SG Special VE CH : Good beginner guitar

Bought this guitar as my first electric guitar after playing acoustic for a while. I am very impressed with it. I've only played a few electric guitars before, but this definitely feels more expensive than it is. The edges of the frets are smooth so nothing to catch my fingers on.

The controls are simple with just a volume and tone knob. I would say this is beneficial for a beginner.

The tone of the guitar is excellent. A friend said "it's definitely an SG." I agree with him, it's a very authentic tone.

I changed the strings without even trying the ones the guitar came with, more out of personal preference than anything else.

Overall I'm very satisfied with my purchase. It's a whole lot of guitar for the price.
