My Gibsons

[studio1087]

I've been tempted by those SG Classics. The P-90s, neck shape, fret size- all perfect for me. The price is even good!

Yes. GC and MF.com charge $999 but you can find them minty used for $700. $700 is the magic ebay number....they all end up at about $700. I've wanted one of these for a long time and I found mine on ebay for $700 buy it now with free shipping. I went for it and the guitar was beautiful when the box arrived. It had the furry Gibson bag but I bought the generic (cheap) MF.com SG hard case for $45.



This is an affordable Gibson that is a lot of fun. I can turn my Princeton Reissue up to 5 without any OD pedal and nail a classic Who tone. I've had a PRS Soapbar SE and an Eastwood P-90 Special and two of the Tele Squier Custom II's and nothing compares to a Gibson P-90. I had a Melody Maker Reissue with the single P-90 and I sold it....I wanted two P-90's on the guitar.

I'm digging it.

I played one at GC yesterday and have played them in the past. I like the sound and the neck a lot.

I've always been on the fence about them because I have a PRS SE Soapbar II with Fralin P-90s that sounds and feels great (better than the SG in some ways, not as good in others).

I had a 2001 Jr with a single P-90 and it killed! It was very raunchy! It's the only guitar that I miss!
