Yeah, having issues over here with the SG I bought used. Firstly, the guitar currently has Gibson 57s in it. I have the same pickups in my ES339, and although the neck pickup sounds like it should, the bridge pickup is super, super weak. I'm not talking the character of the pickup, I'm talking...

Re: Show me your favorite guitar(you own)! And I don't care if people don't give a ****! :) My J200 ; always my favourite guitar!

Just looking for general feedback. I got a Kirk Douglas SG this week and I absolutely love the resonance of the body, the carve of the neck and the overall feel of the guitar. I also really dig the vibrola for subtle, vintage trem work. With that said, the pickups and electronics are 'meh' at...

Re: Anyone tried 250k volume with ...... What do you expect from a thread that can be resumed with this picture.

For the second time in the last 6 years or so, my love affair with PRS has ended, and I decided to part ways with my 3xP90 custom 22. Didn't work out, time to move on. So here's the new 3 pickup girl in town. She's a 2013 'Captain' Kirk Douglas signature SG. Only 400 made, it featured a...

I just purchased a set of Lollar Blackface pickups for my strat. Already have a set of Antiquities in another guitar, so I figured I would try something new. So far, so good. More punchy that the Ants, yet still very vintage sounding. The cleans are not as chimey, but instead are more focused...

Re: Any Drawbacks Using a Humbucker For Middle Pickup in a Strat? You thought a HUMBUCKER in he middle position was a challenge? Rookies. Don't worry though, I just grabbed a hammer to pry out the middle pickup. It's been restored to playability.

Re: What do you think is the sexiest guitar ever made? I have a bias, but these guitars always leave me drooling...

Re: SDUG Ultimate Axe BEST WOOD My stomach flutters when I take her out of her case. I know it's not the nicest wood around, but I just love the natural shine. It almost looks silver under the lights, with a warm undertone.

Re: SDUG Ultimate Axe: Acoustic Entries I would like to submit my Gibson J200's candidature in this competition. She's been nothing but joy since I've acquired her. So that picture is my entry, but I still have to show off the rest of the guitar.

Re: Win The Book 108 Rock Star Guitars Gilmour's black strat. It would be a sin for it to be separated from it's owner though...

Re: SDUG Ultimate Axe; Gibson Les Paul ENTREES Well, not that I think I can hang with the bursts that have already been posted here, but in the spirit of adding to the pool of guitars already gracing this thread.... my LP. She's just a traditional, but I love that guitar. She has a JB in the...

I use to play Mesa amps extensively before, during the first few years of being in my last band. I love them when we developed out sound and were still playing covers. When we got to a point where we were playing all original music, I felt they didn't give me the sound and vibe I wanted, so I...

Re: Do I NEED this telecaster.... Well, I did post another thread, but here is the result of said gas......

Re: SDUG ULTIMATE AXE - Category 6; Hollow and Semi Hollow I don't expect that I'll be selected for the poll, but I figured I'd at least participate and add something to look at while all you fine people browse! :) My ES339 in a nice, rich red!
