Overall:
i bought this guitar after reading the reviews thinking it would be a good starter guitar but i was sadly disapointed...the gig bag is horrible and offers no protection to your guitar i didnt learn much from the dvd and the tuner is off...its kool that you get the picks and strings but there so inexpensive you dont really need them...the amp was the best thing i got i havent had a problem with it yet...the tone and volume knobs dont offer much control and they keep coming loose...the strings kept breaking so i had to buy new ones...the pickups arent bad i’ve rewired them to a strat body that i made and havent had any problems with them...the neck is offset and doesnt hold the low e string right...the frets buzz and the input kept breaking...i wouldnt recomend this guitar to a beginer because its too much work...but if you wanted it for parts its perfect!

Overall:
I am simply overwhelmed. Look, I work at a Marfak Auto Lubrication Center 12 miles south of Pawnee, Oklahoma, so take it from me. This package is simply "over the top" when it comes to features, sound, and fantastic appearance. I am thinking I might order one just cause I thing it would be a really nice setup to have. I highly recommend this product. The guitar looks kinda like a Gibson or whatever they call those old guitars which I hear are worth a whole lot of money.

Feature:
This had lots of accessories.the picks are good for fast-moving solos,they give you extra strings which you relly dont need,but good to have,the strap is pretty good,the cable is good,but not very long.The amp is pretty cool too.i have played loud heavy metal licks,with the volume all the way up,and it has withstood it.
Quality:
the prouduct is made very well.nothing has gone wrong with it so far.It’s still running very well.
Value:
this is a very good value,for a great guitar.
Desirability:
this guitar caught my eye from the moment i saw it.it kind of looks like a gibson sg.its awsome.
Sound:
The sound is great.You can get tons of diffrent sounds and ditortions just by messing around with the knobs and volume.you can play like a blues sort of thing or a metal riff with it.
Support:
didnt really need them.
Overall:
i think this will last me for a long time.if lost or stolen i would by another.this is a great product.I f you’re going to start playing the electric guitar,this is a great one to start on.

Feature:
the accersories were allright, nothing special though.
Quality:
i orriginally bought this guitar as a back up, and i found myself using it more than my fender!
Value:
it’s worth way more!!!
Sound:
well, i’m not one to write alot, but i must say that i own a Fender Stratocaster, and this guitar, and they sound allmost identical to eachother after i put Fender Super bullets on it, i love this guitar just as much as i do my fender!
Support:
i havent had to deal with them, but i’m sure that if i had to, it would be as pleasent as could be.
Overall:
i don’t expect to have to replace it for at least another 5 years, and i’ve had it for 2 allready

Feature:
The amplifier is average and not worth having either. The amplifier has an overdrive button which does not give you much overdrive. This amplifier is a disappointment.
Quality:
What good is a guitar if the strings make a horrible buzzing noise every time you play it. Very disappointing, What quality control?
Value:
I’ll never buy another Silvertone product again.
Desirability:
The look of this guitar is deceiving. It looks great, but ultimately you’ll soon discover it sounds horrible.
Sound:
This guitar is not worth buying. If you do end up buying the guitar, you will hear the strings make a buzzing noise when you play the guitar. Every chord you play sounds terrible, the strings touch the frets and it creates this horrible buzzing noise. This guitar is a big disappointment.

Feature:
the things the package came with were low quality. the tuner was garbage. the 1/4" cable wasn’t that great either. i didn’t like the amp. you weren’t able to eq it as well as i wanted to. you only have a bass and a tremble knob. the other problem was that one of the screw that hold the strap fell out of the guitar.
Quality:
the input bolt fell out about a week after i got it. i had to take off the back cover and screw the bolt back on. i thought it was rediculous that i had to do that. also the screw that held the strap fell out but i couldn’t find a number for silvertone to get it fixed.
Value:
you get what you pay for. i would expect better quality. i would pay no more than $100 for this guitar.
Desirability:
it’s nice but it is nothing like the gibson it is trying to be.
Sound:
out of the box the sound wasn’t that great with the amp the package provides. i bought a line 6 pod and that helped with the sound. not bad for someone starting out but someone who has a sharp ear will get annoyed.
Ease of Use:
it is hard to get a good sound. you really need to purshase a lot of upgrades to get good sound.
Support:
there is no support. hopefully you know how to figure things out or your in trouble. i hate silvertone.
Overall:
i would save some more money and buy an epiphone or an ibanez. it was more of a headache than anything else.

Quality:

Desirability:

Feature:
All that it comes with is perfect, well except the gig bag, it will make your guitar go out of tune, so youre better off getting a case. But other then that the amp is perfect for a practice amp, picks are pretty good they are about a .5 or so, the tuner works better then most that I have delt with. The cable is good but you can always go down to the music store and buy a better one.
Quality:
Very great quality I have had these baby for over a year already sounds great, no scratches or anything, beautiful paint job. I recomend getting a stand becuase its just such a beautiful guitar
Value:
Such a steal, a guitar these high grade usally cost about 400 bucks at a music store.
Desirability:
These guitar has always stud by my side and I never wanted another guitar. I like the shape reminds me of a pretty women, The only thing better then the shape is the sound.
Sound:
Very great sound, My girlfriend owns a B.C. Rich warlock and let me tell you something this baby has a richer sound then the warlock. All you just need to thrash is a distorter and a wah effect and this guitar gives off the most power metal scream ever. You can get the best sound by using Gibson extra light strings.
Support:
I cant say I havent had a problem with it.
Overall:
Overall, these is a very relieble guitar. I would deffenatly recomend guiting a silvertone.

Feature:
Had lots of stuff but the picks sucked, strap was ok, bag is crappy just keeps dust off it and the amp was ok for a first amp... the overdrive was horrible
Quality:
the pick up nut gets loose very often but then again so did my 500 les paul... its not wood you open it up and looks really cheap on the inside
Value:
VERY AWESOME FOR 200 BUX!
Desirability:
Guitars will get u laid... i hope
Sound:
The sound is good for a first guitar... But then again i had nothing to compare it to so i was in heavan
Overall:
The price really brings it up for a 9

Feature:
the accessories are okay even though the amp and tuner suck.
Quality:
overall this is a good package for begginers but nothing more than that.
Value:
you could probably get a better guitar for a little more money but this is good for the price.
Desirability:
this guitar doesnt exactly look like an sg because the back is a little fat. it still lookes pretty good though.
Sound:
the sound is pretty good with other amps. the amp that comes with it sounds like crap. the 2 humbuckers have a great distortion(with other amps) and a good clean. i would reccommend this for most styles of rock. you should buy a behringer amp to make it sound the best.
Support:
the company will email you when the package is shipped but that is about it.
Overall:
you should keep this for around a year (thats how long ive had it)

Feature:
the amp is ok, not to great but ok. the strap is worth keeping, iv used it for a year so far and its been good. through teh picks away also. o and the bable sux ass, i got a nice hosa. also the bag sux ass, i got a coffin case for it. the dvd really helps, i teach my friends and well the dvd helps alot
Quality:
i havent needed to replace anything mager, i only replaced the pickup to improve the live sound for gigs
Value:
for 200 bucks, you should get each color....hehe
Desirability:
all the chicks love it, and it blends with my pin stipe suit, my jumpsuit, camo,...everything any questions on the thing then email me at zerofan_109@hotmail.com
Sound:
it sounds great for any first guitar. but i sugest you get some elixer stringsd right after you buy the setup, the stock strings suck ass. also i eventualy put a gibson 58 humbucker pickup on the bridge end for bad ass sound. and beguiner will like it
Support:
silvertone sux when you call
Overall:
its great.

Feature:
Good strap, good tuner, good DVD, GREAT AMP.
Quality:
IT will last a long time. Except the lifting strap on the amp snapped after about 7 monthes. That could be my fault though.
Value:
Great deal with a great guitar and great amp!
Desirability:
When I saw it it was the only guitar I wanted because it looks exeactly like a gibson SG. Its about 1000 bucks cheaper too.
Sound:
It sounds great. Just like a real Gibson SG guitar.
Overall:
I dont think I will ever sell it. I love this gutar pack and you will too.

Feature:
the tuner works good, the dvd is good for the most part but i learned how to put in strings from it and it told me wrong so i screwed up a string. it said put in cut tune when u should put in tune cut. everything on the guitar seems high quality and it looks really good
Quality:
it looks really good the product was made well the paint is really glossy but a couple bolts were loose and i just tightened them up and they are fine now. i dont think it would break but ive only owned it a week so i dont know much.
Value:
its one of the cheapest guitars out there(pricewise) while its a guitar worth about twice its price. maybe thats why the price says 50% off even though thats how much it is no matter where you get it.
Desirability:
IT LOOKS GREAT. everything is great about the sex appeal. other then it being the same model as a SG its great.
Sound:
the sound responds extremely good to my playing and overall its very good but ive never heard any other guitars in a single room alone so im not too sure.
Support:
i put in the wrong billing address(typo) and they called me up and it was an easy fix other then that i havent dealt with them.
Overall:
I think this is a great beginners guitar, the only thing bad about it its the amp which isnt all that good and the strings which need replacing. the second set is slightly better. If i ever get good at guitar ill get a real SG but until then this will do.

Feature:
The guitar looks awsome and it looke like an SG which is cool.
Quality:
it was ok but it broke 2 times like the first week
Value:
yes i would say so
Desirability:
i like the wine red but when i ordered there was no liquid black i wanted that one
Sound:
It needs a better amp but the pick upps are good it needs to be more money added to the deal and put a better amp to it trust me they will buy it more but anyways the guitar is great and the tuner and picks are cool.
Support:
one lady had no idea what she was talking about
Overall:
i would play this one for a while until i save and get enough money to get a gibson or sonething deffently an SG.

its got all the basics... but thats all its got.
Quality:
bad wiring and a weak neck joint other than that its alright
Value:
worth the cash... lets be honest there are 3,000 dollar guitars out there
Desirability:
it looks really nice.
Sound:
the guitar has good clean sounds ok distortion pretty good vintage sound on treble pickup. the amp has bad distortion but makes up for it in clean sounds.

Feature:
I love the fact that it came with an amplifier, a bag, a tuner, and a DVD. They all fit together-so you can play right out of the box.
Quality:
Everything was nice when it got to me. No blemishes or anything. Had bubble wrap even...lol
Value:
Very good for all the features-but if you look around a little more-even if someone elses price is a penny less-then they give you ten bucks off though. *SHhhh!*
Desirability:
This looks very "sexy". The little white edging makes it look "Da Bomb" lol...I could not wait for it to get to my house, the second I bought it. Couldnt wait to get it.
Sound:
This Guitar is great-exept the Distortion is sort of sketchy. Not too bad-but you hear it when you try to play chords and solos...that sort of thing. The clean setting is very nice though-I love that. Also gets VERY loud! You cant just use regular headphones though-you need a special plug in-like a buck.
Support:
It got to me very quick-and i didnt have to deal with anyone.
Overall:
Great Guitar overall-great features-could use a little work on the amp- Buy this guitar! dont have second thoughts!

Feature:
the features werent the greatest but i like the tuner. it was a little confuseing but after a few minutes it was really easy to use. the strap is alright i dont really use it alot tho.u mite wanna get a new cable because mine just stopped workin after like 3 months.
Quality:
there was one small problem i had after i had the guitar for about 3 1/2 months. the strings started to hit the 1st fret causing a buzzing sound. i just brought it to the local guitar shop and they fixxed it. i didnt like the cable how it just stopped working so u should buy a new 1 wen u buy the guitar.
Value:
this guitar package is a very good deal. the only thing that wasnt good was the cable. thats wut made it a 9 not a 10
Desirability:
i think this guitar looks awesome. it look just like a gibson sg and its sweet.
Sound:

Feature:
The features make me cry when I try to think about all of them and how they couldn’t have sold this for two hundred unless the workers were making something well short of peanuts. But that’s globalization we cannot turn back or else we will have a comunist president or something.
Value:
You mean a lot to me, dear reader, or I would not be typing this.
Desirability:
In general, people do not find me desirable, but that’s okay I SHRED ONLY FOR MYSELF AND THOSE WHO CAN UNDERSTAND MY SHREDDED MUSICAL VISION QUEST.
Sound:
I cannot put down this guitar I sleep with it I take one of the ten (TEN!!!!???) picks that you get with this package out of my pocket, strap on this REALISTIC gibson SG and I fly like a complete large flock of morning doves straight into the cosmic heart of pure tone heaven and I never come back ever ever.

Never. In a million years. Listen to me. Don’t go there. Come on.
