In 2023 what are the best Non-Gibson SG guitars at the American Standard and Custom Shop price levels? Basically from $1799 to $5999, what are the best non-Gibson SG type guitars? Jaydee is obviously up there, but they've got a helluva waitlist.
Better yet, are there any guys on this forum that...
Up for grabs is a one of a kind (as far as I know) Mod Shop Gibson SG Modern. I purchased this in 2021 as a backup guitar and unfortunately didn't bond with it like I thought I would. It's got a compound radius fretboard that's just too much for my smaller hands. This screams though and is...
If anyone knows anything about these cherry red Burny RSG-70 customs please share your info here. This guitar is the only example in cherry red that I’ve seen pictures of online and it’s used as a reference photo on Solid Guitar Fandom. Solid Guitar Fandom lists cherry red as an option in 1989...
I bought this brand new 2014 SGM from a shop here in Colorado for the used price cus they changed out the robot tuners the second it came through the door, apparently. Since then I added the pickguard, changed the knobs, switch tip, put nickel pickup covers over the ‘61 zebra guys that were...
I’ve built SG style guitar from scratch(the body) from an old bar top and I have these pick ups I bought which have an black earth wire, yellow/green & red conversion wire and a white live wire. (I’ll add pictures to show) I also have a les Paul solderless wiring harness. I’ve wired it with the...

Hi, I have wanted this guitar, the Zappa Roxy SG ever since it came out in 2013. The problem is, that only 400 were made and they fly off the shelves of the internet every time they get stocked. If anyone has one for sale, or knows someone who is selling one, or even has one at all and can maybe...
Hi there,
I am currently playing around with the idea to have a local luthier build me a custom SG, however I thought getting some info and advice from some builders around the forum would be a good idea as well.
As a fan of the SG, and owner of a few over my time playing guitar, I have always...
Gibson informed me this serial number belongs to a 2006 Custom Historic 62 Reissue
It was only made for a year as a limited run by Guitar Center, there are 200 in existence!
Stock grovers
ABR1 stoptail
Classic 57’s
Larger neck profile
The only other one I can find online from this run is from...
Hi all, new member here.
This is my '78 SG custom, what for many years considered my dream guitar (and still do I suppose). It's clearly been well loved in the past, but aside from the cosmetic wear has no breaks and still has the original tarbacks (which I love).
My only gripes are these...
First thing this morning I checked into another guitar forum and saw a post by someone who'd just received a new guitar with a nasty neck break. Felt really sorry for him, but with an hour to go before the courier was due to arrive, it really wasn't something I wanted to see...
Thankfully, it...
Hey all,
Chasing info on SG serial 030520363.
It has a "Custom Made" plaque and a Bigsby tremallo
Looks a bit backyard but not sure?
Any information will be appreciated.

I haven’t been able to find anyboversided builds especially for SG OR REALLY ANYTHING THAT ISNT A BARITONE
Any one have any pics or direction they can point...
Hey everyone, i am soon going to undertake my first guitar build (buying a body & neck rather than cut a fresh one myself, not brave or skilled enough for that) i was wondering if anyone had any good advice for guitar kits for an SG? it seems real hard to find a UK supplier.
currently i found...
Hey Everyone,
i'm new to this forum and this is my first post, glad to be part of the SG community!
i have recently got into modding and customising my SG (e.g. custom scratch plates/volume knobs/replacing pickups) and one thing i really wanted to do was put a cool neckplate on my SG. to my...
Hey all! I wanna see all of the weird, crazy, awesome and beautiful SGs that are anything but stock! I´m gonna start with a show and tell about my baby, a 2005 Standard Natural Burst.
My customisation:
Faux leather paisly pickguard.
4x Push/Push(not Push/Pull) in a Jimmy Page schematic...
The 'flat top' pick guard in my avatar pic, have any of you seen anything like this? There is an old picture of Mary Ford and Les Paul with SG's that have this kind of pick guard as well as a rare "Randy Rhodes" SG with the same pick guard.
Is this something Gibson added when doing aftermarket...
New to this site, but i like it! Never new until today there was a place just for SG lovers hah
So i mildly regret painting my pickguard years ago and kind of want a replacement for my G-400. Every site i looked up so far either doesn't have a G-400 style, or they're really not reputable at...
