Your avatar and name is Repeater, and you prefer LP's?

Heresy, I know.
I prefer Rickenbacker's to LPs though ;)


Oh you. :thumb:

SGs feel so sexy. even those faded models feel great. Don't think I've played one of the p90 models(yet) but it sounds like it'd be amazing.

They are. one of the coolest I ever played was a old brown one pickup SG special [60's-70s], didn't sound like what you would think a gibson would at all, soooo teleques but with more sustain.

I have a Sg Classic with P-90s and love it, I'm actually anxious to get home from college to play it because I've been playing my Telecaster everyday up here. If I had my way and money I'd have an All Ebony SG Jr. and a vintage Pelham Blue Melody Maker with the Sg body, white pickups/pickguard, and tremolo. UNF.

SG is still the most comfortable to play for me, sounds bitching too. I've had thoughts about a custom SG that's as thick as an LP to have a heavier version.

SG 250s are like that, but they have melody maker pickups and most were maple.

I want another Burny SG for low tuning, really want a three pickup one... rare though...

Ok, those SG-250s actually looks like the bastard child of a Tele/LP encounter. Perfect subject for some modifications. Apparently they didn't produce a whole bunch of them, but fun to keep an eye out for.
