Just did a trade with a guy for one of my guitars and ended up with this beauty
It's a real beauty and condition wise it's like it's never left the case
Condition is so mint I'm almost scared to take it out of the case
The workmanship would easily make Gibson blush

I've just posted it up also in seconds out to get some interest going for anyone that might want to take it off my hands
These are over £2000 new
I would keep it myself but I desperately need to pay for some materials I am buying in for the 2010 Ltd Edition Lions
Otherwise I would go and trade it for a Gibson J185 or something similar

I saw the thread in Seconds Out, it's a beauty! :D
I know it's pointless, but I'll ask anyway.... what's the weight? And what's the neck profile?
-
Weight is fairly heavy (10 lbs) and neck profile is like a Gibson 59 LP
Plays nicely too!
-
that's very nice :)
-
Very Nice! I used to have one of it's big brother variants a sparkle black SG3000!
Awesome guitar but stupidly I sold it!!
:x
-
That is gorgeous! I never would have guessed it would look so good in black. Very classy.
-
Jonathan, what are you doing to me?!?!
-
And the question that everyone wants to ask is.....
How much?
:lol:
-
MAN -- that's the Rikk Emmett guitar! Just in black, not white.
That thing is bad @ss!!!
-
That is very, very tasty!!

Ooh - I'd forgotten about Triumph - they were a good band
The guitar still has the protective plastic on the scratch-plate and rear covers - that's why they are not all shiny in the photos
I 'd love to get about £1500 for the guitar, but am open to sensible offers
She'll be even better once I've had a chance to give her a great set-up

Corrected. ;)

I will forever want one of these. Probably the most solid guitar I've ever come across.
-
One of my favourite ever guitars for sure. I fell in love with it when I first heard Santana's 'Moonflower' album many years ago and to my mind he's never had a better tone. His PRS is nice but nothing like as good as a Yamaha SG for tone imho
-
Absolutely beautiful; I love Yamaha SGs, If it was mine and of course if it was a lefty, I'd have to keep it. The Yammy SG is one of the guitars I've used as a benchmark for my own guitars ever since I started making them.
:)
-
I got to see this briefly yesterday, it is very beautiful but very heavy!
Fortunately the case is nice and light, so it wasn't a problem carrying it from Scream Studios back to Feline Guitars.
(Aside: Why are some cases so bloody heavy? Carrying my PRS Mira X almost gives me a hernia, even though the guitar itself weighs 5 pounds! :x )
-
That is a beautiful guitar.
After many years of searching, I recently found an old (80s) SG1000, which is a stonking guitar, though "roadworn"!
This, I imagine, would be a whole lot better ... I'm not a huge fan of the vintage-is-better view, so someone please buy it before it tempts me anymore :)

If I can sell my early 80's SG1000, then (a) I can justify it, and (b) I can afford it.
Know anyone who wants to buy an original old SG1000 ?? :wink:
