No separate category for SGs?

Re: SDUG ULTIMATE AXE - Category 8; Gibson Non-Les Paul Shapes ENTRIES

They is some sexy up in here! Gibson, really has made some amazing little pluck sticks, that are not Lester's.

And to think, the V and Explorer go back to what, '57-'58? SG's in '61? "I think."

Reminds me of mine. Tried to take a better picture (than the crappy iPhone pic before), but the room was dark and not photo friendly. And I guess I need to clean it up:

Is there a separate category for SGs, or do they get lumped in with Explorers, RDs, and such? The SG was, after all, Gibson's most popular guitar for many, many years. I think I remember reading that more SGs have been produced than any other type of Gibson guitar.

Re: SDUG ULTIMATE AXE - Category 8; Gibson Non-Les Paul Shapes ENTRIES

There's enough different models, and SG popular enough on its own, that I agree there could be a separate poll just for SG's (besides, I have an SG to enter and I've already submitted a V for this thread, LOL)

Too nice and too expensive. It was just sitting in the case. Also, all my other necks are slim and I didn't enjoy playing it as much with the fat neck. Figured I'd unload it while the 2013's were still new and hot and I bought an '01 Classic to replace it.

If Gibson starts making Classic White Explorers with ebony boards again, I'll get one. I'm not a huge fan of rosewood.
