badbluesplayer Posted July 30, 2019 Posted July 30, 2019 And all of a sudden, here's this Mark Agnesi video of him grinding out some serious riffage on an SG and I'm like "Oh, hey Mark, duh, uh, sorry for making fun of your jacket. 😬" He just kept riffing away on the video and like five minutes later I bought this. He said "This is the guitar you're looking for." I said "This is the guitar I'm looking for."  Â
brad1 Posted July 30, 2019 Posted July 30, 2019 Congratulations!!! I love SGs. Looks great! How does she sound?
jdgm Posted July 30, 2019 Posted July 30, 2019 Very nice too..... I borrowed a '61 reissue SG (think it's 90s or early 2000s) a few weeks ago.  Never really had the chance to work out at length on a SG before. Â
pauloqs Posted July 30, 2019 Posted July 30, 2019 I recently sold a 2018 SG standard, which I really didn't like. It felt like one of those guitars that you had to fight it a little bit to get something good from it. That might be suited for some people, but that's not particularly my favorite brand of bourbon. I don't think that is an issue with SG's in general as I've played some amazing ones before, but just an attribute of the one I recently sold. I'm seriously considering an Original Collection SG Standard 61 like the one you posted. I'm deliberately not trying one out for the moment for fear I might end up pulling the trigger a bit sooner than I want 🙂.Â
kidblast Posted July 30, 2019 Posted July 30, 2019 SGs, once you fall for one of them, you aint getting back up.  That one looks delicious! Â
Big Bill Posted July 30, 2019 Posted July 30, 2019 God damnit, now I'm going to buy an SG! Congrats!!!

Tman Posted July 30, 2019 Posted July 30, 2019 Congrats, nice! I love it when other people besides me aren't able to stop themselves from getting another guitar.
SteveFord Posted July 31, 2019 Posted July 31, 2019 Don't scratch the piss out of that handsome guitar with your black pretend biker leather jacket, please.
arcticsg Posted July 31, 2019 Posted July 31, 2019 Congratulations!  The Sg Standard '61's are NICE! 🙂 Trying hard to resist....Â

Nice Guitar! Â
Twang Gang Posted July 31, 2019 Posted July 31, 2019 Very nice, congrats. If you haven't had one before you will be amazed at how much is sounds like a LP, but lighter, and easier upper fret access. Of course in '61 it was the only new LP 😉
