I bought a new black Gibson SG Standard from this company, for $900, less than ten years ago. It has the small pickguard and came with the etune system but it came with a case. I'm not buying another unless they come back somewhere near reality. It's still too much for right now, at least for a standard.
i had this for about 10 years and it didnt sound great to me compared to my other (cheaper guitars) i finally sold it recently for 1500, and i got a ltd ec 256 used for 299 and i love the sound and feel better than i ever did with my gibson. The ltd 1000 is next for me. that must be a fantastic guitar.
I know what you mean. I have an LTD EC 256 and absolutely love it. Swapped out the pickups for some DiMarzio super distortions and play it thru a Marshall. Gives me that sound I've been dreaming of. My Gibson stays in its case.
Price seems pretty crazy to me but I haven't bought a guitar in awhile. Are all SG's neck heavy btw? That's why I sold mine but it was during the etune Gibson era so not sure if that extra weight threw it off (got a great deal though since all gibsons sold poorly then lol). Was nice to try one for awhile but the weight balance made it unenjoyable to sit and play.
