Good Gibson SG Copies?

[VonLichtenstein]

Hmmmm... have any of you seen a copy of a gibson SG?? (my dream guitar 8) )

I have only seen 1 so far which is the Craftsman one..
(what brand?) Yes, Craftsman... I don't think many have heard of it unless u went to city music...

Hmmm.... Sg doesnt seem to be too popular...

If there aren't any gd copies, saving for a telecaster would be best i guess..

samick has some copies of SG too.
LTD oso makes SG shaped guitars

epiphone ones should be good since they are part of gibson

i second the Epiphone option, if you intend to own something very close to the Gibson brand name, it has to be Epi... with that said, i'd urge you to try the Epi Tony Iommi signature, listen to how good the default humbuckers are.

ESP makes an sg copy with some minor differences. Its called a viper i think. Haven't tried it though.

[subversion]

i bought it because it represents my ideals of a Gibson, something a little unconventional but still impressive.

 

[MrE]

Hey sub, any hint as to how much a faded double cut LP might cost? I really dig the worn yellow one

 

[subversion]

i have no idea, the only faded ones i saw were: SG/ Flying V...
