Epiphone Power Players SG Lava Red (short scale)
Available To PreOrder
The Epiphone Power Players SG™ is a 3/4+ version inspired by the legendary Gibson SG shape. It has a 22.73” scale length and a slightly smaller mahogany body making it light, easy to play, and an excellent choice for younger players. The Power Players SG is also a great travel guitar choice for more experienced players. It sounds better and stays in tune longer than other “student model” guitars due to its high-quality components and excellent build quality. The bolt-on mahogany neck has a sculpted heel for improved upper fret access, and it is powered by a pair of authentic Epiphone humbuckers for rich, full SG tone. The Power Players SG comes equipped with a gig bag, strap, picks, and a guitar cable.
Key Features
- Mahogany Body & Neck — When it comes to building affordable guitars, many brands will resort to using cheap woods that don't sound very good. Not Epiphone! Their Power Players Les Paul boasts a full-fat Mahogany construction, just like Gibson's USA models. It sounds rich, it sustains, and it's strong!
- 22.73" Scale Length — Slightly shorter than a standard 24.75" Les Paul scale length, which means that the frets are brought a little closer together and the string tension is lower. This scale is therefore perfect for smaller hands that are stretching and building finger strength! The unique short-scale design also makes the Power Players Les Paul a viable travel guitar choice for experienced players.
- SlimTaper 'D' Neck Shape with Sculpted Heel — A neck profile based on a popular Gibson shape, which offers brilliant playing comfort. The back of the neck has a sculpted heel where it joins the body too; providing generous upper-fret access.
- Epiphone 700T/650R Humbuckers — These authentic Epiphone pickups deliver the thick and powerful sounds that Les Paul guitars are known for, ideal for rock, punk and metal styles! Each pickup has its own dedicated volume/tone controls, and there's also a 3-way selector switch; letting you experiment with different timbres.
Included Accessories
- Gig Bag — Take the guitar safely to lessons without worrying about dings and scratches. Features a useful front zip pocket for storing accessories.
- Guitar Cable — Allows you to plug the guitar into an amplifier or tuner. Features a right-angled jack optimised for connecting to the instrument.
- 3 Medium Picks — You can never have too many plectrums! These medium-thickness picks are versatile enough for any style and good for beginners.
- Guitar Strap — Black nylon strap is durable and easily-adjustable; letting you set the perfect instrument height.
