That looks awesome! How many thousands of dollars is this one?

 

$2129 USD list. That's surprisingly cheap.

And I want one.

 

Imho i only like red SG ( color fits with the shape so well ) , and if i were to pay over 2000$ for an SG, it would need to have one of those old maestro vibrola's

 

Most US stores will knock around 35% off the MSRP, so you are looking at around $1375 street US. I like the TOM, not a fan of the Maestro myself.

 

Hmmm...do I like SGs? YES! Do I need 24 frets??? ummm...I guess sometimes...which is a YES! Count me in! I'll have to see what retail prices are like up here, but that looks interesting indeed.

 

Hmmm...It's about time they released a sensible guitar that addresses common requests, ie, classic and proven design and 24 frets for reasonable (given the company and general industry) cost. In concept, there's a lot to like.

Peace, Mooh.

 

Given the strong dollar, if and when they arrive here they should be around the same price as the US stores. I see one on line @ $1300 - 1400.

 

You could also look at it like a Tony Iommi model without the cross inlays like the signature models. Tony has a few that were custom made with more traditional inlays.

I would def like to try one of these.

 

... or the old SG1 (also 24 frets) if you are into the "junior" thing!

I hear you - I like Red/Cherry SG's also (I have two). I do play my Ebony Standard most of the time - just love the feel of that guitar.

These are going for a reasonable price in the US online retailers. I may check with locals & see what they can do...just for kicks because I don't NEED another guitar!!!

 

i have always wanted to like an SG. i just haven't played one yet that doesn't have a flat neck. i just don't dig the flatness.
if i ever come across one with a more conventionaly shaped neck, i bet i'd love it.

 

Neck

Heavy

 

I had one for a while. Nice fat, chunky sound out of that thing. I just never really got into the 24 fret guitars as much as I thought I would. Same as the Les Paul DC I had. Great sound but i Just prefer 22 fret guitars. That DC was a little neck heavy due to the chambered body. It was very playable though.
