Sg-3

[Elfunkenstein]

I recently played an SG-3, a Gibson SG with 3 single coils and a six position rotary switch. I was blown away. It was seriously one of the best guitars I have ever played, and I have NO IDEA WHY. I'm not just talking about tone here, though the tone was fantastic, I'm talking about playability. I tend to like skinny shred necks with big frets, so I have no idea why the SG-3, with its relatively small frets and large neck profile, was so awesome. Can anyone explain this to me? What is it about this guitar that I like so much!?

here's the guitar by the way: http://guitars.musiciansfriend.com/p...tar?sku=514173

Re: Sg-3

Every guitar is cut differently and every human hand is formed differently. You found a neck that matches your hand and statistics and measurements and specs have nothing to do with it.

This is why i encourage players to forget about what "they like" in a guitar because you haven't played 100% of every guitar built so you have no idea when you might find one that wins.

Re: Sg-3

I have a big soft spot for those SG-3's.

I would love to get one, one day.
Are you going to buy said SG ?

Re: Sg-3

You probably like the combination of strat switching options, SG ergonomics, Gibson scale and body materials. I would imagine this combination of features would yield a familiar, yet distinctive guitar.
