Members adambomb Posted April 23, 2006 Members Share Posted April 23, 2006 they look {censored}in' awesome, and the features are incredible.mid-control circuit, white graph tech nut, over under truss rod for no sg neck wobble, coil-splitters for both pickups, locking grover tuners (not those stiff sperzels), extra-slim-taper neck, etc. good color choices too. i gotta grab me one of those. they have the features i would put in after-market right off the bat stock. i have only seen them in two of the six colors offered so far: candy red and daytona blue.

Members Alchemist Posted April 23, 2006 Members Share Posted April 23, 2006 The Les Paul GT with green ghost flame is one of the nicest pauls I have ever seen. I would love one, but the price is just too much:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members _pete_ Posted April 24, 2006 Members Share Posted April 24, 2006 Why couldn't they just add those features to the standard and ditch the stupid racing stripe and hood scoop? Sorry, it may sound and play great but it looks dorky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sonnilon Posted April 24, 2006 Members Share Posted April 24, 2006 Personally I'm not crazy about how they look, but if you buy one, you might wanna consider swapping out the pickups. I have the same ones in my SG Standard, and they're WAY too muddy and dark. You can't go wrong with Gibson, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members adambomb Posted April 24, 2006 Author Members Share Posted April 24, 2006 Originally posted by hondro the colors are cool, but all the "features" you said can be put on a normal SG standard for less than the GT goes for yeah, but the rods they put in the neck keep it from going sharp/flat every time you change your grip pressure on the neck like on most sg's with slim-taper necks. it is a little pricey, yes...

Members serpent561 Posted April 24, 2006 Members Share Posted April 24, 2006 Solid colors look terrible on an SG imo (except for ebony). The cherry and natural finishes look a lot better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Gochaz Posted April 24, 2006 Members Share Posted April 24, 2006 Those SGs look OK, and it's a good marketing move for Gibson. However, I could live without the bit of plastic over the bridge. Telecasters can make something like that work, but on an SG? Not my cup of (straight) tea. Also, they take the fun out of modding your guitar up to gigging standards, making it unique. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
