Using your Epiphone SG Standard Electric Guitar is easy. First, tune it up using the 18:1 ratio Epiphone Deluxe Tuners. Plug it into an amplifier using the 1/4' output jack and start strumming. You can adjust the sound using the 2 - volume and 2 - tone controls and the 3 - way pickup selector. When not in use, keep it in a guitar case to protect it from dust and damage. Wipe the strings with a soft cloth after each use to prevent rust. Check the truss rod regularly to maintain the neck's curvature. If you need to change the strings, use the recommended .10, .13, .17, .26, .36, .46 gauge strings. And remember, always handle your guitar gently to keep it in top shape.
