Members thom Posted September 28, 2012 Members Share Posted September 28, 2012 On sale for 800Euro, tomorrow only. Not sure if I'll get through the day without making the 30min drive to the store. Probably have to order it sight unseen, don't think they have it in stock. Don't really need it, and I'll always be a tele/jazzmaster guy no matter what...Plus, I'll get in trouble with the misses again:cop: Either point me to good clips/demos/records that prove that a P90 equiped SG is a huge asset to my otherwhise tele/jazzmaster/jaguar dominated collection... Or convince me of the opposite... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Scoogs Posted September 28, 2012 Members Share Posted September 28, 2012 {censored}.... SG's are guitars I could own 3, 4 or 5 different variations of. They are just {censored}ing bad ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members BeanoBoy Posted September 29, 2012 Members Share Posted September 29, 2012 Live at Leeds. SG with P90s and one of the sweetest guitar tones ever, IMO. I saw The Who at The Fillmore. That SG with P-90s was one of the greatest Rock tones I've ever heard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members fulltone1989 Posted September 29, 2012 Members Share Posted September 29, 2012 What about the SG Classic? I thought it was pretty much the same thing.

Members Texas Noise Factory Posted September 29, 2012 Members Share Posted September 29, 2012 Looks great in black. Glad they finally did one with the inlays. Looks proper now instead of a lowly optioned guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Carbohydrates Posted September 29, 2012 Members Share Posted September 29, 2012 Very nice. I guess I'm in the minority of people who like dot inlays on their SGs, but that's mostly just nostalgia for my old Special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me state that I am only going off cosmetics. Carlos Santana rocked one at Woodstock when trippin B@lls The way I heard the neck shape described sounded like it's the exact opposite of what I'm after. I think the necks on these new standards are supposed to be chunky but still slim and fast enough for smallish hands, where as the classics supposedly feel more like basbeall bats...

Members thom Posted September 29, 2012 Author Members Share Posted September 29, 2012 Very nice. I guess I'm in the minority of people who like dot inlays on their SGs, but that's mostly just nostalgia for my old Special. Yeah I'm weird like that...I usually prefer my fenders as low profile as possible, nothing but the essential. But when it comes to an sg, les paul or es -335...I need block inlays, double body binding, chrome pickup covers...The works. Classy but not gaudy, just black and chrome, no veneer flame tops or gold hardware or anything like that:) 'Junior' models are an exception to the rule. Inlays aren't a must, but dots with neck binding= Actually the only good reaon I can think of not to go order this guitar, would be to save up for another one. Like an ES-335:) $1800 for a brand new one though...never gonna happen:( Perect condition used ones usually go for just a couple hundred less around here:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members thom Posted September 29, 2012 Author Members Share Posted September 29, 2012 Just cause we can never have enough sg pron Could get that one for just a little under 1100Euro. Not sure what to think of the toilet seat look of that body, but the small guard looks badass. Too pricey to focus just on the cosmetics though, I'd really prefer P90s, I'll keep my humbucker money for my future es-335... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members *BLEEP* Posted September 29, 2012 Members Share Posted September 29, 2012 That is sweet, man. What's the neck profile? Pretty sure it's the "normal" modern SG profile, which is a bit thinner than the less common thick mid 1960s neck profile. I like the thicker neck profile, because it seems more stable, makes louder and gritter toanz and is more responsive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
