About this product
Overview & specifications
Epiphone SG Tribute Ebony – Classic SG Power
The Epiphone SG Tribute Ebony delivers everything guitarists love about the iconic SG design – sharp double-cutaway styling, snarling humbucker tone and fast, comfortable playability – in a streamlined, no-nonsense package. With its solid mahogany body and sleek Ebony finish, this SG Tribute looks right at home on any stage, from local Gold Coast venues to festival backlines across Australia.
At the heart of this guitar is a classic SG recipe: a lightweight mahogany body paired with a mahogany 60s SlimTaper rounded C neck. The result is a responsive, resonant instrument that feels immediately familiar under the hands. The neck carves a sweet spot between vintage chunk and modern speed, making long rehearsals, studio sessions and pub gigs comfortable for Aussie players of all levels.
The SG Tribute Ebony features a smooth laurel fingerboard with 22 frets and a 628.65 mm (24.75") scale length, giving you that classic Gibson-style feel, bend-friendly tension and singing sustain. Simple dot inlays keep the look clean and functional, letting the bold silhouette and deep black colour of the finish do the talking.
Ceramic Humbuckers with Bite
Loaded with an Epiphone 650R ceramic humbucker in the neck and an Epiphone 700T ceramic humbucker in the bridge, the SG Tribute is ready to cover everything from crunchy classic rock and blues, through punk and hard rock, to heavier modern tones. The ceramic magnets deliver a tighter low end, plenty of output and a bright, articulate top that cuts through a full band mix.
A straightforward 1 Volume / 1 Tone control layout keeps things simple and fast – perfect if you like to ride the volume knob for dynamic control or roll the tone back for warmer, vintage-flavoured sounds. This is a working guitarist’s SG: plug in, dial in and get straight to the riff.
Rock-Solid Hardware for the Stage
The SG Tribute Ebony is equipped with a LockTone Tune-O-Matic bridge and LockTone Stop Bar tailpiece, giving you great sustain, reliable intonation and a solid feel under the right hand. Premium die-cast tuners with a 15:1 ratio make tuning adjustments smooth and precise, while the nickel hardware adds a touch of classic SG style.
Perfect for Gold Coast and Australian Musicians
Whether you’re grabbing your first “proper” electric guitar or adding a road-ready SG to your collection, the Epiphone SG Tribute Ebony is an excellent choice for Australian players. It’s ideal for rock, indie, punk, metal, worship and covers bands, as well as home practice and recording. At Guitar World Gold Coast, we love how this model captures the character of a classic SG while keeping the feel, features and price-point friendly for real-world musicians across QLD and the rest of Australia.
If you’re chasing a versatile, comfortable and great-sounding SG-style electric guitar with a timeless black finish, the Epiphone SG Tribute Ebony deserves a serious look.
