Sometimes I whish I could live in America. :( There's so many good guitars there...
-
Yeah. Unlike most people I know, I admit my very first criteria for gas is the look of the guitar. I don't need a 3hb guitar. But I really can imagine me with the white custom. Go figure. :) Besides, though it's an excellent idea, I couldn't use the rotary pot.
-
You're right. And again I think you were right before (with the youtube vid :D ). It won't break just like that anyway, even if adrenaline on stage can make you do things you won't think you'll do.. anyway. I came too late on both SG custom auctions, and they both been sold for 1500€. So now I'm holding my breath until another good price shows up. (Damned!) Besides there's a neat Ebony SG3 for sale at a decent price. Apart from the standard finish and the rotary switch, I can't see any other major difference with the custom. Do the Custom sports Honduran Mahogany ? BTW, I've read most of the pages of this topic trying to find answers, and I've seen the sg3 singlecoil routing picture. It has a long tenon (that still differs from the 60's SG Custom wider long tenon) and it is routed for humbuckers (or it does really look like it is), so mduke22 should be able to mod his guitar to 3HBs with no harm :)

Hahaha! harmful effects of a camera...

According to the 'warning' friend, it's all about the neck joint. Anyway my gas is stronger than advices. The problem is that I have no choice but buying one online. It's not the kind of guitar you see here in shops.

I'm gasing to death for a White custom, but a friend who knows a bit about guitars - especially those you bring on stage - told me the SG custom is probably one of the most beautiful Gibson model, but also the most breakable. He also told me the last decade models were built stronger. Any thoughts?
-
Kindof. Thanks anywway :)
-
Thank you guys, now I'm seriously in the market for one. Anyway, I was wondering if there always been long tenons on SG Custom. There's a 1987 and a 1998 ri for sale, and though some would'nt care about this, I do, in a crucial way.

Thanks again mate!
the tuning is: DAGDAD
With this tuning you can pick wrong it will still sounds cool ^^'
-
I checked out some more of your YouTube videos. I love the Art & Lutherie open chord noodling video. What tuning was that? It was great.
In my last band we had a song in sort of an open d tuning. I don't know what it was called but if you strummed the strings open it would be a d minor. I also just recently tried open g and that's pretty cool too.
-
Haha yeah. I'd record some stuff but I don't have any equipment or a computer. Also my last band broke up. I could play all the parts myself but I also don't have a drumkit or a bass. I'm in a pickle lol.
Actually I have some crappy recordings of improvised jams on my iPod from my first band. I don't think I can post them though.
-
Hey you're very welcome!and thanks for your comment on my vid. Let's say I feel the need to play at least 2 or 3 chords to be able to talk about guitars as something else that decorative furnitures. Some don't need that :)
-
Thanks man. Your guitars are awersome. I love the Wilshire.
But I watched that video (the one that says 1975) and I dug it. It was very tight. It was 70s prog rock sweetness. You rock man!
I was really surprised. Most people on the forum seem to have all the toys but don't know how to play.
Not trying to kiss your ***. I just thought that was a cool jam.
