🔥 SG fever! 🔥

[MichaelW]

You don't say? Greco in Italian means Greek so just like in The Wire, the Greek isn't even Greek. And Tokaj is a type of Hungarian wine. What's it doing in Japan?!
The plot thickens.

Looks like it was mainly FujiGen (FGN) that made Greco's but also Tokai for some models.

Ibanez is a Spanish name. I mean, apart from Yamaha, is there any Japanese guitar company with a Japanese name?

EDIT: And Takamine. So, I guess there are a few...

BTW I wouldn't mind playing a Mitsubishi Custom, a Toyota offset or a Subarucaster

Here are some of mine.

I know that technically this is a Les Paul, I still count it as a SG.

Gentlemen, we have a winner.

If they didn't have such a thin neck I'd have grabbed one of the newer epiphone sg in sparkling burgundy. The colour looks amazing on these

Man, I did not need to see this....

Although I'd be leaning towards the Pelham Blue one...

Any of y'all find SGs really uncomfortable to play?

They tend to be neck-heavy, but I'm usually on my butt.

Not really. My conversion has 0 neck dive which I was kind of worried about given it on regular sgs but I’m usually sitting down anyway

 

[Coda]

Is that the Epi?

Yep.

Not at all, quite the opposite. I’ve never had a guitar “fit” this well. I never thought I was an SG guy…I haven’t played anything else since March.

Yep, I don’t play mine that often. I haven’t really notice any neck dive, though. I just find it awkward to play.

Always wanted an SG, finally got one, Epiphone SG Standard. Wanted a Gibson, but completely blown away with the quality/tone of this Epi. Have all the gear to set it up with split coils, but I love it's current sound so much, I don't know if I want to change it. Played an Epi Pro with splits at a guitar shop and absolutely loved the tones I was getting out of it. Decisions decisions......

Here are my two devilhorned rockmachines.
"Rosie" a 2001 SG Classic, and "Rougedeux" my 2020 61' standard.
Yeah.. theyre on the floor..
But no SG was harmed during the making of this photo

Am I the only one who feels the 24 3/4 scale neck is just too short? I can never get along with it which has precluded many options for me… I have long fingers, I should’ve been a pianist!

This is a dream. Those are awesome. Or the forest green with the red tortoise shell. I've never played the P90 loaded SGs but I can imagine they push a fuzz like no other.

Nope, I prefer it
