What is everyone doing????

[thesmokingman]

causing trouble elsewhere ... got a little sidetracked last year chasing down unobtainium parts for the various things I want to eventually build after smallbear announced they were closing ... now that my stash is secured I've shifted focus to some of the more complex builds I have on my plate

Cooking,  gardening projects and putting in time playing guitars.

Is that one of the newer '61s? Missed a couple opportunities in the last few months to get one at a really good price but I've committed to selling a couple guitars before buying a third SG. I'm trying to keep my total guitar count to 5 but I'm already +1, haha.

It is Brian, the new standard 61. Sounds and plays excellent. I sold a Les Paul tribute to get it and so glad I did. I'm set now on guitars, all bases covered including bass, my p-bass. Not pictured is my martin acoustic, that stays in the case.

That a real nice looking SG Chris.

My local shop just got one of the Worn Cherry Red Epiphone SG Specials with P90s in. Played it when my son was at drums on Saturday.

last year was rough, all work an no fun. I also had to finish my dissertation...it took a lot of time.
But this year I hope I can build more stuff, lets see. Last year I had a lot of Ideas an no time. It has been centuries since my last subminiature amp.

not yet, still have to defend it. With the pandemic it has been more difficult to fix a date.

A lot of my favorite forum members stopped being active in the forum. Kind of a bummer but I understand.

I remember how awesome things were when I first joined and then slowly but surely, people started fading away.

I guess the lifespan of a pedal builder is relatively short. Once a person feels they have built everything they could possibly ever want, they get bored and move on.

That said, I'm still excited about building and have been playing a ton of guitar.

I feel the same. I have the passion even if I don't always have the time. The big thing for me is that there wasn't alot of projects that were exciting or excited me. Brian has been on fire since summer.

What SG do you have besides the SGJ?

This is my main squeeze right now, which is a 2003 Standard (and I also have a ebony 2018 Standard). I think I'm actually going to sell the 2018.

Man, there's a lot of SG players on here! Good stuff. I lurk here from time to time to look at builds but have been building amps and rack gear, which takes ruining other forums, too Still, this forum was and continues to be a great place full of great people.

All the best,

Marty

I'm in the SG club too... Mine is a 2005 Standard in Natural Burst. The mid-2000's had the thicker 50's necks that I very much prefer over the thin 60's profile that everything else seems to have.

[thomasha]

Nice one, those are not so common.
Any love for SG juniors? I would love to have one with the dogear P90s, but they seem to be out of stock everywhere in the EU.

Well, that and some convincing, cause my wife knows I already have a SG shaped guitar...

[jkokura]

I had an SG for a little bit. I sold it tho. I probably owned the wrong kind, as mine had a pair of P90s in it, and I didn't dig the sound. I'm in for the classic Singles or Doubles, but don't get along with any Hum.

I've got an epiphone sg that I'm storing for a cousin. Haven't dug into it yet.

I bought a used 2016 SG Standard w P90's about three years ago. It's basically the perfect guitar for me. With 11's is just slays. Only maybe to be surpassed by a '61 w/ humbuckers at a future time, haha.
