NGD Gibson SG Standard!!

great axe. i too am a SG guy. i own a agile les paul too.. but i like the easy excess to the upper frets from the SG body style. i own a odd ball tho. its when gibson bought kramer out in 07 i think. i picked this kramer sg up for 200.00; best 200 bucks iv ever spent. but the odd thing about it this: its a bastard of a child. its like someone in the Korea factory was bored or high.. and decided to hit the trash bin. cause it has a ESP SG body style, a Gibson custom neck. 57 classic humbuckers. Grover tuners. all mahogany. just one odd ball guitar. but i like it as im so un-perfect and broken; we fit like peas in a pod. i see the 2014 models are coming out with cryogenic frets this interest me much because i love my dean markley cryogenic strings. and the 2014 anniversary prices are very fair. congrats on your new baby. rock on.
p.s

im still enjoying my epiphone Sheraton II. ( again easy access to the upper frets. )

 

Tele's and SG's always go well together, always been my favourites.

 

Great trade! I like SGs... I'll get another one day, perhaps in white

 

Happy NGD. I've come close to getting an SG on more than one occasion but haven't pulled the trigger. Some day.

 

congrats! I too love the feel of my sg neck and I like the scale length

 

Cool guitar!Always wanted a sg maybe someday to hooked on teles right now.

 

That's a beauty. Congratulations. SG's are about as comfy as a guitar can get and they sound fantastic. Enjoy!

 

Beautiful, I have the same SG.....let me correct that my son currently has my SG and it is highly unlikely that I will ever see it again!

 

Beautiful guitar. An SG Standard is really one of the classics.

I have owned several SG's in the past, including a great Standard with a big fat neck. Over the last 10 years I got rid of most of my guitars to pay for other things, so I just bought my first US made guitar in quite a while, a 1999 Gibson SG Gothic. It will be a couple of months before I get home to see it.

In fact, this just reminded me and I uploaded a picture of me playing my old Standard as an avatar.

 

Great guitar. Just bought a new SG Special after years of exclusive Tele use. The SG is a great complement to the Tele -- still a simple, light axe with plenty of versatility.

Congrats!

 

Looks nice. SGs are sweet guitars and the only guitar that I think looks good in black. Congrats.

 

I'm an SG fan also but...........

I still prefer the good ol' Telecaster. I had three SGs but I took one (faded red finish) to California in October to give to my daughter. I still have an Epi SG which is the satin black "Goth" model. My favorite though is my "Raw Power Series" SG Gibson put out in '03. It's all maple and really covers all the bases. I have it rewired with a master volume and tone on the top two knobs. The bottom two are pull pots with a phase switch in front and a coil tap in the rear. I also installed a Bigsby Palm Pedal B & G bender device. The only drawback to this guitar and the reason it's not my #1 is the Gibson jumbo frets which I absolutely hate. Jumbo frets are one thing I can't stand on any guitar............Here's a couple of shots of it...........JH in Va.

 

You can make an SG twang and rock,no muddy stuff going on. I like them.

 

Congrats! I'm a big Sg fan myself. I went years without having one and finally bought another this past September. They are such a no nonsense, no frills kind of guitar that I've always thought of as Gibson's attempt at making a Telecaster. Everybody should own one.

 

SGs can certainly twang like a Tele with the right settings. Listen to Gary Louris's playing on any of the early Jayhawks records. You'd swear it was Tele but it's all SG.
