Epiphone SG310 SG Electric Guitar Ebony
Epiphone offer high quality copies of Gibson original guitar models therefore allowing the man on the street access to modestly priced high quality emulations of Gibson guitars. This is largely due to the fact that many years ago Gibson purchased Epiphone and under license allowed them to produce instruments for the middle tier market.

In the 1980’s the SG somewhat fell out of favour until it was re-vitalised by none other than Angus Young of the band AC/DC.
The 310 has a solid Alder wood body with a bolt-on Mahogany neck and the fret-board is Rosewood. The pick-ups are open coil hum-buckers and each one has its own tone and volume control and is managed via a 3 way switch.
