Retired Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 Welcome to the forum unklemars. You picked a good one, a Standard. Yeah, I started at 13 and played around 17 years and sold everything. Picked it all back up 6 years ago. Wish I never quit but I got into lots of other things. Enjoy playing your Standard. Mine is a Gold Top, love it.

I like the tone much better. I've never had a SG but you will find a lot of SG owners here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
