2014 SG with locking tuner upgrade. Thanks to Tod (Polar Bear) for the insane discount which made it possible.

Tube amp and guitar tones straight from 1958… amazing how believable the sounds were back then, even without the modellers...

Yep graphteq was standard that year along with the E-Tune which is now in the trash. I still need a truss rod cover that doesn't have E-Tune stamped on it. I photoshopped it out on the above photo. :moresarc:

I've had a thing for SGs ever since I saw The Blues Brothers. Rad guitar.

Oh yes...I think we're seeing more love for the Devil's guitar recently.

If it's screened on, just use some 600 grit, then 800, 1000 to remove the print. Quick polish and should be done. No need to spend more money.

Nah last one and because it had the wrong tuners and a couple of small dings I actually got it for less then 60% of retail.
