Epiphone Inspired by Gibson SG Custom Ebony

Part of the Inspired by Gibson Collection, the Epiphone SG Custom has been refreshed and is better than ever. The legendary SG™ has long been a favorite of musicians across genres. Like the Custom version of the Les Paul, which Les himself envisioned as a fancier, “tuxedo” version of his legendary solidbody model, the SG Custom also features the premium appointments that can be found on all Custom models.

The Epiphone SG Custom has a contoured, double-cutaway mahogany body that delivers exceptional access to all 22 frets. The glued-in mahogany neck adds to the model’s renowned sustain. The neck has a 1960 SlimTaper C profile that isn’t quite as thin as some SlimTaper neck profiles but is still fast and comfortable to play. The neck is capped with a bound ebony fretboard equipped with 22 medium jumbo frets and is adorned with Custom pearloid block inlays. The 12” fretboard radius is equally comfortable and well suited for first-position chording and for string bends further up the neck without the risk of your bends fretting out. The Epiphone SG Custom is outfitted with gold hardware throughout, right down to the gold inserts on the black Top Hat control knobs. The bound headstock has Grover® Mini Rotomatic® tuning machines and is adorned with the Epiphone logo and Custom Split Diamond inlay, both in mother of pearl. The Grover tuners, Graph Tech™ nut, and the fully adjustable Epiphone LockTone™ Tune-O-Matic™ bridge and Stop Bar tailpiece all work together to keep the tuning stability and intonation on point.

The Epiphone SG Custom is equipped with a pair of Epiphone ProBucker™ Custom humbucking pickups that deliver all of the vintage-approved SG tones you expect. Each pickup is wired to its own individual volume and tone control, along with a three-way toggle pickup selector switch, which lets you use either pickup alone or combine them in whatever ratio suits your mood and the musical moment.

The Epiphone SG Custom is a refined and elegant model in formal attire that is well-suited for any occasion. Its stunning looks will turn heads, and its rich sound will impress players and fans alike. It comes complete with a premium gig bag to help keep it safe whether you’re traveling to your next open mic night jam session, wedding reception, or club gig.
