📚Description: Epiphone has come out with a new signature model for artist YUNGBLUD in the form of an SG Junior with a Classic White finish. One of Gibson/Epiphone's biggest complaints from the public outside of price is they don't do many signature guitars for up-and-coming artists. The problem is... when they do, the models tend to get met with more backlast from purists, than love and it takes time for people to appreciate them.

I went into this guitar with a blank slate not knowing anything about the artist and just wanted to appreciate the guitar for what it is! A cool white Epi SG Junior that wasn't currently available otherwise!

  • I think this is an excellent value. People like to complain. "Oh they don't give young new artists signatures" but also "oh, there are so many other artists that deserve a signature guitar". C'mon, this is awesome and a good deal
  • @rocktorrocks
    I gave Yungblud a listen and was not disappointed. Gives me some hope in the future of rock. I’m a sucker for white Gibsons and really dig p90s. I kind of miss my Les Paul Junior which I sold. This is tempting, especially with that hard case. Way more appealing than any of the $1300 Epiphones. This is reasonably priced, looks good and sounds good.
  • @DanielBobke
    Been to that store on Denmark Street on my last trip to London...that was a great visit.
  • I have no clue who Yungblud is but I think that guitar is pretty cool. I would put a stacked P-90 in it and a push/pull knob so you have the option of having a humbucker as well as the P-90.
  • @TheDizzack
    Absolutely knocked it out of the park for an affordable, simple, great sounding guitar. Appreciate the non-bolstering of the artist with a nice case. God willing fretwork is ok.
  • This seems exactly like the Billie Joe Armstrong Les Paul Jr Epiphone that came with a hard case. Just a different body shape and the Ephiphone logo is mother of pearl inlay. It's actually one of my favorite gutiars.
  • @TheJeffcurran
    I bought one yesterday. I should have it on Monday. $599 with that awesome case? It was a no brainer for me. It's my third SG Jr. I couldn't say no. It sounds like an SG Jr should. I can't wait to get it in my hands.
  • I still have the Pelham blue SG Special and the 63 Reissue with the Lyre tremolo that I bought from you Trogley.
  • @benlogan430
    Trogly has been practicing! Sounding good my friend!
  • @mattd1142
    I have many Les Paul juniors It’s my favourite guitar. I’ve never actually played an SG Junior.
  • @littlebigcat
    You’ve undersold his father. Who got prosecuted to making and selling fake vintage Gibsons and Marshall amplifiers. Do not give him any sort of advertisement.
  • I have literally never heard of yungblud in my life and I feel like that's probably for the best
  • This is a perfect opportunity to bring out a non-signature SG Junior in a regular finish, gig bag and priced a bit below the SG Special. I class this one as covering the development costs of things like that pickguard. A regular release would make for a great beginner guitar somewhere between the Melody Maker and Les Paul Junior
  • Jake E Lee uses a gibson version of this guitar in the shot in the dark video… just saw it and thought y’all may wanna know this…😂😂😂
  • I say we petition Gibson and get a Trogly signature. What would it be though ?
  • Here in Canada these are going for $869 (CDN) at Long and McQuade Music. Listed as having CTS pots, Epiphone p90 dogear pickup, Graphtech nut.
  • @papasmamas1
    The fretboard looks amazing, and cool model.
  • What about the lower cut on the pick guard at the lower horn of the guitar? The shot of the Brian Ray SG had the pick guard tight against the lower cutaway. 🤔
  • Sitting beside my epi Slash goldtop and SG modern while watching. Love epiphone. Fantastic looking and sounding guitar.
