Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? The SG is extremely well made, it's a solid body guitar, it will last forever! very dependable Reliability How has it stood up over time? n/a but i have confidence it will hold up. Overall Your general opinion of this product. awesome guitar, very well made, iconic guitar, sounds amazing, plays great, can't be beat Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? the frets feel like butter, the neck is wide, you can get to all the frets easy, the body is obviously light compared to a les paul, the headstock has a tendancy to fall downward but i think it's due to the location of the strap pins. (there's no other way to do it so get used to it) the controls are easy to get to, no problems there Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? the 57 classics are amazing! very hot and thick, just the way i like em Finish How did the stain or paint job look? I have the satin black, i'm perfectly fine with the finish on the satin SG's, if you don't like it, get one that's painted. Action How was the action out of the box? out of the box is ok, I encourage everyone to set your new quitar up how you like it.

How was the action out of the box? Lowered the action to suit me, no problems here. Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? Quality is what you would expect from Gibson. Reliability How has it stood up over time? Ive had it for a month but I expect it will withstand the test of time. Overall Your general opinion of this product. Great guitar. Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? I play SG's pretty much exclusively so everything feels right and is where I want it to be. Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? This is where this gutar really shines. It's big, thick, airy and punchy with plenty of grit on tap. Pick lightly and she purrs like a kitten, dig in hard and she screams like a wild cat but it still has enough clarity to hear every note in a chord. Finish How did the stain or paint job look? Ok. Here is my one and only complaint about this guitar. The description says satin finish which it is but Gibson didnt bother to fill the pores in the wood. It looks like someone pulled it off the production line, grabbed a rattle can and went to town. WTH! Ive got an Epiphone SG with a satin finish and it only cost $400! Come on Gibson for $1500 you can fill the pores. If it wasnt for the tone of the guitar I'd have sent it back!
