Members droge Posted May 15, 2006 Members Share Posted May 15, 2006 speaking for Krashpad, I say let him in--he did show he used to own an Epi SG, plus duly demonstrating the proper use of it, that is, RAWKING OUT W/ IT!!!! That's the only way to fly!! Also, i'd forgive the Agile acquisition--no biggie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone have any experience with this? That'd basically make it into an SG Classic, which plenty of folks here have and love.I couldn't afford one so I got this cheapie import for $99:It's a great guitar, so your US-made Gibby should be even moreso.BK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
