But since getting in to guitars and to this day I still think Teles are beautiful but for some reason think SGs are hideous.
Wonder what caused such a radical change in my opinion.
When I loved the look of them I hadn't played one and by the time I had played one I'd already done a 180 on its looks.
Re the neck heavy thing, look at how Brent Hinds and Tim Sult set their SGs on a strap. It makes for a really comfy playing position and a lot of other guitars feel stretched out now I'm used to that!
There's definitely another SG in my future. I have a modded faded SG which became my go to for festivals, it has been my most gigged guitar over the past few years. Hasn't really been out the case this year with covid
As for "when am I ready?" You'll never be ready. It works in reverse, you become ready by doing it. - pmbomb
I did however end up 15 years ago getting a nice (and cheap!) mid-90's Epiphone Korina model which is absolutely amazing - especially since replacing the pickups. It has the most ridiculously low action of any guitar I've ever played, balances well and sounds amazing. So these days I still look at Gibbos and think 'Mmm...' but wonder just what benefits I'd get from one above and beyond what the Epi has to offer - other than the name on the headstock.
Whilst the rest of the world thinks Angus when seeing one, I always think of Robbie Kreiger and the best era of the Beatles.
An early 90s Cherry standard with an ebony board. Ive never seen another...
2 Pete Townsend sig specials (kept 1)
A humbucker special - really fucked black finish that I stripped and parted out. It’s long gone.
1979 standard - best playing one I’ve had. Major neck break, refret, refinish, all new electronics. Sold.
SG classic - kicking around in the house somewhere bereft of a few parts.
That’s the ones I can think of!
When I think SG I think Weller, 68 big guard and vibrola. I’d love one.
