Upon quick glance, a couple of the SGs look nice. Everything else looks gross.

White SGs just look weird with a rosewood board. Also lolmin-etune

oh yeah I won't be buying anything and I didn't realise the minetune thing was standard, not an option. But still...this is a step forwards from the last few years.

I wouldn't mind trying out that semi-hollow bass in the Graphite color. That's about it for me

i'm not a bass player, but the 4 string eb bass is kind of the most appealing looking thing on there to me. robot tuning is fucking stupid and i can't imagine ever owning an instrument with that. most of what's on there appears to be total shit or is over priced. the sg special does look good, but some of the sg specials i've run across from the past decade have been unplayable garbage.

Fuck all that Min-E-tune bullshit. I have a 2014 SGJ tho, bare bones, none of that robot tuning nonsense, satin rubbed vintage burst, $399. That thing plays like a goddamn champ, destroys my old Standard SG. A few upgrades required but nothing major. And the new '61 Zebra pickups rule. Alnico IV magnets, more output but also more spank and high end than your traditional HB. Good stuff.

Cool to know. Makes you wonder how the LPJ plays.

But christ, their advertising division is a fucking dumpster fart in the stink department. Every image featuring somebody playing guitar is laughably bad.

SGJ sounds like a mid 90's Houston rapper name.

Makes my eyes bleed. As for the bass itself, just get your hands on a Casady?


Also, T-Birds still look rocking as hell. I wish I was RockStar enough to get away with playing one and not feel like a phony on the inside.
good deals are here.
flesh couch is here.

I kind of like the melody maker. Doesn't seem to be enough cheap p90 guitars out there.

Casady's only have a neck pickup. Mud-butt city.
