    SELLING: Gibson Mod Shop SG Modern - VERY RARE!! - $2000

    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...

    What do you think of this upgrade on a Gibson LP Standard?

    Do you think this was worth the £1500 in upgrades or should I have left it as it was? It plays absolutely brilliantly!

    Wanted: Frank Zappa Roxy SG

    'Modern' SG custom build - ideas and questions for a potential build

    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.

    Gibson S-G Custom 1978 — Fretting About Frets

    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...

    NGD: SG Custom, P90, Maestro, VOS lamp black

    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...

    A rare pick guard or home made job?

    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...
