MGR/Wolfy « Gibson SG Voodoo »
Published on 10/31/04 at 15:00Looking for a good (great) guitar I browsed shops here in Dublin, Ireland. Overpriced and without the case over here I bought it off Soundslive.co.uk for 1200 Euro. Dont know how much in Sterling or Dollars. Expensive you might say, but the price is little compared to what you get, and the case is cool too.
Initially I thought it may be like other SG's I'd tried, but it was different. In my opinion, better, other folk may dislike it, anyway. The humbuckers on it appealed to me unlike the other ones I'd tried out. The action is also very well set, not pressing down too hard and snapping your fingers off is a bonus. The look of it is also very slick, the red and black work so well on the SG. Also, not heavy, a big bonus. The Voodoo skull also adds a good, unique quality to it. And even though it only has side markers on the fingerboard you can still find your way around it.
There's not much I don't like as such. The part of the body where it rubs against my shirt is causing the finish on it to wear off, but that's repairable!
Built to last. The glued in construction of the neck makes this guitar built to last. I wouldn't ever feel the need to bring a spare to a gig with me.
This guitar has it all. Looks, screams like an angel, and is built to last. A sound investment!
