    Hello, I am the Uncle Bryan that is getting this guitar, the reason that my nephew got it for me was that lavender was my wife's favorite color. Diane my wife of over 40 years and Chris's Aunt all of his life, passed away suddenly, almost 3 years ago now. when Chris saw this, he knew he had to get it for me, and I feel so honored that he loved his Aunt Diane so much...

    I bought one of these in the same color sight unseen the moment I saw it online at NAMM Show review. Always wanted an SG type guitar and this one forced me to pull the trigger. For the price I don't think you can beat it. And by the way I am a 50 year old man, but I play funk music so the color suits just fine. And by the way Mr. I Trogly, kind of purple and kind of pink is called Magenta! Many argue whether this is actually a color or not because it does not naturally appear on the color spectrum which is what fascinates me about the color. It is literally, off the chart! Looks fantastic, plays great and sounds awesome. As Trogly said there is nothing to do but just choose your color...

It's a player and a keeper for less than $450. Do yourself a favor and go play one before you spend more.

    It’s too bad that Gibson won’t loosen up a bit and start offering these wider ranges of colors and finishes. It’s a bummer to see guitars with great specs done in tired colors and finishes. The options for finishes is often what drives people to boutique brands.

    I got the modern wasn’t planning on it, but the asymmetric neck was more comfortable in my hand than other guitars in the price range despite the glossy finish. I swapped out clear speed knobs for black, looks stunning, plays great, stays in tune and the out of phase sound is delicious. It is a little on the heavy side compared to the other SG models in stock but I can live with it.

    @Molotov_Milkshake Год назад

    Looking for some advice: I got the SG Muse around 9 months ago. However, recently I'm finding that the neck pickup only works if the phase inversion pot is pulled out. The neck pickup doesn't work at all when the phase inversion is pushed in.
    This has just started happening recently and I honestly cannot figure what is causing it.
    A few months back I put replaced the pickup covers with some gold ones, but as far as I'm aware I didn't break any wires/connections anywhere. But this issue with the neck pickup has only started recently. Basically means if I'm in the middle position, I need to have the phase inversion active, otherwise only the bridge pickup is working!
    I'm at a total loss with it!

    I got the black one recently on sale for £249 and I'm very impressed with it. Would have preferred the pink or almond finish, but they cost like £150 more or so. I'm very pleasantly suprised and impressed with the black one though. The jet black metallic finish looks really nice when the light catches it, especially yellow lighting. It's quite understated on first glance, but is actually a beautiful guitar. Plays and sounds great too!

    Great video. I am in the market for an Epiphone SG but getting model overload. You have the Muse line, Standard, Classic and Custom. I might be missing some. I would love to figure out how they standup against each other. Although I am NOT a fan of the output jack in the front. As far as I know, only the Muse has it on the side. This will likely drive my selection unless there is something about the Standard that makes it the winner.

That's really my only main complaint with the guitar, and Grover tuners would have been nice too.

    I got a jet black metallic 3 months ago, absolutely loving it although the tuners aren't that good.

    Austin! How did you get the board to look so good? What oil/conditioner did you use and how much TLC did you give it? Looks fantastic dude!

    I have the wanderlust green SG and it's beautiful! in person ( bought at a pawn shop in excellent condition for $200 so setup and strings were needed ) and I love it ( also have a custom built SG ). I need that pink one. I have a Hello Kitty sticker I want to put on it. ( I am an SG fanboy LOL ) It's awesome!!!. I like the jack position honestly. I always use D'D or EB strings ( depending on the bridge ) I always change to locking tuners other than my Custom SG ( has vintage greens ). This Muse is a great! guitar and the price point is perfect IMO.

    Taking your advice on this Austin. I'll check out the moderns.

    I like the switching options. Not a fan of the color or the rings and control cover color. But I agree about the modern being best choice despite lack of color options.

    I have the white one. The neck, tuning, intonation...all perfect. BUT. The pickups blow as do the electronics. It’s PCB wiring, so a pick up swap needs to be rewired. I did the full job plus Whole Lotta Humbuckers (Seymour Duncan). It sounds and plays amazing. I got it in January and rarely play any of my other guitars and I play every day. I love mine.

    All 3 Johnson guitars are for sale on Reverb! Pokey, Gumby and Betty Boop. Reverb News has an article with Earl Slick explaining those three guitars, and cracking up his bandmate by flashing Gumby's eye lights at him.

    I played this guitar at sam ash about a month ago. It was really cool but the neck dive was too much so I decided to buy a Micheal Kelly 63 instead.

    $429. Wowzerz Trogly, that is a great color and at that price one could have enough for a real luthier set-up.

    The Modern has 24 frets, Muse 22. That gets rid of the weird tenon cover and extends your range all in one swell foop.
    I've loved SG's since they came out but oddly just couldn't look past the tenon cover, it always bugged me. So when Gibson came out with a 24 fret SG, perfect solution! I grabbed it.

    I love Batwing on the smaller heel.. Pink is a bonus... Wondering if the switch etc would be in the way of a pearly Batwing..
    Gold hardware and Zebra Coils.
    And the Nanomag in the tenon area.
    The indian laurel would tempt me to pull the frets CA coat and refinish polished then put frets in again..

    Is there a way to replace just the last pot with one P/P-pot, do a little bit of soldering and add a serial position for both PUs?

    I don’t like the extra piece between the neck pickup and the neck. If they didn’t screw but leave in the box, one could choice to install that or not

    Hi Trogly. Do you know something about the Epiphone 2020 Les Paul 59 outfit? I saw it in some videos but there's no official info about it.

  • @PickleWeasel91
    @PickleWeasel91 4 года назад

    Is the white stuff behind the pick up a problem?? My 2020 Epiphone Les Paul Standards 60’s the bridge pick up has that white stuff behind it.

    The locking grover tuners them selves are almost worth the $120 upgrade. I bought my first set of locking keys earlier this year and threw them on a Floyd equipped jackson Soloist. Now i'll probably put locking keys on every future guitar I own from here on out.

    • @EPSGplayer
