kidblast Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 ya man I had to go hunting when I first saw this yesterday. in being totally subjectional I guess I can see the "Cool" factor for some players.. Me,, ahh I dunno,, I like the organic nature of wood, so I like the grain structure to show thru... to that end, I don't have, Nor can I ever remember having any guitars that have finishes where you can't see at least to some degree, the wood grain. hey Viva La Difference!

lolo_guitar Posted February 27, 2015 Author Share Posted February 27, 2015 i like very much this guitar why ? i have bought it for the look, the visual, the mirror and i wanted a sg to play where i want in the fretboard no limit like a les paul here, it's a highway ! until the highest frets and - pickups are really good the sounds are so good so warm, so jazz, so blues but i can play funk too !! sustain is good and all is possible with the volume there is no split but no problem too : this is not a strat :) -harmonics are good for the bridge position i don't need a sh4 i have never known if there was a 498 or 490 in the bridge position -the neck is round and completely different from a thick neck like some Ibanez guitars or strat - i can make awesome bends that i can't do with another guitars -action can be low too -problems? no problems at all but i would have preferred more trebles sometimes about the sound but for me, it's not a sg : it's the perfect mix between jazz blues and heavy metal perfect mix with a clean and a warm sound so, the sound is warm and it can compete with a les paul i have played with a few guitars and this one is the best of me : the sound and it's easy to play with this one i don"t know if a sg standard has a different sound: maybe a brighter sound because my guitar is "a special " but i don' t like, i prefer her name "sg new century" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
