Full Description

Classic SG style with a modern edge

The Epiphone SG Traditional Pro delivers the unmistakable look and feel of a '60s SG with upgraded versatility for today’s guitarist. Its sleek double-cutaway body provides effortless access to all 22 frets, making high-speed solos and intricate licks easier to reach. The deep contours and lightweight mahogany construction ensure a comfortable playing experience, making it ideal for both stage and studio use. Finished in a striking metallic gold, this SG stands out visually while staying true to its vintage roots with a Kalamazoo-style headstock and black speed knobs.

Alnico Classic PRO humbuckers with coil-splitting

Powering the SG Traditional Pro is a set of Alnico Classic PRO humbuckers, designed to deliver everything from smooth, vintage warmth to aggressive rock tones. These pickups use Alnico V magnets for higher output, tighter bass, and enhanced clarity, making them perfect for blues, rock, and beyond. The push/pull volume controls let you split the coils, unlocking sparkling single-coil tones, while phase switching adds another layer of sonic variety. From crisp cleans to dynamic crunch and full-throttle roar, this SG handles a wide range of tones with ease.

SlimTaper neck for effortless playability

Epiphone has crafted the SG Traditional Pro with a SlimTaper neck profile, ensuring a fast, smooth feel that caters to both rhythm and lead players. The mahogany neck is paired with an Indian laurel fretboard, offering a warm, resonant tone with plenty of sustain. Rolled fretboard edges enhance comfort, making long playing sessions easier on your hands. Whether you're bending notes, shredding solos, or locking into a groove, this neck makes every movement feel natural and fluid.

Reliable hardware for tuning stability and sustain

Staying in tune and maintaining rich sustain is effortless with the SG Traditional Pro’s premium hardware. The LockTone Tune-O-Matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece ensure rock-solid tuning stability while enhancing sustain and resonance. High-ratio tuners provide precise adjustments, so you can dial in your tuning with confidence. Designed to handle the demands of live performance and recording, this SG remains steady, delivering the iconic sustain and punch expected from an SG.
