Epiphone SG Special with wraparound bridge review repaired restored

 Here are a series of videos which I uploaded about my Epiphone SG Special. It was given to me by my good friend Weng who bought it from New York and brought it home in the Philippines. Then last December, when I went home, he messaged me that he's giving me his guitar. 

It's a beautiful guitar. At first, it needed a bit of TLC. Like strings needed changing, guitar needed cleaning and then the jack input is crackly. You'll see all of this on the videos.

But the most important thing is that it's now restored. And, I love it. The stock pickups really sounded good. The overall finish of the guitar is amazing. You'll be the judge guys and watch the videos.




Here's the video where I took this Epiphone SG Special for repair. It was for the fretbuzz, the jack input and a bit of setup like the neck truss rod, and the action. 


I did a bit of looping, so if you're interested and wanted to hear this Epiphone SG Special in action, here's the video:


And last but not the least, I did a comparison video between Epiphone LP Special II and this Epiphone SG Special.





Tried using Bose S1 Pro as my main amp for my guitar


 Finally, I did it! I used my Bose S1 Pro as my main amp for my guitar during gig. The only thing I regretted was that I should've used it as my monitor as well. But instead I put the Bose S1 Pro near the front of the stage because we didnt have a full PA setup that evening. But I learned my lesson, I shouldve put it next to me either at the back or in front. 

I learned as well that I could have used the line out of my Bose S1 Pro to send to the mixing desk or PA for the front of the house speakers. But, that's going to be in my future gigs. 

So here's the video so you can hear how it sounds.
