The SC-450 Scroll was the midpoint in the Scroll series of guitars Epiphone made in the late '70s. The SC-350 was the entry level model, while the SC-550 was top of the line. The SC-450 featured a maple body, ebony or rosewood fretboard, and came with either covered Epiphone humbuckers or open coil Gibson humbuckers (indicated by a G suffix in the model code). The SC-450, like other guitars in the Scroll line, came with either a stop bar/Tune-O-Matic bridge system, or a Leo Quann wraparound bridge. The SC-450 can be distinguished from the SC-350 by neck construction; the 350 has a bolt on neck, while the 450 has a set neck.
