SG-Shaped Guitar from Gibson belonging to the SG series

Then it made in the United States, normal for the high end Gibson.

24 cases, yes 24, no current trs on SG! bne not handle key trs pais (fender strato far from certain), but not Ibanez either (see the handle of my sword 540 s, type "pancake" as the body huhu tt)

UTILIZATION

The handle is not immediately trs enjoyable, I must say, it is an adjustment period. On "ripe" a little on the frets in dmanchs and slides. must not be afraid to give r rgulirement either, and yeah there is no block the strings on it!
But once this stage pass: there is a hitch!

CHAC is extremely acute in the ISSA for Gibson, we are not barr me the box but almost 24!

The playing position is a position that only have SG: trs forward at the right hand above: it is not specific to BLME, even if it may be noted from a lightweight sequilibre at the head, which may tend dive from time to time but nothing serious.

Small "default" which are not really so and who are more "characters" of the guitar.

SOUNDS

So l ...

I found the ULTIMATE SCRATCH (APRS over 12 years of guitar) !!!!!!!!!!!

OK it is beautiful, ok, there is a great wood, the key bne ok, ok the character and luxury ... but this is nothing when it comes to the sound of this guitar!

It is the that everything is: the 1st scratch (and I've tried strato fender, ibanez all HT-end, Jackson Phil Collen etc etc ...) that happens to ring any amp or distortion better than others!

Thank you the classic 57 GIBSON home I immediately find and leave me on the ass! With these pickups the whole thing sounds, seems a con to say but it's true!

It's warm trs, trs pais, hot like fire, like a lamp, you have to sing a Mesa Boogie V Twin as it is not possible and trs LIVING (It's Alive! !). I even surprised Chapper leave a lightweight thread of drool during the execution of the solo of sweet child o mine guns n roses)!

In fact it is the extreme opposite of a fender strato its level: it is not at all clear and crystalline in not cutting edge saturated.

9a does not sound at all like a les paul, even supreme, and does not sound like an SG that would have microphones 490, 498 or even 500! I think the guy who adcid to marry the violin with silent classic '57 do well!

Ideal for the big rock, blues, hard rock.

OVERALL OPINION

I have a few months, I do not play at all four of my guitars (ibanez, lag ...) I think it's a sign, has not ever done it to me!

I re-discovering all my amps and distos, even if I am aware that there are more comfortable as guitar (Vigier, Ibanez) is a renaissance.

the ITS, the ITS and ITS and still dcuple the pleasure of playing which ultimately is the most important I think.

Ay for me is, I find: "EXCALIBUR"!
