  • NGD the sparrow flies at night

    I'm going to wait to give a more in depth review. After I have spent more time with it. But so far it's actually pretty cool. It looks a lot better in person than in pics. The tone is almost like a tele and sg had a baby. Even without the coil taps there is a spankiness and brightness to it. But has no problem getting heavy.

    Interesting. That's a huge chunk of wood behind the bridge. How does it feel when standing (hanging from strap)?
    Is it a neck-diver?

      I haven't noticed any neck dive. But I use wide leather straps. The body looks a lot bigger in pics. It's about the same size as a firebird. There's not a lot more space from the bridge to the edge of the body than what's on an SG. Maybe a little more its been a bit since I played one.
      Weight is right at 8 pounds so its not too heavy.

            This is what I thought when I first saw the pic. Had a little chuckle when
            I read your response. Might just be the angle. I kinda dig it. Looking
            forward to a more in depth review. Enjoy!!!

            Peace,

                I like it when people get these off-the-beaten-path axes.

                What's the neck profile like? The Eclipse-shaped sig had a tiny neck, so I'm guessing this one has that also.

                  There seems to be a resurgence in non-reverse Firebird type guitars these days, which is definitely not a bad thing. What's the scale on the neck?

                    Congratulations! That one looks like a monsta. I've got a Silverburst RD that looks a lot like that one, it's beautiful but I've never really played it.
