Apothecurious Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 Alright so maybe a couple weeks ago I posted some pics of some stuff I did to my SG Standard. I got rid of the diamond plate and black knobs. Replaced them with white Speed Knobs and a 3-ply white pickguard. Looks a lot better IMO. List of crap I added to it: Schaller Straplocks White SpeedKnobs White/Black/White 3-ply Pickguard Tonepros Locking Tailpiece and TOM Bridge Seymour Duncan SH-6 Distortion (Black/White) Stainless Steel Truss Rod Cover (w/ my last name on it) Kluson/Tonepros TPK33 Locking Tuners I am officially calling this the Guitar Hero Guitar. It sure as hell looks like one now. Old Pics for reference: New Pics: I don't know.. i think it looks like one IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twiz Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 That looks pretty cool. Where'd you find white speed knobs? They're sick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EVOL! Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 I do like the reverse color scheme - dark finish, light pick guard. Those speed knobs are icing on the cake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pohatu771 Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 If you need knobs of any sort, I fully recommend Pinup Music Parts (formerly Long Island Music Parts). They have an eBay store (and a physical store, I believe, but I could be mistaken), and have every sort of knob or switch tip imaginable, in all different sizes (US, Metric, and "import"). I bought a set of blue bell knobs for my Spirit from them about a month ago. It was the only place that had them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apothecurious Posted October 5, 2009 Author Share Posted October 5, 2009 That looks pretty cool. Where'd you find white speed knobs? They're sick. On Ebay in someone's ebay store. I believe it was JC Guitars. If you look around Ebay you'll find all sorts of unique parts. Thats how I found the zebra SD pickup. Those are normally custom order only but some guy on ebay has a store for every imaginable aftermarket pickup in just about any color scheme you could think of.

Laney1566 Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Change out that cream toggle for white..IMO That mod would look cool on a classic with the white binding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apothecurious Posted October 6, 2009 Author Share Posted October 6, 2009 Change out that cream toggle for white..IMO That mod would look cool on a classic with the white binding. the only reason I think I'm going to keep the creme toggle cap is because it matches the tuners and the binding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
