3 stars for Epiphone, 5 stars plus for L&M in Orleans, Ont. 2022 model, purchased late 2022. Out of the box, the pickup covers were badly stained/oxidized, and some pickup wires going into the electronics cavity were damaged due to improper body routing, pinching wires against the volume pots. Some frets needed a little bit of levelling and re-polishing. The initial setup was horrible with a very high action, no intonation setting whatsoever, and no neck relief (almost some back bow actually). This is where Long&McQuade Orleans really shines. Guitar tech extraordinaire James Fox took care of all that and more with the after purchase warranty setup, including new pickups from Epiphone. I've had James work on several of my guitars since that location opened, and his work has always been impeccable and right on the money. I hope he stays forever. Now that SG Custom looks and plays like a dream. Gorgeous guitar! The slim taper neck is actually thinner than the slim taper on my Epi Les Paul. Very slick and fast, yet not too soft to bend. Lightweight at 6.8 lbs, comfortable to wear for hours. The Alnico Classic Pro pickups are slightly hotter and brighter than the ProBuckers 2/3 on my Epi Les Paul, and they fit that guitar just great. No need to replace them. Deluxe vintage tuners look great and feel smooth, good stability. This is my fourth Epiphone, and I find overall they make great guitars for the money, no doubt about that. I consider that one to be an exception in terms of QC, but the point is: if you buy any guitar at L&M Orleans, you need not worry, they will make it right for you.

I bought this guitar a few months ago as I was looking for the Tony Iommi SG signature Epiphone model which was sold out. This guitar is really amazing and I am so happy I picked this up. The fret board is smooth and the neck feels great. The pickups are brilliant and the sound and tone control gives this guitar an amazing sound. All in all I love it and would definitely recommend this to someone who is moving from a beginner guitar but don't have the budget for high end Gibsons or Epiphone.

Performance Warranty Banner

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty

A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.

Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.

How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
  • Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
  • Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
  • No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
  • Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
  • Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
  • Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
  • Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
  • Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
  • Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
 

Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.

Purchasing additional years of coverage

Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.

If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:

  • NEW products: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
  • USED products: 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. 4% for each additional year.
  • GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
  • BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
