So true. My Rickenbacker has actual oven knobs on her. Oven knobs! [IMG]
Yeah, no kidding around the pointers do serve a real purpose. I don't need memory or constant fiddling about to get the tone I like. I just go to...
Must have pointers. The cheapest and easiest and best mod for your SG. Seriously, without the pointers how exactly would I know if I am on 8 or 9...
Casinos are fully hollow. The Gibson 335 is semi-hollow, while the Gibson 330 is fully hollow. The Casino and the 330 are the same. I don't think...
After playing my SG for a bit I always reach the same conclusion: the SG is a fantastic guitar. Professional in every way. Everything works on it....
Well put. There is a certain something about playing a hollow body. This may sound odd, but a semi-hollow just seems more real than a solid body....
The best "substitute" for a Gibson 335 style guitar is the Epiphone Casino. I have two Casinos and if someone wanted to trade a Gibson 335 for one...

This is true probably for many people. The dearth of choices when it comes to colors might just turn people to other guitars. Gibson does...
Satan's guitar! :mad:
Good post. Interesting how the term Standard entered the Gibson line of guitars. "We don't want the P-90s. Give us what we previously had. Give...
Thanks...but it's still just only a standard. Should have been called an SG Professional. Gibson should have done it this way: Standard --...
I am not a Gibson guy. My SG is the only Gibson I own. It is a....wait for it....Standard. That name bothers me. Why did Gibson go for such an...
Baked maple. Anytime something comes along for a very brief time, that something becomes desirable. A mystique will grow around this baked maple...
No, I did not see that. Thanks. Shame that the daughter sold it. Yes, she got a very pretty penny for it, but....she should have kept it. It...
