    Open covers give an unusual style to the Gibson SG

      Sameth - 2007 Gibson SG Standard ('50s neck) in Ebony
      • SD P-Rails w/ Triple Shot rings - pull neck tone for series, pull bridge tone for phase
      • Refretted w/ Jescar 57110-S & nibs removed
      • Tuned to E standard
      Ellimere - 2003 Gibson SG Special in Blue/Teal Flip-Flop
      • SD Custom / Jazz - pull neck tone to split both (hum-canceling), pull bridge tone for series
      • Tuned to Drop-D
      Both guitars:
      • Bigsby B5 w/ VibraMate Short Tail
      • Tone Pros roller bridge
      • 500K CTS volume pots
      • 500K CTS push-pull tone controls w/ .015 & .022 Orange Drops wired 50s style
      • Gotoh locking Klusons
      • TUSQ-XL nut
      • Dunlop Strap Locks
      • PRS Lampshade knobs
      • Knob pointers
      • Blank trussrod cover
      • D'Addario EXL-110 10-46
      I'd really love to refret the blue one too, but not sure when that'll be in the budget. The black one as it stands is pretty much the perfect guitar for what I'm playing these days.
      What are your thoughts on the PRails?

          Yeah I really like them in this guitar. They are a pretty versatile pickup.

            They're versatile; the Triple Shots allow four different sounds from each pickup. The P90 and rail are self-explanatory, while series and parallel provide two additional sounds. Series is comparable in output to a JB or Custom, and it sounds somewhat like a Gibson Iommi 'bucker. Parallel OTOH is similar to a '59 in terms of output, but sounds somewhere between the P90 and a bright PAF. The only sound I don't use is the neck pickup in series as it's just too hot and fat to be usable with my rig. Overall I probably use both P-Rails in parallel about 2/3 of the time or slightly more.

Which is why many people play electric guitars but very very few of them are actually musicians.

                    Stressful job, then stressful job hunt. Should be done now so I'm revisiting some fun places. Nice to see you, too.

                    My photography is kinda limited now, no longer have my house in BOS.
