One of my mates here, an ex-pat Brit, got an SG in the States when he was student and brought it over to Colombia on his first trip. He got married and was moving back to the UK, and gave it to his brother-in-law -- but his brother in law is pretty much an acoustic player, and just kept it under his bed! Now my mate is back here in Colombia again after a few years in the UK, and is trying to figure out how to get it back without looking like he's nicking his own gift ;) And I'm wondering if I can buy it off the brother-in-law for a cut price! :lol: Oughta be in near mint condition, however decent an SG it is otherwise.
I dig the SG shape and lightness -- I even kinda like the strap button on the neck/body join. However, already having an LP, I've been attracted by the idea of an SG body with a 24-fret neck (blasphemy, maybe, but still ...). Actually, I'm almost into the idea of an "SGcaster", with 24 frets and an HSS configuration -- but I'm not actually sure I'd know what to do with that many pickups (being a long-time LP "HH" player)! :lol: Maybe, then an MQ in the neck and something else in the bridge .... That Warpig I've always dreamed of maybe? :twisted: Or perhaps something slightly more refined to bring out leads with those extra frets ... a Painkiller or HD or something.
Ah, gear dreams! 8)
