Here's a short vidclip of mine:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gKXaqN_Vfss (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gKXaqN_Vfss)
* Watching and hearing it now, I think I overdid the overdrive on the amp :-( *
What do I like about SGs and this one in particular?
- neck pu tone is a tad clearer than most LPs (which are usually muddy)
- i don't have a dead spot in the 24th fret area since it's not directly over a pu (as on LPs)
- higher upper fret access vs strats, teles and even LPs
- bright and biting bridge tone
- twangy and clear in-betw tone
- light and the body edges don't dig into my body
One thing I don't like is that the neck tends to tip downwards so you have to counter it by pushing the body down w/ the right arm.
What do you like about your SG and why did you want one in the first place? They seem to be sought after these days, even RJ copies.
Discuss.

The EQUATION is finally complete: Delta Slim+ Slide + SG + Heavy strings= "key to the highway" (DT :lol: )
Sir, next jam paki dala yung cherry SG--Mukhang maganda ang howl niya.
Looking forward to next jam!

with my g400 faded ...i bought it because of aesthetic reasons. :wink: i told someone to buy it for me.. actually its the epi sg vs epi dot es335 ..buti na lang sg na pili ko..next time na yung dot.. :lol:
likes :
1.) lightweight -- its so light , i can walk around the house all day while playing it.. and i'll never have back problems (Machine_head buy urself an SG :lol: )
2.) neck pup tone & in-between tone-- before i was saying its muddy , now im a believer thats its sings its all about tone control.. :D just like deltaslim said, its clearer than most LP .. also tama rin si deltaslim re in-between tone ..twang maganda for rhythm parts
3.) neck access -- best trait ng sg, compare to strat.. no distractions ..
4.) grover tuners !!
dislikes :
1.) neck -- (epi sg) almost all players from everythingsg.com have the same problem , the neck is too heavy (one piece neck) it's not balance. but as you play more often , you'll learn to find its balance position..
2.) bridge pup -- i find it too thin sounding , i use tone control to tweak it ..pero thin parin..delta , does your bridge pup sound the same ?
3.) strap lock -- you need to have a strap lock !! or a nice strap with durable ends..its scary sometimes to wank your guitar hehehe..
4.) tune-o-matic bridge -- i often play with my right hand resting on the bridge...the saddles is somewhat woobly.. its been a problem before. i had it intonated ok na.. but im thinking of upgrading next time.
5.) toggle switch -- i got my sg without hardcase. with softcase, naiipit yung switch , after a while the toggle gets loose and you'll have problems switching pups (i put styrofoam in the switch para hindi maiipit pag softcase gamit ko) . also the switch was somewhat cheap (i changed it). and i also dont like the color of the ends (orange!!)
6.) nut -- its plastic , i had problems with intonation when i first got it. na iipit yung strings..
overall .. with all the upgrades and perfect setup, my "devil - do - cry " is still my no. 1 :lol: :twisted:

Ganda pala nung iyo... faded cherry? Nice. :-)
Re bridge pu... Well one man's "thin" is another man's "bright" and "biting". These will do fine for me. The tone knob tames it fine. Pero ano ba string gauge mo -- I put in 11s on this one. Big diff.
I will prolly visit Arie and have him do a thorough setup and upgrade the nut to bone. Any other nice tweaks for SGs while I'm at it?

HD Z90s are P90s in a HB size and shape that screws onto the pu ring. No wood modifications involved. I have them in my Hondo 335 now and was just wondering about potential tone enhancements to both: more mids for the SG, clearer and chimey tone for the 335.

Post by: mikep on October 05, 2006, 06:04:31 PM
I was made to understand the Epiphone Elitist 61 re-issues are very good, even better than the build of the Gibson faded specials that I have. The pick ups are USA types and they sound superb, according to those who own them - and swear by them. I have yet to try one.
PS. It is a must to have strap locks on SGs. The position of the neck strap button is rather off, you need to secure your straps well. Schaller strap locks work well.
FWIW
Here are my SGs.
Standard SG Ebony with 498T and 490R humbuckers and Faded Cherry before nickel pup cover change.

HORNY DEVILS
If you are a player of a certain age then the chances that an SG was the first real guitar you got your hands on - and if you're 17 and in a punk band you might well be playing one, too. This sculptured, high-power classic has been driving rock, pop and blues for 40 years and more. Tony bacon has the Inside story of Gibson's slimmed-down rocker

tone? panalo! brighter and clearer and mas galit pag distorted than ur regular lp. none of that muddines many LPs seem to suffer from.
playability (in my case, for slide) is perfect. only thing i don't like is the neck tipping down. i've bought a wide leather gamusa strap para kumapit.
so far, i haven't been concerned about the headstock. hindi naman kasi kasing vintage classic gaya ng LP or Fender Strat/Tele ang SG eh. pasaway na design sya so ok lang kung pasaway ung headstock. having said that, whenever i can "upgrade" to correct specs whilst maintaining or improving tone, i'll go for it. but for now, the tone of this gtr makes it a keeper in my arsenal as a dedicated slide gtr. i've researched a long time on what would make an ideal slide guitar for me and now i've found it. i'm done w/ THAT party of my GAS. :-)

Sori for the late reply...
I use 11s sa SG, forgot the brand. Pero I don't find the tone of my SG 'bassy' to start with. If anything, 11s add a bit more bass to it than if I had used 10s or smaller gauge.

http://www.everythingsg.com/articles/mahoganyrush.htm
(http://www.everythingsg.com/articles/mahoganyrush/epiphones_choices_tn.jpg)
Tommy Iommi SG
Top of the Epiphone range is the Korean-made Tony Iommi G-400 model(£640). Of course it's black all over and unsurprisingly it's a tad neck-heavy, because this critter has 24, frets clear of the body for a two-octave range on each string. The unbound rosewood fingerboard is inlaid with pearl crosses and the Gibson USA Tony Iommi humbuckers are completely covered, with no visible pole pieces. Beneath the glossy finish we are assured everything is solid mahogany, and all the hardware is black chrome including the kidney Grover tuners. This guitar is also available in a left-handed version for a mere £10 extra.
The Iommi is no traditional SG, so it's no surprise that it sounds quite different. These pickups are voiced to sound dark and moody, so you'll need a lot of crunch on your amp. To be honest it's not particularly inspiring plugged straight into an old-school valve amp, but it comes to life if you add a distortion pedal to the equation especially if you start messing around with dropped tunings. If you like the man and you like the look, the Iommi is a fine if specialized rock guitar but it's not the obvious choice if you want that classic SG tone without paying Gibson-type money.
G-400
No, for that you should check out the regular Epiphone G-400 (£389). Besides the Epiphone-shaped scarf-jointed headstock and the unbound fingerboard, this is 'a dead ringer for the '61 Standard. Of course the finish is plastic and the fingerboard is unbound, but the color is fairly close. There's a proper set-neck joint and all the wood is mahogany, but you'll have to make do with generic Alnico V Far Eastern humbuckers and chrome-plated hardware, not nickel.
The neck has that fat, vintage feel and the setup and intonation can't be faulted, though the frets have been left a little rough on top. Acoustically this guitar shows a lot of promise but the pickups aren't quite up to American-made Gibson quality. Against the Gibson Standard, playing the G-400 sounds as if a blanket has been thrown over the amp: detuned riffs sound a little mushy and a lack of bite and attack stops this guitar coming to life. It's more than acceptable for the money, especially when you're playing with overdrive, but the G-400 can't match the range of tones, the precision or the dynamics of its American cousins.
G-310
As you move further down the Epiphone line some of the features we associate with SGs start to disappear and production shifts from Korea to China. The G-310 (£275), for instance, only costs around £100 less than the G-400 but the trademark set neck is changed to a bolt‑on with a Fender-style chrome plate. The neck is still mahogany but the body is a very un-Gibson-like alder, and it's far less contoured than the real thing. Fortunately some decent cast tuners and hardware save the G-310 from too closely resembling the 1970s Gibson copies that some of us traded our first decent guitars for. No info is available on the pickups: the fact that they are open-coil humbuckers is all that we know.
So does this guitar really qualify as an SG? We'll leave that one to the purists because the G-310 turns out to be a bit of a surprise package. The bolt-on neck and the reduced-mass headstock make this a very resonant and lively guitar; the tonal vagueness of the G-400 is gone and we're back to that gnarly, belligerent rock attitude with lots of pinched harmonics and grit. Okay, it's not exactly pretty, but the G-310 even handles clean stuff extremely well, despite the power of its steaming hot humbuckers.
SG Special
True to form, lurking at the bottom of the line is Epiphone's entry-level SG the Special (£189) with a maple neck and laminated alder/maple body. This really is on the basic side, with an unforgivably cheap set of tuners. There's no scratch plate and, despite the twin humbuckers, there are only two controls, master volume and tone, both with a nice silver-topped vintage look.
However, it sounds very different. Where the G-310 sounds much like a bona-fide SG, with that characteristic tonal thickness, the Special is a far more ragged performer that doesn't really sound anything like an SG. The good news, though, is that it's exciting and fun in a garage-y sort of way, and it's actually a very playable guitar.
Hope this enlightens those thinking of getting Epiphone SGs. :)

Sori for the late reply...
I use 11s sa SG, forgot the brand. Pero I don't find the tone of my SG 'bassy' to start with. If anything, 11s add a bit more bass to it than if I had used 10s or smaller gauge.
just bought a snarling dogs strings.. was thinking of getting a cheaper strings for my sg. i've been using EB for months now. this strings brought new life to my sg and my pup's. pero ang mahal kasi.
after installing the strings, yun hindi ko nanaman nagustuhan ang tunog. i can really hear and feel the difference between strings i tried. kaya important din talaga yung strings..
sadly mukhang balik na ko sa EB .. hehehe sad kasi mahal.. :-(
pero ganda naman tunog sg ko.. yehey!! :-D

I just remembered, D'Addario yung akin. Sigurado pang walang kalawang dahil sa sealed plastic packaging. Ewan ko ba bakit sobrang mahal ng EB. Kaya di ako bumibili nyan e.
But I gotta agree. Laking effect ng strings, especially the gauge. Not just on the tonal eq balance (whether bright, middy, bassy, etc) per se but on creating the right amount of tension to make slide playing more 'toneful'. Proven ko at ng iba ito so I won't qualify with an IMHO. ;-)

hmm does anyone have comments for the samick sg? anyone ever try one?
Havent actually tried one, but the body shape is very different, its similar though, but it does not have the same contour, but it looks nice though. if you want the look of a Gibson SG, go for an epi g400.
Here's a pic of a samick SG

Dantuts, have you tried Alice strings? Ive been using Alice gauge 10s for several months now, and I'm really happy with them, they dont rust at all, and a pack lasts me more than a month sometimes 2 months before I break a single string... and I gig 3 times a week sa lagay na yun.. punk pa yung tugtugan :D they are really heavy duty, plus the fact that a pack is only 80 pesos. The lower (E,A,D) don't sound as bright though if played unamplified, but its sounds OK when youve got your guitar plugged in. Why dont you give it a try.

alice strings are too hard to bend!
i didn't know that alice strings have a bad rep around here but i did try them (still have them on one gtr). weird sya i-bend, parang di intuitive (doesn't behave/sound like you expect it to behave/sound). at parang may weird, unbalanced frequencies in general. i still have a couple of packs and should slap them on my other guitars just to confirm my earlier experience.

about EB, diba madali mabali ang ernie ball? :?
Post by: jpadua on October 31, 2006, 02:42:25 PM
yay for sgs :D the only thing that i wish epis had is the neck binding hehe plus i prefer the big pickguard instead of the small 'bat wing' hehe, but nontheless epis are great! :D
about EB, diba madali mabali ang ernie ball? :?
I vowed never to use EBs again... :D all bad experiences... First pack I bought ever years ago... upon stringing the high E string, it snapped! I changed to D'Addarios for a while... I decided to try again, same thing snapped the E string... years passed again, when I needed strings asap and no D'addarios in the store so, I said what the heck, I'll get those slinky's maybe I got a bad batch before.. and guess what... I snapped the E string while tuning... Damn... I dont want to waste my money anymore.. sorry to those EB lovers but Ive got stung more than once hehehe.
I'm an alice guy now.. hehehe
Sorry OT!!! back to topic
The only epi with the full pick guard is the G-310. Although a totally different design (lowered stop tailpiece, fretboard deeper into body, Bolt on) to the traditional SG, Its got the closest sound to a bonafide SG (according the review on everythingsg.com). Looks nice too plus it's cheap. Musician's friend has got it on sale for $200! Bought one had it sent to a friend in the US who is coming home this december... i'm all giddy!
This is what I bought... can't wait!

yung G400 Vintage or G400 Faded na Model naka bindings na..
naka bone nut na yung sa akin pina gawa ko kay arie .. ayos !!!, no more tuning problems..... naka grover tuners.. yung mga kluson tuners ng epiphone sg's hindi maganda.. . actually yun n nga lng kulang ko kluson tuners..vintage na vintage na.. hehehe
but i like what i have.. :-D
regarding pick ups..
i suggest mag try ka muna ng iba-iba't strings at gauges, pick up height, tone tweak.. kasi maraming factors .. lahat ito may affect sa tone ng guitar..

pics coming up soon. bago ang puti na S-100 so hindi ko pa nakuha ang pic since wala akong digi cam:) pero i posted a pic of my ESP Viper somewhere here along with my Ganesa since someone asked for it. Both are very plain looking, nothing fancy but the Viper is my main workhorse guitar and it rarely if ever goes out of tune even with heavy heavy picking and bending. The thing has been out sa tour in the past, and it is as strong as they come for ESPs. Bilib talaga ako sa mga yun.

Ok kung Gibson if it's actually better and just as cheap (which makes it nigh impossible); otherwise, I swear by the Epi. Tokai or Greco would be nice too instead of Gibson.

Malayo tunog ng LP sa SG.
Malutong tumunog ang SG, mas may bite sya kesa LP. LP naman mas makapal tumunog. Unplugged, maganda tumunog ang SG. Bright sounding ang SG kaysa LP.
Pero kung heavy tugtugan sa LP ako. hehehe! (sabay tago!) :-D

Hehe.
It sounds great. I've had several epi and gibson SG's over the years and the tone and playability are comparable. RJ's are good guitars.
Yep - it's solid body.

SG users -- How would you describe the tone of your SG (especially the Epi ones)? Mine has stock pus and I like them better as is than when I tried to "upgrade" them. I think Epi put really good Gibson-spec pus in these gtrs.

hmm...yung gibson sg standard naka 490R - 498T ...meron sa RJ glorietta , Perfect Pitch Rob place.
mga price range nya nsa 4k..
meron din seymour duncan and dimarzio's.. sa SD malimit kong makita sa SG ay yung SD 59 / SD jazz (neck) --- SD JB (bridge) or antiquities
sa dimarzio may nakita narin akong naka PAF pro (neck) / Air Norton (bridge) tska yung PAF Classics (choice ko)
pero yung mga stock dito sa manila hindi sila naka chrome covers mostly open coils, tapos black ang kulay.

tska invest on a good kluson tuners.. mag order ka na lang kung kakayanin. or contact mahineman ..baka kaya nyang mag pa order for you sa allparts (distributor din sila e)

para sa mga naka-Epi SG w/ stock pus, don't bother "upgrading" to Gibson 490R and 498Ts because they sound a lot like the stock Epi pus. My hunch is that these Epi pus were really copies of the Gibson 490/498s, if they aren't actually the same (they have the same ohms/resistance, same magnet types, and same company din eh). the vids i posted w/ my Epi SG are w the stock pus and give you an idea of the tone of the Gibby pus too.
but if you don't have a stock Epi SG, the Gibsons are a good option.

actually tama ka delta. pati sa sg forum ganun din ang sinasabi. parang its just an illusion , feeling mo naka gibson ka (kung epi sg owner ka) eventually mag papalit karin :-D
yung Gibson 57 Classics is also a good choice.. a bit pricey though

yup. ang slight difference lang siguro is mas may konting mids yung Gibson and mas tight yung bass ng Epis. baka dahil na yun sa pag degauss nung older Gibson pus that i had. very slight diff tho.

You should tell us what your gtr and amp settings. My first impression is medyo muddy yung sound, but can't tell exactly why. You need to cut some mids and increase the highs.

with my g400 faded ...i bought it because of aesthetic reasons. :wink: i told someone to buy it for me.. actually its the epi sg vs epi dot es335 ..buti na lang sg na pili ko..next time na yung dot.. :lol:
As of today, I've picked up this very same model. I got to the guitar store about an hour before closing time. I asked the attendant if I could try the guitar out in their back-room. I decided on running the thing through it's paces through a 30-watt transistor amp...the cheapest one at that. My reason behind it is that if I could coax a good tone out of it from a cheap amp, I know that with a little bit of tweaking, I can get a better tone out of a more expensive amp (perhaps like the B-52 AT-112 I've been keeping my eye on at Guitar Center). I ended up doing lead runs and some Mick Ronson rhythms on it before finally picking it up. I'm very partial to really bright tones right now and it looks like this Faded G-400 is just the right thing to get. I plan on having it adjusted by a luthier to get it ready for heavier strings (thinking 11's or 12's!!!) and it's tuning to either C or C#.
I'm glad I had a pair of clip-loks hanging about in my dresser. I've now fitted the bad boy with sky-blue colored ones.
I'm going to like this when it becomes my main riff machine!

Thanks! I guess time will tell when those switches go to pot (so to speak), since I only got it a few hours ago :wink:
For Epis, either MIK or MIC, the first parts that must be replaced, in my experience as owner of 5 different Epi models well as the experience of Epiforum members are 1) pup switch; 2) volume and tone pots. These parts are available at Audiophile. Get the Switchcraft ones or the AllParts switches. Both are good with the Switchcraft being better. For pots, AllParts are okay. 500k, either linear or audio taper, I believe linear for tone and audio taper for volume.
FWIW
Thanks for the advice, MP. I've always looked up to your sage-like wisdom since the old philmusic mailing list back in the 90's. I may have to get those things looked at by the luthier when I get my free set-up done.

This used to be neck heavy but due to the added weight of the Bigsby, it stays perfectly balanced when playing while standing :-D
thanks to ganjie for the uber nice bigsby :-D

The brand is MacSmith, Hindi sya exact replica yung measurements medyo altered ata, I guess para di sila idemanda ng gibson heheh. But it looks pretty close. Price is under 10K I think.

I sold the gtr last night to the lead guitarist of a famous local band. So, again, mas sumikat pa ang gtr ko kaysa sa akin... Makikita ko na lang siya sa TV. :-(

Finally My G-310 has arrived!!! just looking for pickup covers now... anyone with a bridge spaced pickup cover?

WOAH!! I was looking for this model at hongkong tomlee, unfortunately it was out of stock, the omly one left there was an Emily the dtrange(limited) Epi g310, i didnt wanna go home
w/out a guitar so i just bought that one(last peice) got eral good tone and some killer looking
graphics.hehe
sir if ever you have plans on selling this one on the fiture, may i be the 1st one on the waiting list!!hehe.. white sgs!! rock on!!hehe

pasali.. pangulit lang.. here's mine.. Epiphone g310(emil the strange limited)
(http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a306/cipher14/EpiphoneEmilyEdition.jpg)
same specs don with Epi g310, the graphics are just added... and yeah the volume knobs with swirl graphics..cool!.. The sound is pretty descent, ill be stickin on the stock pups for this.And yeah the necks pretty heavy for the body.
Cool Emily the Strange!!! yeah that G-310 has really cool graphics, yeah stick with the stock pups, actually if you plan to change them out, just change the neck, pup. The bridge pickup is really hot! First I was planning to change out all the pups, but after using this guitar for a few months I fell in love with the sound of the bridge pup, I'm sticking with it. Pass it through an overdrive or distortion even at low gain settings, you get a very classic rock sound, bigat, the sound closely resembles a real SG more than a G400 (according to reviews of the G-310 www.everythingsg.com)
Weird thing about that bridge open coil pup, it doesnt have standard pole spacing, I bought 4 pickup covers already and non of them fit, all with standard bridge spacing. I finally ordered chrome covers without holes, I'm gonna have them custom fitted by Jun Castro with wax potting. The pickup sounds so hot, it squeals a bit sometimes, so the wax potting would tame it a little bit. I plan to change out the neck pup with a SD SPH90 (P90 in humbucker size) to get a hot single coil sound from the bridge.
Another reason why the pickup sounds beefier than G400s, the actual position of the bridge pup is further from the bridge than standard SG copies.
Another thing, the stock tuners sometimes slip, so if youve got the extra cash to fork out, get some grovers or gotohs. I've replaced mine with sperzel locking tuners with a drop-d switch.
oooh one more thing, string tension is really great especially when you drop-d, unlike my other guitars which Ive used with drop d tuning, the low e string feels too loose. The g-310 is perfect with .10s na snarling dogs.
The neck is really fast, you can really shread on that thing!
Best of all is the price, got mine for $200 on amazon!
My favorite guitar...(i'm in love with it)

sperzel locking tuners with a drop-d switch.<--where did you bought this?this one is great
for hassle free tunig from drop D to standard. Oh i guess 1 more reason why the strings are not loose even if tuned drop D because of the tilted head, gives more tension.
Do you use straplocks? im a bit hesitant on replacing the screws on the neckplate, it might affect the alignment of the bolt on neck. does it?
Im pretty happy with the pups,I have no plans on changing them yet since i only play rhythm.
thanks for the comments sir!

I got the sperzels over the web, sa www.gtrheaven.com, they dont deliver to the ph so I had them deliver it to my friend in the state who brought it home for me. you can get them also at www.guitarpartsresource.com kaso they sell the drop-d switch separately so mas mahal lumalabas, cool thing about guitarpartsresource.com they ship to the philippines for only $6 for items under $100. This is where I buy all my accessories na wala dito sa pinas, pup covers, knobs, switches, pickguards, etc. Available ang grover and gotoh sa guitarpartsresource.com the price is reasonable, around $37 +$6 shipping = $45 x P46 = P2,007 more or less depende na yan sa exchange rate, they take paypal and creditcard. Ok sila safe, dami ko na nabili sa kanila, usually takes 2weeks for items to get to the post office. post office wont charge you tax for small accessories.
Di pwede lagyan standard straplocks dahil yung strap button is custom fit to the back plate screw. Standard strap buttons wont fit, The only thing that would work is a planet waves locking strap or dimarzio cliploks which I use now with this guitar.

I like the SGs because they are light and very playable. I have a Gibson faded cherry Special that I have changed the pups to a nickel covered 490T and 490R, which I prefer, look wise. I use 10s D'Addario XLs on both my SGs. I seem to like the thicker neck of the SGs. Only problem is they are neck heavy. Solution is to use thicker straps. Tone-wise, with the original pick ups, they seem to be a bit darker, but have seemingly sweet highs. They are great guitars.
I was made to understand the Epiphone Elitist 61 re-issues are very good, even better than the build of the Gibson faded specials that I have. The pick ups are USA types and they sound superb, according to those who own them - and swear by them. I have yet to try one.
PS. It is a must to have strap locks on SGs. The position of the neck strap button is rather off, you need to secure your straps well. Schaller strap locks work well.
FWIW
Here are my SGs.
Standard SG Ebony with 498T and 490R humbuckers and Faded Cherry before nickel pup cover change.

ive treid some newer sgs, magaan din naman... some are even lighter than the 69 and 74... but those new sgs dont sound as woody, gritty... :-)
I'm glad my Greco SG copy's really woody. Just needs a pair of low output, clear/trasparent PUs.
plus, as suggested by my BB Deltaslim...new saddles.

blues bro, i ordered a pair of GFS hbs for my Orville by Gibson SG para magawa ko ung coil-split wiring. in case i like em, sa iyo ko ipasa ung stock pus ng SG. US pus un, kc "Orville by Gibson" nga eh (and verified by Arie). pati nga raw trussrod US eh! balitaan kita.

Question 1: Anu po mga recommended na pickups sa bridge at neck? Balak ko sanang gawin 2 magkaibang pickups para sa neck at bridge. Watcha think?
Question 2: Anung straplock ang recommended nyo para sa SG? Im planning to but one kasi. Ok na ba yung Dunlop straplocks?
Thanks!

I just want to post some new pics of my SG!
Its an Epi YEC G400 Limited Edition Epiphone Custom Shop.
Neck heavy nga sya, but I think masasanay din ako eventually.
Made some minor cosmetic tweaks to make it look closer to the original.
Changed the pup selector switch to cream. Changed the pick up ring screws to black.

chypre,
oonga actually, ginaya ko yung itsura ng 61 laquer heheh, kulang nalang neck binding heheh... pero sa picture lang sya medyo mukhang laquer, mas maputi sya sa actual. Arctic White yung kulay.
Yung g310 ko may nag offer kasi saakin, di ako maka tanggihan ang presyo... kahit mabigat sa kalooban ko binenta ko... at least na palitan ko ng setneck na SG :)
Pare champion talaga! ganda tunong ng pups! 2 alnico V classic na Epi, sobrang ganda ng tone compared sa G310. yung combination ng bridge and neck pup ganda ng tunog. I think lahat ng pup positions talagang magagamit ko ngayon. sa G310 bridge lang ginagamit ko.
Post by: chypre on November 21, 2007, 04:04:38 PM
champion talaga, asteg yung pups ah, alnico V classic. Onga, binding at head na lang pagkakaiba niyan sa 61 lacquer. Magkano at san niyo po nakuha yan sir? inggit ako, sana magkaron din ako niyan sa pasko.hehe
Nakuha na pala g310 niyo, sayang.. ako sana papatus dun eh.
congrats!!! ganda niyan.. as in!!haha :mrgreen:

SG is my first electric guitar..... i hated the weight balance (neck vs body), i hated the neck, and the huge shape of it's butt!
SOLD! after 1 month :lol: ...immediately replaced by an RG470! :mrgreen:
oonga ganun talaga mga SG neck heavy. kasi yung body ng SG manipis and light, so the neck + the tuning machines make it neck heavy. Its also the design of the neck, since the 22nd fret is on the top of the body, which makes the neck profile much longer.
Anyways swerte rin nakabili ng SG mo :D

i know this is not the most proper or appropriate place to be asking such question but i'm in dire need for an sg! i would gracefully trade this fender strat for an epiphone sg: http://danj0.multiply.com/photos/album/27/Youghps_guitar (http://danj0.multiply.com/photos/album/27/Youghps_guitar)

hello sg people. :-) i've been a strat uses for the longest time. but after having a derek trucks overdose last night, i have become a convert. his guitar's tone is just...perfect.

hehe oo man, mukhang ganun na nga. ang sarap ng sg eh. kahit relatively malaki yung tunog niya, may underlying twang pa rin. tsaka ang galing kasi ni derek trucks eh. baka mahawa ako pag gumamit din ako ng sg. hehe :-D

matanong ko lang (para di na ako mag-research ng matagal sa google hehehe), ano ba ang fingerboard radius ng Gibson SG Special? I've read that Gibson LPs mostly have compound radii. So i was wondering what the SG's meausurements are, their current line at least. :-)

hindi stock yung pickups ko eh...nabili ko sha na naka emg 81 & emg 85 na.
i'll replace them soon with original gibson pickups.
what i like 'bout this sg is very light sha and madali tipahin. ok lang yung neck nya pero hindi sha ganun kanipis pero ok pa din sa akin.
right now, i use ernie ball 9's dito and grabe ang smooth i-play. pero i will try 10's dito next time i'll change my set of strings.
very classic ang itsura ng sg. sarap mag jam ng black sabbath songs! :-D
this sg is a keeper na...pero pag may makukuha akong gibson sg standard saka ko siguro bebenta to. :-D

Locally-made SG, upgraded with a tune-o-matic bridge, bone nut, and a new pickguard, plus an adjustment to a few fret placements and the fretwires themselves.
Pickups are a DiMarzio neck, SD Trembucker for the middle, and a generic RJ humbucker.
Modifications done over a period of 2 years using the services of Roadtone's Jun Castro.

It took me a while to decide to do this, but since, epiphone did release a G400 with a full pickguard I gave it a go, knowing that this will be a permanent change in my G400.
Masakit at first to actually make holes on the body! but after I installed the pickguard it was well worth it! mas mabangis tignan hehehe...
If you didnt know, Gibson SG full pickguards do not fit G400... they just dont line up properly (both the modern and vintage styles) at lalabas yung ibang daitng screw holes of the small pickguard.
I happened to have a Gibson SG Standard replacement pickguard, I scanned it, trimmed the bottom to accommodate the G400 pickup selector, extended the right side of the pickguard a few mm so as to cover the old screw holes and had the pickguard made. The old screw holes are all hidden underneath the new pickguard! and also I designed the bridge holes to be bigger so theres no need to pull out the bridge posts (sa Gibson SG kasi the pickguard sits under the bridge posts), talagang designed to just drop in to the G400 without any hassles.
Here are some pix.

My thoughts on SG? Theres only one- the worst neck of all.
depende lng din siguro, yung kamay ko kasi pambata e hehe...for me it works well, mas madali maabot ung mga higher frets at yung mga stretched out na chords mas madali gawin sa sg lalu na pag nakatayo...ang negative lang is the neckdive...

NECK DIVE hindi neckdrive. kasi ang strap button ng karamihan ng SG e nasa joint ng neck and body. so pag naka sabit sa shoulders mo ang sg tapos binitawan mo bumabagsak yung neck.
ang solusyon dun either you get a wide strap (bass guitar strap size) or ilipat mo yung strap button sa may upper horn ng sg, katulad ng signature SG ni Tony Iommi ..

Haha. Yung binili ko yung SG ko, sabi nung tindero, "Ah, yung batman guitar sir?"
About the neck, in time naman siguro, masasanay ka. Di naman sya nakaka-impede sa playing mo eh. When playing the guitar, hawak mo ang neck diba? Di mo mapapansin yung neckdive nya, yun nga lang, pag binitawan mo, saka lang sya bababa. No need to change the neck dude.

yes , IMHO no need to change the neck. pero kung talagang hindi mo ma take ang neck dive, ilipat mo yung strap button. check mo guitar ni tony iommi as reference. nasa horn yung strap button.

Pag nilipat mo yung strap button ng SG sa upper horn, may neckdive parin, but it's lessened noticably.

basta find your guitar's balance. the upper horn position sometimes will do , slung it with a wide strap then your good to go.

I do not understand what you mean!! walang arm? anyway, yeah, may spring for the arm's downward (push) tension, and the strings provide its upward (pull) tension :-D
As for the others, yeah, neck--heavy ang SG, pero na-offset ng Bigsby. hehe :-D

again, that is the 'characteristic' of an SG, the neckdive. tama si stompmoko, get a good strap, let say a strap with leather as an inner layer, para kumapit sa body mo ung strap. check Rico Blanco's strap..

upgraded some parts like the nut and pickups, scalarized it.
Changed string gauges from .10 to .11
Ung Sound niya.... How do I describe it.... It drives the amps so hard you can hear it cracking!!! :)
di ko pa siya natry sa 4x12 with tube amp.... cguro dun lalabas ung tunay niyang lakas. :)

Thanks for the offer. I'm always interested in guitars, but the problem I have is I can't get to playing the ones I have. I'm already baby sitting 6. Plus I think my wife would kill me if I bought another one.

before going for upgrades that you might otherwise not need, check the following:
-stretch your strings after changing them and before gigging to ensure they have adequate "give."
-check your string winding method, use the string locking method to wind your strings under the string post so the actual windings lock the string down.
-check your nut and bridge notch slots. although most big guitar companies have good QC, a few tend to leave the factory needed better filling of the slots. see your luthier for a check on this because uneven slots can cause tuning problems since the strings snag on burrs located within the groove.
-if all else has been done, check the tuners themselves - quality tuners should have a firm feel when you turn them and not have gaps which can cause strings to slip.

In addition, always tune UP. Pag lumampas ka sa tamang note, tune down muna then up again.

Guys, question... who owns here a mac smith copy of an sg and an rj sg copy? between the two copies, which of them would you choose? when i back read this thread, i found out that mac smith altered some measurements with the guitar for them not to be sued by Gibson and i also saw some rj sgs here that are quite promising. all i knew about these guitars is just mac smiths are made in indonesia and rj are manufactured in korea. i just can't decide which copies would i get... thanks in advance for those sg lovers out there!
hey xinxie, i think RJ sgs are china made. im not sure though but the ones that i saw were MIC. between the two, i think its a matter of trying it out and playing. choose which is the best in terms of playability (feel) and sound. check the hardwares too.
you might want to check out used SG's like greco, burny, tokai.. their low end models are priced around php8k-10k (mint/used). which is way better than mac smith and RJ.

i don't think it's neckthrough bro.. rather, it's a set-neck.. google it for the difference and you'll know what i mean.. :-)
bodywood is also kinda conflicting.. yung nasa site, sabi mahogany daw.. pero nasa specs niya on the same page, alder.. hehe..

I don't have any friends with Gibson or Epi SG's and there aren't any guitar shops here that carry Gibby's or Epi's so i don't have any access to try any SG's.. But I want one!!!

if we are talking about 2000-2003 philmusic era, where prices were really cheap haha, then i would agree with dantuts. i used to own the greco sg owned by toybits and was able to sell it for 13k in 03, with gator hardcase and dry Z pups hehe...
but still the MIJ lowend models could be priced as mentioned elsewhere, but not in philmusic where everyone jumps on the bandwagon to profit and stuff. hell, pier used to sell these MIJ even hi-ends at 8-10k during those times...
anyhow, once in a while, some guitars just pop out at good prices where you can never say no..here's my burny sg custom btw:

medyo chunky ang neck ng SG. more like D shape to me. if you're used to playing with thin neck profile. maninibago ka for sure. i think its more close to a LP actually imho.

it's actually a tricky question if you'd ask me.
i could say it ranges from slim-taper to mid chunky to bat size. in a gibson's POV, they are the same as their LP counterparts in terms of year of manufacture. some have thinner necks or commonly referred to as 60's slim-taper and chunky bat size ones as '59 rounded. the new models i believe (maybe late 90's-2000 to present) do have 59 rounded, unless otherwise stated as 60's neck. so there could be a slim or chunky that would definitely depend on the guitar itself.
here's a few GIBSON SG's i tried:
SG standard (2000) - 59 rounded
SG special (2006) - 59 rounded
SG 70's, i am not sure what model, but has the smaller block inlays - slim taper
as for MIJ's my experience so far with those i've owned:
GRECO - slim-taper
BURNY CUSTOM, the one on the photo above has a wider nut width, as per standard even on LP's, it think 42mm is the normal one, but this burny custom has 43 or so, it's really wide compared to my other guitars, even wider than the burny standard my friend used to own (yeah, its slimtaper that sg standard). well neck is in a mid of chunky and slim
ORVILLE SG- slim taper
a SG MIK EPIPHONE i owned before had a slimmer neck, and smaller nut width, i think it's not even close to 42mm. i have no idea about the latter MIC made.
as for others, i owned an RJ SG before and i think its in the middle of chunky and slim. havananas has one,maybe he can share a bit. also samick sg has a slimmer neck.
well, my advise, first hand feel and test on the guitar you will buy is the best way to determine what you would like. if you're much of a fender guy (which i am not..) i guess you could tailor fit the feel based on your other guitars upon testing. unless you would be fine with different types of neck profile, then that all cool! i personally like a slim one, again, it all boils down to preferences SG's have always been part of my arsenal, there's something in them that screams rock and roll!
obtw, SG's are known to have heavy necks, that's why neck dive is pretty common, it's no-brainer since its a mahogany as compared to the slim feature/cut of the body.
goodluck on your sg hunting! be a member soon!

mga sirs, quick question lang, ang neck na walang binding, posible ba lagyan ng binding pa? I searched sa google, puro american forums and sites, lagi nilang sinasabing pwede but not worth it, bili nalang daw ng gibson, di ko naman afford yun..T_T tanong ko po sana sainyong mga pinoy kung posible ba at kung worth it kaya? I have a small fry g400 nga pala(If that's any help)..:(
just my opinion.. it wil be quite costly kun mgapapalagayka ng binding.. syempre kailangan itrim or iroute ng konte yung buong magkabilang gilid ng fretboard to make way for the binding.. not just that, sagad pa yung fret wires mo.. so baka kailangan pang either ifile down yung gilid ng frets para magkasya yung binding or tanggalin lahat ng frets tapos lagyan ng binding tapos irefret with shorter frets..
yun ang naiisip kong mangyayari.. a refret alone costs around 2-4k na, depende sa gagawa..

well, i can consider a 5k worth of multi or eq+tuner plus the remaining monetary amount based on the trade value. madali lang naman akong kausap e hehe
Never tried a custom SG.... Sir is it heavier than the standard and reissues?
our concept of custom being heavier than standards is quite true to LP, but not always. to sg, i would say, minute only. i may be wrong so feel free to correct me guys. the burny sg custom is lighter compared to the gibson sg on the pics. could be a lot of factors to consider. but all factors equal--wood, brand, hardware, etc, i think it would only be a slight difference on the weight, or could be none at all. now if its the gibson sg custom heavier than the gibson sg standard? well, it would be better if i could have a first hand comparison to say the least.
it's no brainer tho that the customs have block inlays and headstock and neck bindings and the standards have the trapezoid and neck bindings only. also it would be wise to say that customs are of pricier models than the standards. again with the following factors----> same brand, product line of same era, year and what-nots.

our concept of custom being heavier than standards is quite true to LP, but not always. to sg, i would say, minute only. i may be wrong so feel free to correct me guys. the burny sg custom is lighter compared to the gibson sg on the pics. could be a lot of factors to consider. but all factors equal--wood, brand, hardware, etc, i think it would only be a slight difference on the weight, or could be none at all. now if its the gibson sg custom heavier than the gibson sg standard? well, it would be better if i could have a first hand comparison to say the least.
it's no brainer tho that the customs have block inlays and headstock and neck bindings and the standards have the trapezoid and neck bindings only. also it would be wise to say that customs are of pricier models than the standards. again with the following factors----> same brand, product line of same era, year and what-nots.
Thanks for your reply. Really appreciated it!
Maybe I'm in the concept of LP's as you mentioned above.
Definitely your Burny Custom is a beauty and I know that will not last long in the adds. :-o

your burny lp custom might need it's shadow, a black burny sg lolz!!! talk about ebony and ivory!
but yeah, weight is not that significant, but that's me. only thing that's good about is it's neck heavy, same as gibby's. i used to have other sg brands but they don't do the neck dive. c'mon where's the sg mojo in that haha!!! some hate it, but i think it's cool!

I like it Ebony and Ivory!
I know how good a Japanese Burny is, but I already have 2 SG's.
Haven't felt the neck dive on both maybe because of the Kluson green tuning pegs.
What I love about the SG's is the strap button placement under the neck body joint. For me this gives the character of the guitar and feel of difference to the others... maybe just like the ES family. :-D

yeah, the strap placement is one of a kind, i get to hold the guitar better than the normal. the tuners could also be a factor, put some sperzel locking and you'll dive in no time. also the strap you're using can be a factor at times. depends on the materials it's made from or the size (width) as they also contribute to the dive, how low you strap the guitar and how the beer belly will hold onto it helps hahaha!

Sure thing :-)
I just got my SG a while ago, the newly installed chrome pickups suits best with a full face tuxedo (3 ply, black/white/black) pickguard :roll:
Regarding your SG, a full face flat black pickguard is likely to suit yours :-)

My simple solution? Buy a strap that sticks to your body/clothes. Don't buy those w/ smooth surface (eg, leatherette). Better pa yung magaspang na side ng leather. I also naturally push down the body w/ my picking forearm, thus helping keep the neck up.

Post by: pie-key on July 26, 2010, 05:40:48 PM
Not sure if I've mentioned this before but it's a misconception that SG necks are heavy, thus the neck dive syndrome. I think SG necks are just as heavy as LP necks, if not lighter, but their body is lighter and the fulcrum is further towards the body, thus the natural tendency for the neck to succumb to gravity.

OT: Guys, you might know someone who sells Black Top Hat knobs with Silver inserts on top, please pm me. I've posted a thread about this at the guitar accessories section and I guess no one has one. Just trying my luck if someone has one here for my sg copy. Thanks!
Meron sa Lyric.

wala ho kasi akong mahanap na info tungkol sa greco na ito. :D
mga bagay na gusto ko po sana malaman:
1. gumawa po ba ang greco ng bolt-on na SG noong early 80's?
2. maapektuhan po ba yung sustain ng gitara, it being bolt on vs setneck?
3. may info po kaya re: sa spec nire? tinanong ko na po iyung seller, di raw alam, pamana lang raw sa kanya. :D
maraming salamat po at pasensiya na sa abala.

Ako nalang bibili kung ayaw mo.
1.Madaming Bolt-ons ang Greco in fact yung first guitars nila eh bolt on lahat.
2.Yun ang pinakamain difference ng setnecks and bolt-ons sa sustain nagkakatalo, pero depende din sa gawa
3. try mo magsearch ng catalogues then look for a model similar to yours.
BTW pwede pa pm ng number in case ayaw mo bilhin yan? :-D

naghanap na po ako catalogue ng greco online, unfortunately wala po ako mahanap na kagaya niya. :cry:
Based po ako sa SG, nakita ko lang sa isang local music forum itong gitara na ire. If you're still interested po, I can gladly pass you the owner's number. :D
salamat po ulit.

sorry for the confusion sirs, but i was thinking of having one made for my g400 because the gibson and the g310 pickguard does not fit the g400 hardware placement and whatnots directly. for a start i have to move the pickups and the tom and then more adjustments. that's why i'm looking for a luthier with that much pickguard material... :wink:

same pala tayo bro, first time ko nakita ang SG was when I watched school of rock and parang na-love at first sight ako. :lol: gusto ko talaga magkaSG since nung time na yun. I know din na SGs can handle my playing style which is aggressive, chug-chugan talaga modern metal or metalcore that's why it's on one of the top of my list.

OT: Zack's in no way an endorser of Fender, he used a Gibson Thunderbird on some songs in Straight to DVD. Alex played a Strat in their early (blink-182 cover) days.
not OT: (from everythingsg.com) The SG X began as the SG All American 1. It was introduced as the All American 1 in 1995 and was renamed the SG-X in 1998, but the specs did not change, only the name.
even more not OT: awesome SG palmuteboi! been wondering what a maple freboard + humbucker sound like... in an SG kind of way.

Guys question: Gibson SG Standard or '61 reissue? What do you prefer and why?
I used to not like SG, but when I tried a couple of SGs a few months ago, I got hooked! Sarap tugtugin... and the looks is growing on me. That's my next GAS.

na try ko na yan before. Medyo iba yung switching nya. What I remember is yung neck and bridge, same switching. Tapos one of the tone knobs is volume for the middle pickup. So bale pwede mo isali yung middle pickup at any position through the volume knob. That's what I remember, I maybe wrong though. Pero for me, just use bridge humbucker for that biting crunch :-D

Ano po pros and cons ng bawat isa? TIA
Yung SG PRO, available, yung regular SG, discontinued na :-D Check out the out of production models in the Epi website.
http://www.epiphone.com/Products/Out-of-Production.aspx
Pero to summarize, here are the differences:
- PRO model has Wilkinson Vintage tuners vs. Grovers on a regular G400
- PRO model has a different pickup with coil-tap for single-coil (strat/tele-like) sound
More details here:
https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.276019922512847.63294.225644267550413&type=3
The link above is comparison between G400, G400 PRO, and Ltd. Ed. 1966 G400. You'll see the cosmetic differences in the pictures.
Since G400 is discountinued, then go for G400 PRO. There are still remaining G400s floating around, so even though it is out of production, it can be available. Same with Ltd. Ed. 1966 G400 - discontinued as well and has been replaced by Ltd. Ed. 1966 G400 PRO.

Haha, yeah contemplating. Super nakaka gas ang sale ng crescendo!
Techbp - depends sa music mo. For all around pickups, you can't go wrong with PAF-based pickups like gibson 57s, dimarzio 36th PAF or seymour duncan 59s.

I'm not an SG expert (still finding the right time to buy a Gibson SG for myself), but I would describe it as Les Paul tone with a strat bite. Note sure if this is how the SG experts would describe it, but at least that's my experience. I find the les paul too smooth.

I'm not an SG expert (still finding the right time to buy a Gibson SG for myself), but I would describe it as Les Paul tone with a strat bite. Note sure if this is how the SG experts would describe it, but at least that's my experience. I find the les paul too smooth. I'm a strat guy, so I really love the SG becuase it gives me some of that strat scream with a smoother tone.Thank you sir

Another question po ulit: With the 3 pickups you mentioned earlier, ano yung pickup dun na "with strat scream with a smoother tone" ?
thank you

Less than 50k sa Black Friday Sale ng Crescendo yung Gibson SG Standard Limited. Only difference with an SG Standard is the baked maple fretboard. I think I want one but the fretboard isbmaking me think twice.
To buy or not? What do you guys think? :-D
Yan din ang gas ko! Natural burst finish. What's the deal with baked maple fretboard?

and it looks like the 61ri neck profile has replaced the beefier rounded profile of the old batwing SG standard. so its like they've taken the 61ri, gave it the old standard's smaller headstock and called it a the new standard. nice.
wish they'd kept the thicker standard neck though. the 60s slim profile neck, which feels nice on an LP, feels flimsy on an SG.

By the way, just saw your les pauls for sale. Ang gaganda! Can I have the pickup covers? haha
Saw the 2013 as well. I was really gassing for a '61 before I bought the gold one. Pero it's cured na, no longing for the small pickguard anymore. But the 2013 SGs looks really good and I like the specs.

madali lang ba maghanap ng hindi nag neck dive na SG? :Di've owned 5 over the years. yung 3 gibsons dont neck dive. the 2 epis did. pero its not because of the wood used. the epiphones (a 3 pickup custom and a standard g400) had neck joints that forced the front strap button a little further down towards the butt end so pag naka strap they felt slightly neck heavy. but really, when you're playing, your right forearm would keep the neck from diving anyway.
yung gibsons had the front strap button a little forward so they didnt neck dive. they didnt feel body heavy either like a guitar. parang perfectly balanced so that it wont do a butt dive (like other electrics) or neck dive (like an epi sg).
anyway, its nothing a thicker strap or a one with suede lining on the inside will easily fix.

Had the time to take a better picture of my SG. It's a 1996 Gibson SG Special. I've always been a strat and a tele player but I also owned a nice LP before. What I love about the SG is that it is not muddy compared to a Les Paul. Notes are very clear and articulate, and this translates very well on a clean or a dist/od setting. It's very versatile and it gives me tons of tone options. This particular one has a Gibson Classic '57 on the bridge and a Seymour Duncan 59 on the neck. It's also fitted with CTS push pull pots for both positions and RS Guitarworks capacitors. Hopefully I get the chance to own another SG in the future, particularly one in a heritage cherry finish. Cheers! :-Dnice upgrades there :), want to try the RS guitarworks caps, how is it compared to the stock caps?? Thanks

^ Question, parehas lang ba ang spec ng DT signature saka ng 62ri?
Not sure about the 62ri. it's almost the same specs with the 61ri both have 57pups. the DT 's neck is slim true D profile, slightly different from the 61ri's that i've tried. the pots are 500k Linear Volume, 500k Non-linear Tone, i'm not sure with 61ri's pots but most sg now have 300k Linear Volume, 500k Non-linear Tone.

I intend to replace the bridge pick up (498T) with an SD JB but I'm a bit hesitant, not knowing about its outcome.
Does anybody here has an experience regarding this? Please share your helpful thoughts.

Post by: nathanmanansala on March 16, 2013, 12:05:36 PM
the 498 actually sounds close to the JB in an SG i think. you might get a bigger improvement swapping the neck pickup for something with a bit more bite like a 59 or pearly so you dont go from mellow and bassy neck pickup tone to a spikey bridge tone. have you considered a custom 5 sa bridge? that sounds great in the bridge on an sg i think.

If there's no difference at all I'd rather stick with the stock pick ups at the moment.

there is a slight difference. the JB's mid spike is EQ'ed a bit brighter i think. i just find the 490r too boomy. it makes it tough to eq an amp to make it sound good for both positions.

Maybe it's the looks why people don't usually like SGs. I used to hate them, my wife says mukha syang palakol. I would say it could be an acquired taste. My turning point was too much exposure to Epi SGs, and after some time trying them, i've come to love the "nimbleness" and the versatility of SGs (Especially with coil-split on G400 PROs). Then after I tried a Gibson SG at Crescendo, I was hooked. I GASed for an SG for months, then finally got the perfect one for me.

My turning point was too much exposure to Epi SGs, and after some time trying them, i've come to love the "nimbleness" and the versatility of SGs (Especially with coil-split on G400 PROs). Then after I tried a Gibson SG at Crescendo, I was hooked. I GASed for an SG for months, then finally got the perfect one for me.

I like how an SG looks... :-)
But it's so uncomfortable to me when being played while sitting down. The curved part of the body which will rest on my my lap is so far down the body that the neck seems so far.
Naexperience mo rin ba yun bro? Parang ang layo ng first frets pag naka-upo, as opposed to when I'm playing an LP or strat while sitting down.

The Nathan bro - yep ganda din yun, was choosing between the two actually, mas nagustuhan ko lang yung tone ng gold na nasa shop. Pero either way, ganda parehas.
Chino - actually di ko naman sya napansin. I enjoy it sitting and standing just like other guitars. Pero i know what you're saying, if mapansin mo si Derek trucks plays sideways probably because of the orientation of the sg. Pero it doesn't bother like a les Paul heel. If I didn't have the axcess, I'll be happy just using the SG.
Cayle - kuha na! Ano ba ang mahalaga? :lol: next time pa try ng tele mo! Mismo din daw yan e :cute:

Kahit Epiphone lang okay na sa akin. Ang mahalaga may pelham blue na SG tapos convert to Tweedy looks. :-D Meron Epiphone, pero yung 61 SG na pelham blue.
Sino maysabing mismo daw? Wag kayo maniwala don. :lol:

True! I don't know if it's just the lighting pero parang mas dark yung pelham blue ng Epiphone?
Epiphone G400 Deluxe Maestro. Discontinued na ata. This would be the closest I could get to the Tweedy SG for a fraction of the cost.

Patesting naman ng Epi na pelham blue. :-D
yung tweedy SG is not pelham blue. its "blue mist"

Ginoogle ko lang din hehe. But i did try out his sig sg. Liked the smooth neck and the low output burstbuckers. But i guess the vibrola is not for me though.. Diko lang siguro alam gamitin haha. heard some great feedbacks sa g400 w/ vibrola from some of the foumers in everythingsg. Sulit na sulit for the price.

nakasubok ka na ng 57/57+? didnt like them sa LP but they say those are perfect for SGs.
Hmmm.... I didn't like the 490R in my previous LP standard, but Ilove it on my SG. the
498T 490R sounds perfect for me in my sg than it was on my lp standard. In general for me mas buhay ang sound ng sg vs lp. Maybe because I'm a strat lover.
@mandoytz - haha, maybe that's what this forum is for - for folks like us to be exposed to more artists and gear. Then it means more GAS haha
@cayle - just checked now, ubos na! Haha. Been looking to get that for some time. If ever i get one I'll let u try for sure. About sa tele mo, si chino may sabi nun, hehe. Takot nga ako e, baka di ako makasabay, hihi

puro les paul. :D though hindi pa ko nakatry ng gibson LP
puru SG special/p90s/standard palang natry ko. haha.
hinde naman siguro sa ayaw.....like gusto ng SG re-issue....ang problema wala pambili :cry:
Post by: nathanmanansala on March 28, 2013, 02:40:27 PM
kahit sa budget guitars, if you let players choose between a G400 and a twin bucker, all mahogany PRS SE, mas madaming pipili nung SE. you'll read everywhere that the PRS, SE or not, will stay in tune better than the gibson or epi, too.
the SG image has attitude by the bucketload though.
not bashing the SG. i have 2 standards myself but no PRS. mas importante sakin itsura e.
anyone want to swap a PRS standard 22 for an SG? :lol:

mga sirs! long time no post, last post ko 2007 pa hihi :-D anyway, tanong ko lang to all SG users here, do you experience any choking in sustain specially sa upper frets? my SG Standard does not sustain that much (about 3 seconds max) & I'm a bit worried I got a dud. Upgraded the pickups to bkp riff raff, gutted-out the pcb circuit & soldered the traditional way, changed the pots to bkp 550k. checked the pickup heights, wala pa din. any thoughts? thanks! ^-^pansin ko around the 11th to 14th frets on the G string usually meron note that doesn't sustain like the rest of the neck. like the note fades from the fundamental tone and into the 2nd or 3rd hamonic too fast.
it makes for nice screaming leads but when you want it to sing and don't use too much gain, it sounds like the guitar just choked.
and it's there on all the SG's I've had. try nyo it rings out so differently from the rest of the neck that its hard to miss.

So this is inherent pala talaga sa mga SG :-( At least I know I have higher chances I didnt get a dud :-) I almost pulled the trigger on the faber kit, buti na lang hehe.. Ive read about decking the tailpiece + top wrapping which would "supposedly" improve the sustain but it's highly subjective & debatable. I haven't tried it yet though but may explore it on the next string change.

Haha, tomoh! How is the unpotted 59 and SD antiquity different on those SGs?mas biting and aggressive yung '59. yung notes have a more immediate attack. yung antiquity have more mids and a rounder top end. i might try the dimarzio 36th anniv PAF set on one of them. just not sure which kasi i like what i'm hearing already.

What I noticed is that mas may headroom ang dimarzio and mas in your face ang tone vs. SD. SD is more compressed and brilliant. this was my impression when I've tried SD 59 and 36th PAF. Try mo yung 36th PAF dito (Bridge) and SD59 (neck) pag kuha ng classic 20 :-)

oist jeibi.. nasa les paul and gibson forum ang kasagutan dyan.. he he
Modern Wiring: rolling back the volume results in loss of high frequencies - thus the need for treble bleed mod (unless you like the tone roll-off)
50's Wiring: rolling back the volume retains the high frequencies so you don't need a treble bleed. rolling back the tone will affect the overall volume though

Yessir. I actually like it better than my Gibson. IDK why. Also it's the lightest SG I've ever had and I've already had 8 SGs.
Out of the 8 if I was to rank them by my preference it'd be
Orville
Gibson
Greco
Tokai
Burny
Epiphone Custom 3PUP w/ Vibrola
Epiphone Custom 3PUP

BTW. I'm thinking of letting a luthier install bindings on the neck of my 1996 Gibson SG Special to make it look like the SG Specials of the 60s and 70s. Yay or nay?

Nabawasan ya yung neck dive, sana mas mabigat pa konti yung body ng SG ko para balanse na.
Ask ko lang if mas balanse ba ang Gibson SG than Epiphone SG? Alin mas mabigat ang body?

question, has anyone experienced playing a SG with a FAT neck? if yes, what brand/year so i can narrow down my search..
thanks in advance and Godbless,

Post by: markcasq on August 12, 2013, 09:50:23 AM
i've always wanted a SG because of the tone and the vibe.. what's been putting me off is the neck... my left hand hurts after a few minutes of playing guitars with thin necks..
question, has anyone experienced playing a SG with a FAT neck? if yes, what brand/year so i can narrow down my search..
thanks in advance and Godbless,
-Jon
All the epiphone and gibson SGs I've tried have fat necks. Not baseball bat fat but fatter than Les Paul 60s neck. What SG models have you tried? Maybe getting an Epi or Gibson SG will suit you. Or maybe you find their necks thin?

thanks for the suggestions.. i've yet to try a Epi.
i've tried a 90's Gibson, 90's Orville, 70's-80's Burny (can't remember what year), current production tokai SG, and even RJ SG, still a bit thinner than what i need.
i know SG's are not really known to have fat necks but i'm looking for one off's or maybe someone who's been able to try/have a Edwards and or other brands that might have fatter-than-usual necks.. something like 52' Tele/58' LP 'ish neck profiles..
GAS!
Post by: markcasq on August 12, 2013, 10:57:06 AM
Edit: The Tony Iommi signature has a fat neck pala, I just remember. But maybe it's not the SG-vibe you're looking for.

Ah, we have different come-from states sir. I came from strat/Ibanez necks so I find the SG neck fat. Thin for me is Ibanez wizard neck, even some Les Paul 60s, haha. You must be looking for 50s baseball bat necks. I'll let the seasoned SG users chime in :-)
Edit: The Tony Iommi signature has a fat neck pala, I just remember. But maybe it's not the SG-vibe you're looking for.
Sir Mark,
Alin ang mas heavy ang body? Tony Iommi Epi SG or a regular G-400 Epi SG?mMas gusto ko kasi heavy yung body, baka nasanay lang ako sa Les Paul.
Post by: dirtybluesplayer on August 12, 2013, 12:14:51 PM
For the SG fans out there who wants a fat neck, let a guitar builder build one for you, atlis ma poprovide niyo pa lahat ng gusto niyong specs

Markcasq: thanks for the inputs.. Tony Iommi sig series? hmmm... i think that'll be worth checking out. and if it's true, it'll be a good starting point! heheheh.. also, i love the old black sabbath so if it has crosses for fretboard markers, it's a plus! hahahaha...
and yeah, i guess comming from different guitar types would definitely play a huge role in one's neck profile orientation... i've always like shred guitars even since i was in highschool listening to megadeth, pantera, metallica, etc.. but... 1. i can't shred for the life of me and 2. my left hand carpal tunnel won't let me play these fast necks, so all i can do really is bend strings on fat necks :-) hehehehe...
can't wait to be able to find one i can test.. hope if there'd be a SG toneparty we can join in, someone brings a Tony Iommi! i'll bring.. beer! hehehehehe....

Haha, let's go, I have Epi Tony Iommi, G-400, 1966 G-400, G-400 Korina, Prophecy EX, and Gibson Standard gold. Bring 1 case of beer, hahaha. PM me sir, schedule natin. Tony Iommi has cross fretboard markers, like this:
Sir Mark,
Alin ang mas heavy ang body? Tony Iommi Epi SG or a regular G-400 Epi SG? Mas gusto ko kasi heavy yung body, baka nasanay lang ako sa Les Paul.
I didn't notice a significant difference between tony iommi and regular G-400. I find them both lighter vs. les paul. Weight could be different by guitar because each is unique, so it will be a matter of what specific guitar you choose.

Astig yung Kastigo sa video. Napanood ko cla dati, gamit yung dimebag guitar.
I suspect na kaya mabigat yung Gibson is because premium mahogany yung ginamit na wood.

Hi All, I'm planning to change the Epi SG's stock Grover tuners. Nawawala sa tono kasi. What brand do you recommend na vintage tulip/keystone style? Saka may big improvements ba if 18:1 gear ratio ang tuners?
You sure it's the machine heads that have the issue? More often than not, it's the poor nut. Strings tend to bind at the slots making them unable to return to the initial state.
Hindi pa ba 18:1 yung Grovers na nasa Epi? Kasi yung mga vintage style ay 14:1 lang. Haven't seen an 18:1 na tulip tuner. Mas stable din yung sealed (Grover, Schaller, Gotoh) kumpara dun sa mga tulip Kluson.

Tama ka sir, baka nga makuha sa nut. The stock tuners are 14:1 based sa epiphone website.

Hi, I only have the Epiphone SG G400, and my problem is the neck dive and getting out of tune :-P. Yung SG Special maple bolt-on ang neck kaya baka iba ang balance at baka mas minimal ang neck dive. Yung tuning was somehow solved by putting pencil lead on the nut slots, pampadulas. For the Neck dive, I inserted some counter weights sa loob ng POTs cavity. I can take pictures if you want to see.

I've posted this on other thread, pero baka sakaling may makapag bigay ng detailed ideas,
Any comparisons on this, Gibson SG (special or worn brown/red) vs. Epi SG PRO vs. LTD Viper Series,
I would take Epi or LTD kung walang issues sa tuning stability at playability, and will spend the extra bucks on Pickups,
Pero kung olats yung dalawa at sulit talaga kung Gibson (roughly 33,600 pesos yung SG special ngayon sa Dubai),
Any ideas will be greatly appreciated :D

I like the SGs because they are light and very playable. I have a Gibson faded cherry Special that I have changed the pups to a nickel covered 490T and 490R, which I prefer, look wise.I just acquired a Faded Cherry Special SG with 490T and 490R. I would like to put on a nickel pickup cover. Saan ka nakakuha nun? =)
Here are my SGs.
Standard SG Ebony with 498T and 490R humbuckers and Faded Cherry before nickel pup cover change.

Ang tanong ko po tingin nyo po ba sulit ang magagastos ko (repaint pa lang 5k na) ?
Kaylangan na din palitan tuners.
Yung electronics stock pa po.
Bridge pickup generic lang, neck pickup stock(may ukit ng "greco" sa cover, gagana pa kaya to?)
Or sa ibang bagay ko na lang ipang gastos yung budget?
Eto po actual picture nya. Sana may makasagot po. Salamat!

i just have a question in mind. i know its just a small detail but according to my research the truss rod cover of an SG 61 reissue should be plain black and white antique bell well mine got an SG bell that is present on SG standards. since its my first gibby and SG i dont want to have any doubts on it, it actually sang perfectly to me thats why i bought this at crescendo last saturday and i hope somebody can clear this up to me. thanks in advance and Godbless :) :)

it's a greco open o logo, 1980's SG mint collection from what my research tells me.
mga upgrade
- gibson bell truss rod cover
- slapping some gibson 57s (micsis)
- a refret job (papi's guitarshop)
- a small pickguard that needs some shaving to match the body contours.
- black gibson knobs with inserts (used to be gold gibson knobs with inserts)
this is what it looks like now. next project is to get a real gibson SG lol.

If it's mint then I guess it is okay. Does it have a two-piece body? Mas okay kasi yung earlier versions since two-piece sila. Right now they are producing three-piece and four-piece standards. :(

Anyway here's mine. It's some Japanese SG whose brand I can identify, but I suspect it's one of those better brands as evidenced by the fretwork and binding. The way the frets and binding were installed is very similar to how Gibson does it.
I've already changed the pickups to Dimarzio 36th Anniversary PAF units and it's finally very close to how I want it to sound. I've also wired it to have the Jimmy Page 21 tone, 4 x push pull pot set up. While useful, I still want to rewire it and replace the tone pots with push pull pots with a linear taper to give it more range; audio taper pots essentially give me only 2 options, i.e. full on and rolled off.

If you'll go leather, get one with a "suede" back/underside so it grips better on your shoulders. No guitar spin though. :-D

Nagka MONO Betty kami before. It was good and comfortable due to the wide profile and padding. Pero I cannot comment pagdating sa guitars with neck dives or those na hindi naka balance ang center of gravity relative sa placement ng strap button (like an SG) kung may effect ba yung width. Sorry.

Accept the fact that SG guitar shapes tend to do a neck dive. Yep, the suggestions were okay but, accepting the truth about the guitar is one thing also. That way, you'll never get disappointed.
De joke lang. Ang naging teknik ko jan e adjusting your strap length. In my situation, I came from full length (above knee playing) to under the chest position. Walang neck dive.
