ALFA ROMEO CORSE Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 I always wanted an Ivory Gibson SG with gold hardware, my first goal was to find a white SG Standard. I found one like new with an ebony fretboard, the seller was agree to sell me the SG without the flightcase, I have a brown/pink TKL Gibson case.

665 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 I'm not really a fan of the TP-6 tailpiece personally, but that is one nice looking guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

btoth76 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Hello! Very nice guitar! Did You use the Faber iNsert studs as well? To make the best out of the Nashville/ABR-1 conversion, it is highly recommended! Cheers... Bence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALFA ROMEO CORSE Posted December 17, 2014 Author Share Posted December 17, 2014 Yes.

Bence No, I don' t use those Faber studs, my ABR '59 is installed on Nashville studs but that' s interesting. Anyway this bridge is not expensive and give a vintage look to the SG, a great upgrade. I think that the TP-6 kill the sustain that' s why I order a standard Gibson stopbar. I see that Faber have a mice stopbar too but my stopbar is on the way.

btoth76 Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Hello! Yes, sustain... That's why I used these studs. The increase is dramatic. Faber has nice, period-correct, light-weight aluminium stopbars. I might consider getting one, especially with those locking studs. Best wishes...

ErickC Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 I don't get the big deal, the difference in stud spacing is so small (especially given how inconsistent Gibson's guitars have always been) that I've never had a problem putting a Nashville on an ABR guitar when I get sick of the buzzing (or vice versa on the off chance that I feel the need to demonstrate that an ABR fits on Nashville studs). They fit without modification, even the 'vintage' ones - my ES-125 has a Nashville on it. The upshot is that I always have spare ABR-1s lying around, and need to start building new guitars and rebuilding cheap guitars more often. I'm tempted to burn one on the Danelectro, the stock bridge is starting to get on my nerves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
