playing for many years and have dozens of guitars,one of these came up cheap for sale,so I bought it,its a great guitar,the pickups really shred when gain'd right up,tuners go out a bit,but compared to the cheap guitars available when I started playing,this things great!
Awesome! Congratulations from Brazil
You're so cool i just recommend your youtube channel to my friends and share this link your skills are definitely worth to watch
O_O"
MASTER #Respect
Sweet standard shredding. Cool. What amp are you using here?
I wonder if they sell those at sam ash.
this is the prove that you can play awesome and go on highest level of playing even with a cheap guitar I have the same by the way
My face has been melted
I'm just wondering ... is there any note on this guitar you did not play at least two times in this solo ??? :-)
They had this half off at my guitar center, so I decided to look for reviews.... Yeah, I'm sold.
mind. blown.
Do they even make this model with a kill switch anymore? Because mine doesn't have one. Other than that, if this video doesn't convince a person that a $200.00 (U.S.) guitar, especially the Epiphone SG Special is just as good as it's more expensive counterparts, nothing will. Great bit of playing on your part, as well. But seriously, if you want a great guitar, and are on a budget, (And who isn't these days?) I would seriously recommend looking into buying an Epiphone SG Special. I've had mine for over two years, and I still love it.
Mine doesn't sound like that 🎸
Maybe it's broken!!!!!!!
Was it made on a friday
Did you have to anything extra or special to get the pickguard??
Thank you Mr. Vai for that demo
SWEET! I Think you have a fuzz pedal.
estas usando algun pedal o pedalera?
I am getting one of those next week as an early christmas present :D CANT WAIT
Comparing to Vintage VS6, could someone tell the difference in sound and quality ? cause there is an price difference, and it's not small difference, reviews for Vintage VS6 are high and very recommended for its price and the sound, cause it's identical to Gibson SG's, if not better than Gibson, cause I was recommended too.
I'd like to know as well. It's a pretty neat tone.
I can only hope by watching this video I have absorbed just a fraction of your powers
What is that button that you press on your guitar near the end of your video? I really want to install one to my Les Paul.
Wow Wow Wow what a man on guitar ,super Demo amazed
mad skills, you should have more likes on this video
Thank you

the help you say...great playing...that Epi SG...is also great...I have one....oh you did speed the vidio up..
Does the guitar come with the skills?
You would be a badass lead guitarist.
best of em all. Is. Chatreeo's distortion. Section.
(mouth drops when starts shredding) this guy is better at shredding than van halen! Why isn't he famous
