Very nice Chuk. I'll bet your SG is much kinder to your back than my LP which weights in at just over 10 pounds. Your pick messy? I did notice the Intratech pic on the wall. Fancy a good pistola do you? Looks like a comfy hideaway for relaxing and cooking up ideas.

Nice guitar Chuk. Buy it local or order it from MF or some such?
Let us know how that guitar "gets down with the sickness" on your gigs.

I got it at guitar center. 12 months/ no interest during May.
It's a lot cheaper than I've ever seen a new LP. Key is the natural wood finish...sans maple top. They've been making SGs like this for a while. This sucker, with it's Burstbucker pickups, is a real tone monster. It's a real dream come true.
I can't wait to let it rip at a show. It was a real treat at practice.

Good on you Chuk for getting something good from GC. My last few experiences here in LV with them have left me less than thrilled.
Out of the two stores I have visited here while searching for a new V, none of the dozen or so I picked up were playable. One had strings hitting the pickup so I handed it back to the dude to setup and he gave it back a short time later worse than before. Go figure. Alas they are the only ones close by that I can get my hands on the guitar I am interested. Sooner or later I am hoping they will have one set up correctly that I can feel good about purchasing.
BTW I have always liked the finishes showing a bit of wood. Hope it gigs well for you!!

i wish it did, because the feel and sustain on it are unmatched. ah well someday !Ross, the Black "Puta" Les Paul is a stock 78' Les Paul Pro. Gibson had some leftover Classic bodies and essentially turned it into a 56' Goldtop in black with a better bridge. The pickups are Gibbo stock P90 single coils. More meat than say Fender single coils and more bite than humbuckers. The last few years have seen alot of players especially blues cats, go with the P90'. They sound great with pedals but are best straight into the amp. Set in the middle position you can get a bit of the Fender quack sound. Very versatile overall. I quit gigging the guitar as I can't afford to replace it. Last appraisal on it was $4,800.

the les paul studios are basically les pauls without the finish right? my buddy in college had one, and the only difference i could tell (apart from his ebony fretboard) was there was no white trim down the guitar, and the finish wasnt that polished paint that the les pauls have. other than that, it was identical. same pickups, and everything. les pauls are a rip off if you buy them new (the standards and up). at 2200 for a standard, i would take a studio for 1200 any day. or a used standard, which is what i got..

Woot!
awesome! i love that finish. i was looking at an lp, but i had already talked myself up about 100-150 bucks when i got the jackson i have haha so i figured i had to draw the line somewhere.

jackson makes good guitars. shred metal guitars at that. id like to get a jackson sometime, but i have decided the next thing i get will either be an es-335 or an epiphone dot (same thing, just not a gibson). damn but i want an ibanez rg series too.....
how do you like that jackson you have? does it sound good? can you play it sitting down? (based on the shape..)
