Part of the Inspired by Gibson range, the Epiphone SG Standard is back and better than ever. This is the legendary SG we all know and love — the same iconic design that’s fuelled the sounds of everyone from Sister Rosetta Tharpe and Eric Clapton to George Harrison, Angus Young, Tony Iommi, Robbie Krieger… the list goes on! If there’s a hall of fame for guitars, the SG owns a penthouse suite.
Classic Mahogany construction, effortless playability
The SG Standard keeps things classic with a contoured, double‑cutaway Mahogany body, giving you effortless access to all 22 frets — perfect for fiery solos or those high-register riffs. A glued‑in Mahogany neck means heaps of sustain, and the fast, comfortable SlimTaper “C” profile makes this thing feel properly slick. Up top, you get a bound Rosewood fingerboard with medium‑jumbo frets and pearloid trapezoid inlays — vintage vibes, modern playability.
Hardware you can rely on
Add rock-solid Grover Rotomatic tuners, a Graph Tech nut and Epiphone’s LockTone Tune‑O‑Matic bridge and Stop Bar tailpiece, and you’ve got tuning stability you can actually rely on.
ProBucker power: authentic SG tone
Of course, it wouldn’t be an SG without the sound — and Epiphone absolutely nails it with a pair of ProBucker humbuckers. A ProBucker 2 in the neck and a slightly hotter ProBucker 3 at the bridge give you all the vintage-inspired growl, bite and warmth you could want. Each pickup has its own volume and tone control, plus a three-way toggle, so you can dial in everything from smooth bluesy neck tones to full-on, face-melting bridge crunch.
Ready for the stage
The Epiphone SG Standard isn’t just a looker — it’s built to perform and guaranteed to turn heads. And yes, it even comes with a premium gig bag, so you’re sorted when it’s time to hit the road!Key Features
SlimTaper “C” neck profile: This neck carve feels instantly familiar and fast under the fingers, letting you rip through chords and lead runs without a second thought. It’s comfy for long sessions too, giving you that effortless “just one more riff” playability we all chase!
22 medium jumbo frets: These frets make bending an absolute breeze and give you loads of confidence when navigating the upper register. Whether you’re playing power chords or flying into lead lines, they offer a smooth, modern playing feel.
ProBucker 2 & 3 pickups: This dynamic duo dishes out rich, vintage‑voiced clarity with all the punch and warmth you’d expect from classic humbuckers. From sweet cleans to roaring leads, they deliver a wide tonal palette that’s ready for any genre you throw at it.
LockTone hardware: The LockTone bridge and tailpiece keep everything rock‑solid, boosting sustain and preventing accidental slips when you’re digging in. It’s a no‑nonsense setup built for stability, reliability and big on‑stage energy.
Included premium gig bag: Lightweight, durable and ready for the road, this gig bag keeps your SG safe between rehearsals, gigs and late‑night jams. It’s the ideal grab‑and‑go companion for players who are always on the move.

Key things to understand include body shape, pickup type, neck profile, scale length and bridge design, as these all affect tone, feel and sustain.
