Yes very light, great intonation, action is perfect stays in tune and I love playing it. This is my opinion and I have been at this making music for over 20 years professionally! SUPER LIGHT

The Epiphone SG Special guitar is indeed lightweight. I also have a Squier Fat Strat that I really like, but with the Squier you really notice the weight. Compared to the Squier the Epi SG feels like a feather. I really like that. The only downside is the SG is a bit top heavy and the neck tends to dip when used with a strap. I moved the top strap button to the end of the top horn and that counters the tipping a great deal.

No... But it is not heavy either. It's kind of relative to what is considered light or heavy.

For a beginner yes, I believe it is for it has the correct weight and after learning a few chords it plays very well. I just like it for just being able to pick it up and play. When you improve graduate to the next.

It is, but not a whole lot heavier. I think the rosewood is denser than fibrox.I have bought both versions of this knife and truth be told the rosewood one definetly feels more balanced

Yes. It is. We've had this for 6 months now for my 6 year old son who takes lessons. So far this guitar has been a great beginner guitar. It rarely slips out of tune after practice making the next practice with the teacher get started with minimal tuning. We are happy with this choice.

I would trust it in that situation. It is light weight but very solid. My uke speed from Hawaii in a cardboard box and it is much stronger than that!

Yes. The guitar we received has low action and light strings. Easy on the fingers. Very happy with it.

I have no idea about the "shipping weight", but the guitar weighs about as much a regular guitar, almost exactly four pounds.

Not sure the guitar itself isn't very heavy my five year old can hold it up just couldn't get his arm all the way around it

Yes it has a very low action. I've played plenty of guitars, to include a full sized Martin, and the big baby has the lowest action and is the easiest to play

yes, its alot lighter than a real les paul and a bit smaller, very easy to hold in lap without it sliding off.

It's actually rather lightweight. I love mine and use it at least every day because it's so handy.

No. It is however the top guitar recommend by our music teacher after seeing ours and finding how well it sounds and never needs tuning.

It is only slightly heavier than an acoustic. Just remember that it is electric, and it is cheap! For what it is I got plenty of use out of mine. You can turn up amp effects and rock the house or like me, I practice in hotel rooms without disturbing vermin.
