dbreslauer Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 i've seen lots of dislike for this particular model, and I guess that alone made me like it more in a way. I've wanted an SG anyway, so i couldn't resist... and, next to the "handsome child": :- it's surprisingly heavy for its size, being solid birch and all. a nice fast neck, but needs some heavier strings. I'm also going to put a seymour duncan pearly gates in the bridge, and I'm thinking about a P90 or similar in the neck. so far, i like the way it plays, feels very nice. Cheers, Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milod Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 I guess I made so many stupid swaps in my "youth" (e.g., up to around age 50) that I think the criteria are whether the thing sounds like you want and plays like you want and the rest of the world can go jump in a lake. You like it? That makes it a wonderful choice! m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SweetMarie Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 Does that guitar have a wide fretboard or is that just the photo? It almost looks like the neck in that Buckethead model - or even a classical guitar. Interesting.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting.... i think it's an optical illusion next to the LP, which has a binding where the SG doesn't. at the 22nd fret they both measure 2 3/8". the SG Neck is longer, with 24 frets.

retrosurfer1959 Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 very unique and different combo I like the Black and white the colors were a little too much for me. Hows it sound copared to other SG's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jameslucascalvert Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 I just threw up in my mouth a little bit. :- But it is a Gibson, and I'm sure it sounds fantastic. To each his own! I'm glad you like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanvillRob Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 I really like the SG...the Zoot.....not so much..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shnate McDuanus Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 Actually, I really like some of the Zoot Suit color schemes. I like that one, the black and orange, and the black and red--the black and natural that you have looks great, IMHO! The ebony board and master volume/tone are also strong selling points for me. Do you think you could post some sound clips? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L5Larry Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 He now, I take offense to the title of the thread, I am a "red headed step child"[biggrin] . Actually, that is one wild-*** looking guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
