With a good chunk of mahogany the SG can have more resonance than a Paul... When I started "replacing" guitars I got an Epi SG that just flat out screams. Love that guitar. It also has a one piece mahogany neck which Epi's aren't supposed to have. Go figure. Anyways.... "Solid" sort of survived the fire. Headstock is charcoal, looks bad but sounds and plays as good as ever. I haven't even changed strings on it since the fire.
I've probably answered this but I can't remember. I'm rather attached to my '68 Fender Telecaster bass I bought in 1972 for a hundred bucks. It still has a place in my house.
That's true, Gibsons tend to be neck heavy. But if I use a good strap, I can deal with their neck heaviniess.
I prefer SGs to LPs, except for a few rare cases. Still split over whether I prefer strats or SGs in general more...
That is true... they are completely different from each other. I think strats are overall more versatile though... you can get gibson tones from a strat (think Clapton) if you try and have the right affects, but the other way around... not really, unless you have a Firebird or something My problem is really not knowing which sound I prefer, haha
It can have a lot to do with what amp you are using, how well the pickups match with the pre-amp. 'Humbucker' pick-ups (double-coil) tend to have more output and fuller tone, single coil pickups tend to be on the weaker side and are noisy. But are quite twangy (have a lot of upper end), especially in a bolt-on necked guitar with a floating tremolo.
a picked up a bass many years ago, did,nt ever learn much sadly. can do the beats to pink flyod "money" and a few others. looks close to this one pic i found here.
If I had to choose one guitar it would be the maple fretboard Fender Strat with Seymour Duncan Alnico II pups. I can play my instrumental surf, blues, and country all on one guitar. A maple fretboard Tele would be a very close second. For heavy distortion nothing beats a Gretsch though a Marshall. For a Bass, the Fender P-bass is the only way to go with Seymour Duncan Quarter Pounders.
Ns nxt-4. second release so made in the czech republic. Good build quality and fun to play but pretty guttless on the pick up so need pre amp if you want killer volume. been bowing a fair bit hence the white strings
