    Here's a picture of the nut's spacing.

    High e slips off.

    It slips off the fretboard. It's a 2008 SG Classic, don't know if it was Plekd. Bought it used. I'm using the standard Gibson gauge. I will take some pics.

    High e slips off.

    The high e string on my SG Classic slips off easily. It is very difficult to do pull offs because of this. Should I buy a new blank nut and take it to a luthier, or is it ok if I get a pre-shaped one?

    Rewiring an SG Classic.

    What's the benefit of linear vs audio for volume control? Wierd that StewMac sells only audio pots.

    Rewiring an SG Classic.

    I'm currently interested in rewiring an SG Classic that came with a PCB. I got some vintage caps, just need the caps. Will 4 of the 0016's caps from StewMac work as a replacement? STEWMAC.COM : CTS Control Pots

    The neck on the SG Classic.

    Haha true, but I read the negative comments about the "big" neck after I bought it. I'll post pics soon.

    The neck on the SG Classic.

    I'm very aware about this, and know that it is solid advice, however, I don't live in the U.S. and there are no quality guitar stores where I can just play good guitars to cherry pick one. I took a huge gamble by ordering the SG online, even more so because it is a used model (it cost 599 plus...

    The neck on the SG Classic.

    I think it's the C shape that all American Standards have.

    The neck on the SG Classic.

    I've recently ordered a Gibson SG Classic. I'm wondering if the neck profile is too thick or large. I've read that the Classic is known for it's big and fat neck. I'm used to Fender neck profiles and don't have large hands, do you think I will have problems bonding with the neck?

    Choosing the right 500k pots for my SG Classic.

    Thank you. Those were some great recommendations. I'll definitively change things slowly, if I feel it's really necessary.

    Differences between the SG Classic and the SG Special VOS.

    What are the differences between the Gibson SG Classic and the SG Special VOS with P-90's? They seem to be very similar apart from the obvious pickguard and neck differences, but they VOS costs much more ($999 vs $2999, IIRC). Is it worth getting the VOS Reissue vs the Classic?

    Choosing the right 500k pots for my SG Classic.

    Thanks! I just want them to be closer to vintage specs. I'm also installing PIO caps.

    Choosing the right 500k pots for my SG Classic.

    I've ordered a SG Classic that should arrive next week. I've read that it's a good idea to change the stock 300k pots to 500k. However, there are quite a few choices, and I'm having trouble choosing the right pots. Here's a link: STEWMAC.COM : CTS Control Pots Which pots should I order...
