GC has a 30 day money back guarantee so I ask my son every day if he still loves the SG and if he wants to go back for the Epi Les Paul, and he tells me that he's sure it's the one for him. I can't comment too much on the guitar, cause it's always in his hands, though he goes to bed early :twisted: !]]> Guitar Players Discussion Riff Raff https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/new-gibson-sg-i-know-you-guys-like-the-pics/paged/2/#post-247701 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/new-gibson-sg-i-know-you-guys-like-the-pics/paged/2/#post-247682 Tue, 12 Jun 2007 15:33:33 +0000 Guitar Players Discussion musica23 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/new-gibson-sg-i-know-you-guys-like-the-pics/paged/2/#post-247682 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/new-gibson-sg-i-know-you-guys-like-the-pics/paged/2/#post-246656 Thu, 07 Jun 2007 06:56:41 +0000
The only thing that I don't like about the SG is the strap buttons. They are fairly small and I think, the way the front button is mounted behind the neck allows the strap to fall off easier. I think I'm going to invest in some strap locks.]]> Guitar Players Discussion Riff Raff https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/new-gibson-sg-i-know-you-guys-like-the-pics/paged/2/#post-246656 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/new-gibson-sg-i-know-you-guys-like-the-pics/paged/2/#post-246572 Thu, 07 Jun 2007 00:30:24 +0000
I did have to make a few adjustments to the pickup height. The neck pickup seemed to have far greater output volume wise than the bridge. This is because the strings are angled across the pickups, especially the pickup poles. I ended up lowering the neck pickup quite low, and raising the bridge pickup quite high. In addition, I raised the poles on the bridge pickup only. I was able to balance the outputs of both pickups nicely, I do not hear a volume difference when switching pickups. So if you've noticed this big volume difference between pickups this is what you have to do.

Get the Guv'nor Plus pedal by Marshall and you will get the great classic Marshall tones out of that EVJ amp.

Guv'nor Plus

If you are into AC/DC you can nail it with this guitar and this pedal. :twisted:

Have fun, the Faded SG is a GREAT guitar.]]> Guitar Players Discussion Wes Inman https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/new-gibson-sg-i-know-you-guys-like-the-pics/paged/2/#post-246572 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/new-gibson-sg-i-know-you-guys-like-the-pics/paged/2/#post-246534 Wed, 06 Jun 2007 21:26:40 +0000 Guitar Players Discussion Rahul https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/new-gibson-sg-i-know-you-guys-like-the-pics/paged/2/#post-246534 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/new-gibson-sg-i-know-you-guys-like-the-pics/paged/2/#post-246478 Wed, 06 Jun 2007 16:40:57 +0000 Guitar Players Discussion biker_jim_uk https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/new-gibson-sg-i-know-you-guys-like-the-pics/paged/2/#post-246478 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/new-gibson-sg-i-know-you-guys-like-the-pics/paged/2/#post-246449 Wed, 06 Jun 2007 13:06:34 +0000 Congrats btw
:D OK. :) I'll take a snap and stick it on the end of the Post Your Gear thread, rather than hijack this one any more than I have already... :oops:]]> Guitar Players Discussion Chris C https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/new-gibson-sg-i-know-you-guys-like-the-pics/paged/2/#post-246449 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/new-gibson-sg-i-know-you-guys-like-the-pics/paged/2/#post-246441 Wed, 06 Jun 2007 10:58:33 +0000 Congrats btw
