61 SG Fianlly finished (modded)!!

Loving that green Phil!

Never seen one like that

Never seen one like that

I think it was the next series of SG-Xs after yours.  There were 3 in ugly colours with black scratchplates (Army Green, Chocolate Brown and Rust), then a little later they did 3 in pretty colours with white scratchplates (Caribbean Blue, Corona Yellow and Coral Pink - don't think we ever got them in the UK).

I also have an Ebony one, which must have stayed in production after they discontined the Dark Wineburst (is that what your one is?), because it has a scratchplate.

I love my SG, just want to kit it out with some BKP's and get a tortoise shell pickguard  *wub*

Mine's still work in progress...

Is this SG stock??? :?

My green one?  No, it's had quite a few mods, but nothing irreversible - black pearl scratchplate instead of the black one, a couple of different sets of locking tuners, coil split switch rewired to series/parallel, loads of pickup changes (ended up with a Riff Raff).

Here are the various SG-X models:

The white, green and warmoth SGs look sexy! I've always had a thing for SGs.

Oh I see! I've never seen before one of those... well, here in my country is very hard to see a Gibson, very expensive, so when you see one, usually is a Standard or Custom... the "unusual" ones never come... But I like yours (just the green isn't much my way  :D )

[AdamB]

Phil, you have an amazing memory!

SG-X's are great value for money, this one has a rebel yell in and it's much hotter than the one in my standard



I'm favouring that chair...

[Johnny Mac]

They all look gorgeous!  8)

Phil, you have an amazing memory!

Thanks  :) , but it's getting quite unreliable, unfortunately - I can remember things I read 25 years ago but I forget things I did yesterday!  If only I could find a way of converting a memory for useless facts into cold hard cash... (Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, maybe?)

I like the look of the black covered pickup on your 'burst SG-X, it really suits it.  I went into Peter Cook's once and one of the assistants was playing an SG-X that colour - he said "this is the best guitar in the shop"!

The SG-X to me is a perfect backup guitar, although i used it as my first when i had the standard, ultra light! You don't even realise you have it on when you have a long gig
