If your first guitar’s starting to feel a bit basic, the Epiphone SG Tribute Plus is ready to rock your world. It’s packed with premium features but won’t break the bank — perfect for players stepping up their game. And with its iconic look and flexible electronics, even seasoned shredders will find plenty to grin about.

An SG with serious swagger

This SG might be affordable, but it sure doesn’t look it. With its beautiful Flame Maple veneer top, bound fingerboard and classy pearloid trapezoid inlays, it’s dressed to impress.

Access all 22 frets with ease

Forget the “dusty end” of the fingerboard. This SG makes high-fret access a breeze, thanks to its tapered heel that lets you solo all the way up without the strain. The frets are medium jumbos too, giving you loads of control for expressive bends.

Bold tone for big riffs

Equipped with Epiphone’s 650R and 700T ceramic humbuckers, the SG Tribute Plus has a rich, aggressive sound with lots of clarity. Whether you’re keeping it clean or pushing the gain, they make sure every note cuts through. And with dedicated volume and tone controls for each pickup, you get total command over your tone.

Key Features

  • Mahogany body & neck: Deliver warm lows, thick mids and smooth highs for that signature Gibson sound.
  • 60s SlimTaper Rounded C neck profile: A thin, fast-playing shape that won’t be slowing down your practice sessions.
  • Epiphone 650R & 700T humbuckers: Punchy and bright for crisp cleans, big overdriven riffs and searing leads.
  • LockTone bridge & tailpiece: Anchored securely to the body for boosted sustain and resonance. They make action and intonation adjustments a breeze too.

Electric Guitars

Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibration into an electrical signal, allowing the sound to be shaped through amplifiers and effects. Key things to understand include body shape, pickup type, neck profile, scale length and bridge design, as these all affect tone, feel and sustain. They are used across almost every modern genre, from clean and expressive to high-gain and aggressive styles, making them one of the most versatile instruments available.

SG

The Gibson SG (Solid Guitar) is a rock icon with attitude. Introduced in the early 1960s, it took the Les Paul’s power and gave it a sharper, lighter, double-cut design for faster access to higher frets. Its twin humbuckers deliver raw, biting tone and endless sustain — perfect for everything from blues to heavy rock. Played by legends like Angus Young and Tony Iommi, the SG proves that simplicity, style, and sheer power never go out of fashion.

Sunburst

Sunburst refers to a classic guitar finish that fades from a darker edge to a lighter centre, showcasing the natural beauty of the wood beneath. It’s one of the most recognisable and timeless looks in guitar design, adding depth, warmth, and vintage character to any instrument. Available in styles like two-tone, three-tone, and cherry sunburst, each variation brings its own personality and flair. Whether on an acoustic or electric guitar, a sunburst finish captures that perfect blend of tradition and style, making every instrument look as good as it sounds.
