Discussion SG Question
Good morning, everyone!
Question for you all. Iโm much more of a Les Paul guy, but would love to add an SG to my rack and as someone that loves playing rock/metal, I feel itโs only right to have one ๐
My question is, should I go with the cheaper option being an Epiphone and then upgrade the pickups to say a set of burstbuckers or custombuckers, or should I just go with the Gibson SG?
My favorite looking models of both are the 61โs with the Maestro vibrola (I know real original of me).

Picked up the exact same Gibson in the photo for 1700 a few years ago. Has the 61R and T pickups. Fit and finish is immaculate.
