jaygl Posted July 5, 2011 Posted July 5, 2011 Hey All, Been nothing but happy with my new Standard 24. Here's some audio of it in action. Used it exclusively for all the demo recording for my new band. Sounds and plays just amazingly well. Highly recomended.Played through my 1975 traynor YGM-3. http://www.myspace.com/goldierocksband
bluezguy Posted July 5, 2011 Posted July 5, 2011 Good job Jay! When I got my 2005 Standard the other day I went out & bought a school boy outfit ... wife said "it don't work on everybody". Just a bit of personal trivia ... (1969)my first hi-power amp was a Traynor Bassmaster all tube head with 2 Traynor twin 15" cabs. This amp was Canada's answer to the Fender Bassman head which everyone was using for guitar back then. When I was 17 or 18 my band then (from Detroit) would work in Toronto a lot ... up & down Yonge Street and the Spadina/Queen Street corridors. One night in a club called the Gasworks, a young man came up to the stage and congratulated me on the earsplitting,deafening sound of my amp & original Les Paul Custom (SG). He was the inventor of those amps ... Peter Traynor. To me, it was kinda like having Jim Marshall walk up to ya or somethin' .. That head lasted me until about 1994. It just couldn't be serviced anymore.
BigKahune Posted July 5, 2011 Posted July 5, 2011 . Impressive work and sound. It's great to read about how happy you are with your SG. B)

I too had an old Traynor head...a YB...it blew up(literally....caught on fire) while in a session in a Toronto studio in about 1998....I ended up giving it to the producer who has gone on to work with many great artists. I often wonder if it's my old head I'm hearing on some of his work.I'm a Traynor guy for sure....not gonna compare to other amps, but to my ear it's a great pairing with the 57 classic pup,s in the standard 24.
jaygl Posted July 23, 2011 Author Posted July 23, 2011 Aquired my first battle scar on her lastnight at jam. A very slight ding on the headstock compliments of my mic stand. Ah well, first times the tough one, right? LOL.
Music Scholar Posted December 30, 2011 Posted December 30, 2011 I just purchased a Gibson 50th anniversary sg standard 24. I love this guitar.

EVOL! Posted December 30, 2011 Posted December 30, 2011 ...but to my ear it's a great pairing with the 57 classic pup,s in the standard 24. Hard to beat an SG with 57s. Aquired my first battle scar on her lastnight at jam. A very slight ding on the headstock compliments of my mic stand. Ah well, first times the tough one, right? LOL. Those are character. The SG I gigged extensively with from 2005-2008 looks like she's been through some rough times and I wouldn't have her any other way.
Music Scholar Posted December 31, 2011 Posted December 31, 2011 Thanks. I'm gonna keep this guitar forever. I'm so happy with it I'm gonna keep it just the way it is,no modifications. I'm playing "THE BLUES" with this guitar.
