A good introduction to the SG
As a budget player, I couldn't get a Gibson right away so I have started using this one. The general sound is very close to traditional SG's however, when comparing to Gibson SG's, I think the pickups are sounding a bit muddier. But if you want to use this guitar as a modding platform, this shouldn't be a problem. The neck is wide in this one, which made me comfortable but if you like thin necks, this one might not be the right choice for you. I also found this one comfortable for touring with since it was relatively cheaper ghahahaha. Other than that, if you are a budget player who wants to get introduced to SGs but don't want to pay a fortune - I'd say give it a go until you get the real deal.

It is a great revision of a traditional instrument for newcomers.
I have been using this Jaguar for over a year. I mostly play punk/hardcore so the p90's was the main appeal for me. One of the main advantages for me (might be a disadvantage for traditional players) how simple this guitar is build. It doesn't have the traditional jaguar setup; but instead it has one 3-way switch and two knobs. As simple as that. It is great for players like me who wants a simple guitar with p90 tones. Great for playing punk rock stuff. The only downside for me is the weird strat Jack input. It's placement feels a bit weird. Other than that, no complaints!

Fantastic
After years of using Epi's, I have finally started to use an SG Tribute. The neck is fantastic and it is really comfortable to play. The sound is the classic SG sound. It has 490r/t pickups which I am fond of. Also it is great for me that the neck is maple, so it makes me kinda relieved for the risk of neck breaks. Also, I did not really have a neck dive problem like traditional SGs. Been using this tribute for months for my gigs and it is an absolute workhorse. Apart from adding pickup covers, I don't think I will make much updates.
