Supreme?

Twinfan · « **Reply #18 on:** March 29, 2007, 07:29:51 PM »

Nope. I'm a bit more traditional ;)

A discontinued signature SG... (you said we were very close when mentionned the Angus Young sign...)...
The Pete Townshend sign SG? :?:
It's traditionnal right? (2 P-90s)

Nope - I'll put you all out of your misery before you get bored! It's one of these:

Pffft.

I should get a cookie or summin, can't really get closer than saying an Angus Young sig, since I didn't even know those things were in production still :<

Damn, I was still working on my guesses! I was going to say Pete Townshend or Elliot Easton SG (although I'm not sure if you can get the latter right-handed).

Lovely SG! :D

They do still make the odd very small run of '61 reissues with vibrato, but not very many at all.

The EE Sig comes in right handers too Phil. Bit out of my price range though :)

Yeah, I forgot you mentioned the price earlier in the thread :oops: . It's nice, though, that Pelham Blue colour. I'll buy one if they do a production model.

Well I've been to Peter Cooks today to check out the SG and it was very nice. Apart from the completely knackered headstock area where a mokey with a sledgehammer replaced the original nut, the scuffed case and the loose volume knob

I could live with badly scuffed case and even the nut (once I'd had my local luthier tidy it up a bit) and I could sort out the lose knob myself. However, they weren't prepared to budge on price. A £100 discount does NOT make up for condition of the guitar and I wasn't paying £1199 for it.

I also went to Denmark Street to try and find another '61 reissue SG. Not one in sight. In fact, hardly any Gibsons anywhere. Absolutely LOADS of Epiphones though - there must have been 30+ in one shop alone.

Is there ANYWHERE worth shopping for guitars any more?
