Members dap99 Posted January 16, 2010 Members Share Posted January 16, 2010 I like that one b/c it has the skinnier neck (right?) I had an SG standard and it was nice, but I'm so used to the thin neck on my Ibanez AS80 that I couldn't gel w/ the SG. Also, I put Gibby Classic 57s in the Ibanez and it sounded great so the SG seemed like overpriced hype. I sold it and have no regrets. My friend rocks the '61 reissue and he's really happy w/ it.

Members mrweems Posted January 16, 2010 Author Members Share Posted January 16, 2010 Why is it not in your hands? Well banks are closed for one. Second. I thought it was an sg standard. And 900 is overpriced imo. So. Ill check the books. I might be owning an sg soon fellas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members L_Z_nut Posted January 16, 2010 Members Share Posted January 16, 2010 My main gripe with most Gibson SG's is that sharp block like neck heel. If memory serves me right, the 61 ri has a much more comfortable/shaved down heel.... like the Epis. I'd go for it!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MrNixon Posted January 16, 2010 Members Share Posted January 16, 2010 always make sure you're okay with how the guitar balances, especially with SGs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members mrweems Posted January 16, 2010 Author Members Share Posted January 16, 2010 idk there is something about the 61 that is slightly erection inducing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members strtdv Posted January 16, 2010 Members Share Posted January 16, 2010 if it's a 61 RI I'd definitely get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JorisBlack Posted January 16, 2010 Members Share Posted January 16, 2010 Has '57 Classic pickups. List price on those nowadays is $ 3299. Do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RoboPimp Posted January 16, 2010 Members Share Posted January 16, 2010 essentially this. vs this.. IMO you want the second one, the good neck joint one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members strtdv Posted January 16, 2010 Members Share Posted January 16, 2010 IMO you want the second one, the good neck joint one. IIRC the '61 actually has a weaker neck joint and is more likely to break, but yeah, it's still the one you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members FlyGuy10 Posted January 16, 2010 Members Share Posted January 16, 2010 IIRC the '61 actually has a weaker neck joint and is more likely to break, but yeah, it's still the one you want. yah but it's more accessible! $900? You'd be crazy not to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members L_Z_nut Posted January 16, 2010 Members Share Posted January 16, 2010 The neck joint is still very solid with the more comfortable heel. This... Over this... any day of the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members EL KABONG Posted January 16, 2010 Members Share Posted January 16, 2010 Yes jump on that SG. 61 ri's are supposed to have a really fast neck. thats the only guitar I am gassing for at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faldoe Posted January 16, 2010 Members Share Posted January 16, 2010 I had a 61' Reissue and a like it a lot. I loved the slimmer neck on it. I ended up selling it when I got my Jazzmaster. Great guitar though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mrweems Posted January 16, 2010 Author Members Share Posted January 16, 2010 Gonna call my friend up today. See if i can play it. Gonna take the princeton and maybe a dirt pedal. If it feels good, with the 60's neck I imagine it will, and if there is nothing wrong with it. I'm buying it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
