I am a bit obsessed with these guys at the moment, he gets a huge sound from P90s
@roberty I wish I had a good answer to that, I love listening to stoner/doom metal but I'm hopeless at playing it... I'm sure the PT SG would have done the job though! If I'd kept it I think I'd have put a humbucker in the bridge and left the P-90 at the neck, I think that's a good combo.
It's the one thing that bugs me on the 2000 SG standard I got recently - the horns are definitely less sculpted than on the 2013 Standard I owned for a while (and, of course, the ultra pointy CS models!).
Again, it's total nitpickery, and on the whole I much prefer the 2000 over the 2013.
I’ve noticed that on guitars fitted with the long vibrola unit the gap between the back of the bridge and the vibrola seems to vary quite substantially - even on guitars that are roughly the same age.
What gives?
Amazingly, Ibanez actually copied this too... though they did still put a little carve on the horns. But those scratch plates.
One thing which has saved me from pointlessly blowing £5k on Custom Shop SG is the fact that 90% of them come with some kind of vibrola, I just want a stop tailpiece. The vibrola looks good though.
In terms of looks, faded Inverness Green, Pelham blue or cherry.
I regret selling it a lot - especially at the price I did: they're going for £200-300 more now.

My trading feedback - I'm a good egg
It's almost like checking banknotes for forgeries - once you pick up on the little key detail(s) that tell you the difference between the right ones and the wrong'uns, you dont bother looking any further
Have you ever looked into all the different SG neck joints they've used over the years? Some of them are really weird.
