I used 2 Seymour Duncan P90s, a Bigsby B7, and new electronics(replaced the rotary with a regular 3 way toggle, and installed a Fender TBX tonecontrol, and had a pickguard made at Terrapin.

Rewddawg1 Posted April 20, 2010 Author Share Posted April 20, 2010 You know I find this odd. I belong to 3 different guitar forums and have only come across four SG-3 guitar owners with humbuckers in them. Surely they are not that rare are they?

Surely they are not that rare are they? Aren't they all part of the GOTW series? I know there were only 400 made of my 3SC model. Also, they weren't very popular over here in Europe, with musicshops blowing them out for Epi-prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have talked to Gibson and they couldn't tell me how many of my model SG were made. I don't think my SG was a GOTW though. Maybe someone else can shed some light on this.

MaxHart85231281734137 Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 umm whats the GOTW stand for????? and when I contacted Gibby, they told me mine was 1 of 400 made as well, I sometimes see one or two up on the bay, but maybe if I hold on to it some day it will fetch a pretty penny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
