I own 8 guitars, all over twice the price than this but I have to say that I spent 5 months without playing my others. This does everything sound wise that I wanted from a guitar. Finish is beautiful, yes it is coated and not a flame top but you can only see that up close. Quality of binding and fretboard feel isn't up the the Gibson quality bit it is over £2000 less than a Gibson so I'll let it off the hook. I'd strongly recommend this guitar for anyone! I'll not be parting with it!

Looks great, great value, plays amazingly. I have 2, one from 1995 and one from 2013. 1995 model has the ebony neck and it looks great. I've also replaced the pickups and I've been told it sounds as good as a Les Paul 3x the price.
Don't worry about the 'studio' name ruining your image as 95% of people don't have a clue!
Love the guitar, love the looks, I just don't like the width of the jumbo frets. Sounds great as well. Has an American feel to it but at a lower price.
Love this guitar. Have a bad back and it is so light, have had no problems since. The 57 pickups are amazing and make it a lot more versatile than the 490's that I've tried in SGs in the past. Mine came in vintage sunburst and looks great. I can't quite put into words how happy I am with this guitar.
Bought this guitar on a whim after falling in love with the colour (Charcoal Frost Metallic with Maple Fretboard) and trying it out in my local music shop. Tones and playability are amazing and I always take it to gigs as a backup or as my main guitar. The clean tones available from the guitar are immense and the volume and tone controls alter the sound nicely as you'd expect.
I always thought I was a Les Paul guy but I couldn't be without this guitar (2008 model)
Went into the store with a big budget but came out with anything but a budget guitar. I tried the G45 range as well as a J45 and I just preferred this guitar. I was unaware of the pricing as well as I asked the store to take the tags off before trying. Mine has a beautiful wall it back and the playability is second to non. I’d recommend getting one of these if you can still find them as they’ve been discontinued. I use it DI’d and the pickup is great too. The G series doesn’t have the Baggs pickup which is included on this and higher end Gibson guitar.
Amplifiers 3
This is a great gigging amp. The clean channel is very loud and the difference in volume between viblrolux and the bassman channel is a lot. It can be controlled with a volume or eq pedal though.
Loads of differnet gain settings available and the reverb is brilliant as you'd expect.
Cons: volume difference between channels is annoying, reverb would be better if it could be controlled with the foot switch. Hum on clean channel is a bit annoying but I use a Noise Gate to control it.
The amp is ok. Good enough sound and the app is very good. Downloading tunes is easy and it’s really good to see other people’s perspective of famous tones using the tone cloud. It’d be nice to have another update from Line 6 as it’s been years and the Bluetooth range for the app to all my devices is so short you have to be virtually next to the amp for it to connect.

Love this! £21 and just as good on the pedal board as the more expensive delays in my opinion. I tried a few but only use this for 4 or 5 songs so it was a no brainer. I'd really recommend these smaller pedals. Just can't go wrong for the price!
Very basic sounding but delivers a great tone. Can't go wrong for the price. My friend recommended Donner to me and they're great for live performances. It really helps get a great tone with a single coil and breaks up the sound nicely, as well as giving clarity to each string.
I love this pedal. Took a while to get used to the size of it and how to position your foot so you'd get the full sweep. The 3 settings are a great feature however you have to take the bottom off it in order to access the switch. A stupid design fault in my opinion. Still, I'd not leave for a gig without it!
Used as my boost pedal for a while. Lost out to the BD-2 on my pedal board. Reliable and easy to use with a wide range of gain available. Was a little heavy for my liking though.
Fantastic all round overdrive pedal. I use this with the gain barely on but level quite high so I get a nice break up from the amp. I'd actually consider getting another though in the chain as it is a very smooth overdrive once pushed a little harder. Ideal for the music I play which is from all genres.
Easy to use and a great practice tool. Have used it live once but better off at home. Drum machine patches are a bit rubbish but fine for practice.
I've had this pedal for a while now and if I'm playing smaller venues I don't need any of my pedals with me as this has everything covered. I love the way each pedal can be controlled through manual dials rather than having to go into a cpu as you do on most now. I haven't even used the patch settings as I use it on manual. I also used this pedal when a fuse in my amp blew and the pre amp settings were fine. Can't buy better for the money.

Very versatile. Works best with valves rather than my Katana but you can control it with volume very well! Best distortion pedal I’ve ever used

Never leave home without it. The 1 time I forgot it the neck on my Les Paul broke. Sturdy and reliable. Folds up easily as well.
Same build quality ad a Pedal Train at half the price. The only thing is I don't give the gig bag more than 6 months. I'll move it to a flight case.
Use this with my dreadnought J-15 and they just sound better than the tortes I use. Much more versatility from a pick. Which, if you told me before I tried them I’d have laughed!

This unit has worked really well. Yes it’s large but I knew that when I bought it. Pedal performance has been a lot more consistent since buying it. I use all 8 power outputs at 9v. Bought this as it was the only 8 output one in the shop but more than happy with it as got a great deal! No regrets!
