The SG of the Future

The SG Modern Figured from Epiphone's Inspired by Gibson Collection has the classic SG profile made from Mahogany and maple cap with AAA Figured Maple Veneer. Powered by a pair of Epiphone's ProBucker™ humbuckers with coil-splitting, phase switching, and treble bleed circuit for a multitude of tones. It also features an Ebony fingerboard, asymmetrical Slim Taper neck profile with contoured heel, and world-class Grover® Locking Rotomatic™ 18:1 ratio tuners, and a Graph Tech NuBone™ nut. Hardshell or EpiLite™ case sold separately.

ProBucker™ humbucker Pickups

The classic "P.A.F" sound is closer than you think

Epiphone's ProBucker™ humbucker has quietly become one of the most talked about pickups in the industry. It has fooled experts, vintage purists, and even luthiers who have worked with the best vintage examples from the late 50s and early 60s. Epiphone ProBucker™ humbuckers are the real deal--made with 18% Nickel Silver unit bases and covers, the same alloy used by Gibson at the Kalamazoo factory when the humbucker was first invented. The use of Nickel Silver reduces the occurrence of eddy currents due to low conductivity and provides a more transparent and crisp output. The size and shape of the bobbins also has a great impact on tonal response. And the bobbins used on ProBucker™ pickups duplicate the size and shape of the gold standard in the industry, Gibson humbuckers. Epiphone ProBucker™ pickups also feature sand cast Alnico II magnets, high quality 4 conductor lead wire, and are vacuum wax potted to eliminate microphonics.
