Bought it from L&M rental department so the price was reasonable. Always loved SGs, having owned one years ago and thought I'd 'give it a try'. The neck is a bit chunky compared to my old one but is nice to play and old ones with narrower necks used to have neck problems, (mine sure did, maybe because of the length compared to the body? but that's why I sold it) I'm pretty sure this one will survive. I swapped out the pickups for real Gibson humbuckers and it really came to life, this guitar plays great and sounds really sweet!!! Really happy to have it.

Like good bourbon, this guitar is smooth and feels just right. Since I got it, I can't put it down...play it for hours. Make sure you double check the setup. It comes with the purchase from L&M, but when after playing, the intonation was slightly off...not enough to be irritating, but enough that when next time I change strings, I'll get it corrected.

Unlike the guy who posted what a terrible guitar this is, I checked it out here in Hamilton because of his review I bought this guitar. I wanted to see how bad a Gibson guitar could be. I found the the vintage 490 and 491 pick ups were excellent and the sound was clear( I used a Fender Princeton amp in the store). Even though this is a stripped down version of an SG, it has great qualities. All the bells and whistles worked and the soft case that comes the guitar is awesome. I say to you "Mr Poor Quality", you are totally wrong about this guitar. For the price and the fact that this plays and sounds like a good Gibson SG, I would recommend this guitar to everyone!

Incredible value for the price! Thick chunky neck (c shape?). Gibson deluxe tuners are worry free Pickups are very articulate, especially the bridge. You can't get more honest and straight forward than an sg. So comfortable. Easy playing.

Spongey maple neck, low quality tuners, hardware that seems cheap, wobbly pots, horrible muddy sounding pick ups. This guitar is absolute junk. Stay as far away from this guitar as you possibly can.

Performance Warranty Banner

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty

A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.

Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.

How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
  • Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
  • Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
  • No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
  • Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
  • Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
  • Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
  • Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
  • Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
  • Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
 

Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.

Purchasing additional years of coverage

Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.

If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:

  • NEW products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
  • USED products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
  • GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
  • BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
