  • Love the feel of it! Pickups are way hotter than my Jazzmaster's but also set very high, might take them down a touch and see how that changes things in terms of general tone.

    And of course, pic so it did happen...!

  • Lovely stuff. I'm increasingly drawn to SGs, that's exactly the perfect colour and configuration for one.

    Edit: I like the fully bound fretboard also - I don't know if they're all like that, but that seems like a great detail for the price.

  • Likewise, always liked SGs to be fair, but really been looking at them more and more and always knew HBs don't do much for me and P90s were the way to go. I like my SGs translucent red and with the full batwing pickguard rather than the smaller 61 style, and I fell in love with sating finished when I tried an Ibanez of all things with that kind of finish when I was 15/16 - not a great guitar per se but felt so nice in the hands.

    So when I walked into Wunjo's today and they told me it had come in at the end of the day yesterday and offered me a few quid off I could not resist, it felt like it had to be!

    Binding is really lovely and well made and I really like the newer style headstock too. Old school jr/special style tuning pegs are a lovely touch too and they're actually super accurate to tune, feels like the turn ratio is lower than usual which makes for easy fine adjustment.

  • 2007 Guitar of the Week SG Jazz is pretty much top of my wishlist (or at least moderately affordable wishlist) at the moment.
