Anyone here buy an SG CM Black?

I saw one on eBay US that was listed twice at US$1000 for no bids and eventually sold for US$900.

Anyone got one and happy with it? I sometimes think of fitting one of these FRX trems to my 2007 SG Special Worn Yellow

Never even seen one in real life. Doesn't really float my boat to be honest. Seems like everything gibson isn't...

Low end, flat black basic look. Painted on split diamond headstock, I mean that's even cheaper than the holy inlay, but you paint on the custom shop headstock. And then the fender style whammy.

No offence, like I said never seen or played one. Not my style. I guess I am old fashioned, which is why I like gibson and the sg to start with. In my mind Gibson should just keep introducing minor changes and colors and make money for a lifetime. Everytime they do something extreme I lose my appetite, auto tuners, etc

No offence to anyone intended

LOL you are indeed 'old fashioned' if that whammy reminds you of a Fender rather than a Jackson or a Charvel

yeah, your bang on with the Jackson too. That's heavy metal gear to me lol
