As discussed in this month’s exclusive interview with Yungblud, his new Epiphone SG Junior signature is based on the 1964 Gibson original he’s taken with him across the globe, and was created to give younger players access to classic looks and sounds. It’s the kind of double-cut that makes a statement before you’ve even had the chance to strum a chord thanks to its single Dogear P-90 Pro bridge pickup, cream oval tuners and wraparound bridge. The only other signature SG currently in production by Epiphone is the Tony Iommi model, which retails for nearly twice as much, so this latest addition to the range is definitely well priced for beginners working with smaller budgets.
