This arrived today. Although I am a beginner of only 3 months I originally bought a LP style (mainly on looks) which is great but I found it to be a bit cumbersome .Bit tricky buying online especially as a lefty but have no option. Many youtube videos later I decided on this.

thanks–not experienced enough to know if it needs setting up–just played through the chords and sounds fine.
Oh wow!
Now that is…

I’m trying to remember which model that is from looking at it. I researched SGs a few weeks ago and bought the Epiphone Modern - the one with the coil splits and phase split.
Mine needed some truss rod adjustment (flattening) and fret polishing. The fret ends could use a little more deburring. I dropped the action a little but some would argue it didn’t need it.
I thought the original strings felt stiff. I dropped them one size (to 9-46) last week and like it much better. That isn’t much change, so maybe more about string brand than size.
That’s a gorgeous guitar, happy NGD! I had an Epi SG Pro and even with that low end model it was quite a nice guitar to play. Weight will be much much different than an LP. Have fun playing!

Congratulations! That’s a great guitar, so enjoy it.
I have one awesome Standard 60’s in Cherry Red. New Epiphones are really great.

It always needs a setup!
SG is my favourite guitar, I love mine and yours is a beauty. Happy NGD!
Rest assured shades are not required, If its good enough for Ms Fish its good enough for you Tom. Happy NGD.
