Guitaristas I’m a guitar tech in New York and have really enjoyed your reviews infused with your fun personality for some time now. Thank you. I tell my customers about your not at all typically thorough inspections. I do have a possible suggestion or two if you wouldn’t mind. I also perform these inspections for all my customers bringing me a new guitar for set up. The two critical checks I do, especially for the G brand and Im not excluding the ridiculously overpriced Custom Shop models, is verifying proper nut slot depth from string to string and fret level. A conservative 50% of these guitars require some degree of fret level, crown and polish, particularly for those expecting very low action. These common build quality issues are not exclusive to G brand but certainly more common with them. Just my thoughts. Keep up the good work, healthy addiction and sense of humor. Cheers, Gary

Regarding the resistance measured on the pickups. Remember, they are wired in parallel with the pots. 1/Rpickup + 1/Rpot = 1/Rjack where Rjack is the resistance measured at the jack socket. Back-calculating based on a Rjack of 7KΩ we get the actual pickup resistance as 7.1KΩ so you're a fraction closer to what you expected.

SG's have never really twisted my GAS lemon tbh, but that one's quite a beauty, and sounds fantastic! Great ro see/hear someone enthuse about something they love, and comforting to now realise that GAS is a good, healthy thing!...quite right - there are lots of unhealthy things that one can get addicted to. Super playing, btw!

Three of the four guitars I currently own are SGs … the row of SGs behind you is giving me interior design ideas. I had my eye on the Olive green version of that guitar and now I wish I had bought it!

I have one of these from CME. Checks all the boxes, and I like it better than Gibson’s two main offerings (Standard and ‘61). So good.

I appreciate your analysis of the psychology behind buying. I have a dozen guitars and would only freely part with two of them. I seem to buy one a year. Best wishes.

It is nice to know your favorite guitar maker. I prefer guitars with a Floyd Rose, so my favorite companies are ESP, Charvel, and Jackson.

That's a beautiful guitar. It will look even better once it gets some age and checking. I'd be tempted to try and check it prematurely!

Nice one Colin, The SG is my favourite guitar too, not to sure about the colour but shell pink is definitely different....

Colin congratulations on this unusual Gibson SG! You don't have to explain yourself lol I can see why you bought it, the shell pink color, torty pickguard, smaller 1970s style inlays plus those T-top style pickups set it apart from your average SG Standard. Having 7 SGs myself (five Gibsons, 1 Epiphone Muse and a Harley Benton model it's my favorite Gibson model and overall electric guitar, my second choice being the Reverse body Firebirds) thanks for the great review and I really dig the sounds out of this one,, great score!

Super cool SG! I want one, but don't need one. The last new Gibson SG I bought in 2019 had severe file chatter on the neck binding and fingerboard. I actually sent it to Gibson Repair and Restoration for warranty work. It came back 2 weeks later perfect. I don't play it as much as I should, but I have really bonded with it.

OH $H!T! I love it.... I even like the pink, the only thing wrong with it is..... No P-90's but it sounds magnificent. I also love the Captain and Danish Pete... what a great buy Colin. That's a keeper. I never told you, but I rode and raced Triumph motorcycles for 42 years.

Been eyeballing those too, I think I like almost everything about it you showed me. Cept the brittle shell of the pink. I like it.. and you have some great sounds in those hands man.

I feel your pain about the bridge pickup pocket. I'd be inclined to try color matching and touch up in any visible areas, but of course one could potentially make it worse if not very careful. SG's aren't my thing, although I think they look cool, and pink isn't my thing either, but I have to say by the end of the video the guitar was growing on me.
