NGD!

That’s a great SG! Great price, too! A few years ago I wanted to try out the Saturday night special set, and got a good deal on a ‘95 sg special to put them in. I set myself up with low expectations.

it is now one of the favorites in my arsenal. I love the pickups, but that late 90’s era sg special just really does it for me. I’d never have thought I’d love SGs , but they sure are awesome.

SG with a set of Saturday Night Specials.
I would imagine that I would like that.

It’s one of my favorite guitars. I absolutely LOVE the Saturday Night Specials. They do classic rock, yes, but are quite versatile.

Yeah for it about six months ago. Awesome little tone monster! This one is the older one without reverb.

Had both with and without Reverb versions. The one i have kept for many years is a non reverb I think they sound better of the 2.
I have a WGS ET 10 in mine and it's a little monster with a mic on it!!
Here is mine at super low stage level miced in a Church setting running only a delay in the loop.

Can’t see the video for some reason.

Great choice on the SG. I’m a Gibson fanboy though so….

Speaking of SGs... There's a 2002 Gibson SG Faded local for $600 with case. Thinking about it... if it drops to $500, I may pull the trigger.

I’m becoming one! My Les Paul Studio and now this SG are my number one and two guitars! My PRS is hanging looking pretty on the wall.

With a case? Go get it! Even if it’s less than perfect, that’s definitely a deal. Mine didn’t come with a case.

Lot of win there. I'd hit a $500 SG like trailer park tramp that didn't bring my sammich fast enough!*

* This statement is not meant to imply that hitting anyone ever, especially for slow service, regardless of race, orientation, or socio economic status is acceptable.

Man good thing I wasn’t drinking anything when I read this! Today is my birthday and I’m stuck at work so I needed this laugh.

Agreed and a SNS set is one of my all time favorites. Have a set now in my solid Black Carvin AE 185.

That is a fantastic deal at $600.

Yes I hope he snatched that.

Well it’s NGD again! Ended up getting the LTD today. What a different beast from the SG this is. LTD might be the budget line of ESP, but there’s nothing cheap about this guitar. EMG 81’s, Grover tuners, FR trem, ebony fretboard, and set-trough neck joint. It also plays amazing and it even came with a ESP hard case!

LTD has been making legit guitars. The 'cheaper' brands these days are nothing like the cheap brands of the 80s.

I have an older hardtail MH-1000 that is just a beast and a less expensive M-400 that for what I paid could rank up there with a bit more expensive guitar.

I remember one of my best friend’s number one gigging guitar was an LTD that I don’t remember the model. It had a carved quilted top, hard tail, and same set-through neck joint with passive EMG’s. He paid maybe 300 bucks for it. I couldn’t believe how nice of a guitar that was for the price.

This guitar feels higher end than my LP studio, and it’s right there with my old PRS S2 standard 22 I used to own. These are legit guitars.

Here’s a video I made putting it against my Sterling Majesty which is basically a direct competitor. Not perfect playing, but I think it showcases the tone differences.
