That's really hot! i'd really fancy one myself... i've never been a complete fan of the feline eyes, except here. They work well here!
a PRS scale SG, gonna be interesting!
I'd love a warpig if they nail the first album Sabbath tones...
*looks more closely* is it missing a fret? i'd have been tempted to jam in a extra fret right at the end there, looks like theres room for it!
Thanks for the nice comments.
We were trying to address a few of the usual shortcomings of the Sg with this one
The Eggle Iommi model had a few similar ideas too.
The thicker body allowed for a stronger body to neck join
It also allowed for a better balance - as too many SGs tend to nosedive
Another strength thing was putting the jack on the side of the body too - as I get to see too many ripped out jacks on SGs
The 25" scale allows for a bit tighter tension on the strings (useful if downtuning) and gives better definition too
The pickups are in the same spot that they always are on an SG
Most Sgs just have a gap between the neck pickup and the end of the board - I simply extended the board for greater rigidity and had had plans to inlay a pearl motif there if I had wished , but have always been happy with it unadorned.
It has an Earvana nut too for improved intonation.
The frets are Dunlop 6155 which is the same size as they put on PRS guitars - has a nice feel - neither too vintage or too modern, but very comfy.
They pickups have the double row of allen head screws - they just dont stand out too much on the Camo covers.
We've left them flush with the cover but they could be raised selectively to tune the response of the pickups a bit
It's a good beefy sounding guitar - glad to see it going to a good home.
