theomont Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 Hey all. My name is Theo and I just made my first Gibson purchase. I picked up this SG this past weekend at Guitar Center. It must have just been put out on the floor because it doesn't have that Guitar Center finish (scratches) anywhere on it. It's a white standard with the coil taps. It's my first Gibson and definitely won't be my last. It plays great right now but can't wait to play it with a proper setup. Here's a pic of it along with my other guitars. Here's the others in the collection, my Martin HD28 and American standards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigKahune Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 Welcome. That's a great snag you've got there - ebony fretboard, coil taps. Congrats! Oh, and that other gear you've got by those other companies is pretty sweet too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theomont Posted May 10, 2010 Author Share Posted May 10, 2010 Thanks all. It took a little while to get used to the weight but right about now I wish all my electrics were as light as the SG. What a great guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeoConMan Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 Glad you survived the Guitar Center jungle safari and emerged with such a nice SG! From the looks of your other gear, you might have some experience in the matter. Good job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dub-T-123 Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 Nice choice on that SG. You don't see too many white SGs. Your other guitars look great too. How do you like the coil taps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackie Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 Yes ..............very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theomont Posted May 10, 2010 Author Share Posted May 10, 2010 I've played around with the coil taps a bit and its a nice feature but don't think I'll be using it much. I may find a good sound I like with the coil taps but for the single coil sound I'll stick with the Fenders. In picking this SG I was going for the finish more than the coil tap feature.

cowgard Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 Very nice Theomont. Just got an SG Special at GC myself last week. I went looking at the Les Paul Studio worn finish as my budget didn't allow for a fancier Les Paul. But after checking out the stuff, I decided I liked the SG Special enough better to spring the extra couple of hundred bucks for it instead of the Les Paul. My Heritage Cherry ain't as pretty as that white beauty you got though. David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
