why they don't make more SGs in white is beyond me

now there are millions of different color combos, and I'm not saying these are the be all end all but if I'm walking around a guitar store and see these I'll give em a second look.

Hrmm... for strats, I like black, vintage white and the surf colors - surf and seafoam green, daphne blue, sonic blue, olympic white, fiesta red, tahitian coral...

 

For LPs, I like wine red, rootbeer and the faded bursts... iced tea burst, honey burst etc... Not a fan of the 'clownbursts' or anything with a pronounced red ring. I know it's fashionable to say that these days, but I hated it back in the early 80s. The first Les Paul I ever played was about a 10 year old LP with a really REALLY red ring. Between the horrid red and the fact that it probably weighed 13 lbs, I was almost afraid to play them or look directly at them for the next 10 years.

 

:lol:

 

I also dig silver and/or pewter on the right guitar.

I'm about halfway done refinishing my parts strat in Sonic Blue. I've enjoyed it so much I think my next project is going to be a seafoam tele.

i love white guitars but for me they gotta be snow white, as pure as a nun's hat or whatever they wear. also love funky off-beat colors like orange, green, and certain shades of blue. i'd also rock a purple guitar if the purple was dark enough. (i have very specific tastes on color haha)

 

can't stand black (just looks boring on everything to me), those pukey off-white colors and plain ol red
