Tell me why this isn't the best guitar model of all time
>you can't
>>66259265
I much prefer les pauls
I sold my gibson sg after getting a 1970s japanese les paul copy because it played better and sounded better. Paying for Gibson is like paying for apple products.
Umm...Excuse me?
>>66259310
Les Paul's are too heavy.Was trying out my friend's and I got like 3 bruises on my hip
>>66259343
can you even play stairway to heaven on that thing?
>>66259368

>>66259447

>>66259467
Somewhat plump
>>66259418
Not even close man...Why do you guys hate Strat players so much? Its not like its a Memestang...
>>66259523
Because they're gay
>>66259523
how often do you use those pedals in your pink floyd cover band
>>66259661
Come on, I'm in college dude. I'm not that old and sad yet...

No thanks.
>>66259780
i'm a poorfag, these are only like $400 down the street
>>66259859
The ones I listed are literally the same price or lower fampai
>>66259939
oh shit seriously? i might have to look around for that epiphone because it's fuckin nice in matte black
Christ Almighty.
If you know anything about guitars beyond the manufacturer and model, then you would know that this is a shit discussion to have. Not all SGs even sound the same, so where some are fucking buttery smooth there are others that are pure shit.
Given that I have a guitar body and neck of good quality wood and in literally any body shape, I can wire a guitar to sound exactly like a higher end SG/LP/Strat/Tele/JM/whatever the fuck I want.
In an age where guitarists are chasing perfect tone, it's doesn't matter what guitar you choose beyond what body shape you think looks cool. There are companies now devoted to pickups and wiring kits that are made to order.
So fuck your bullshit question. There are hundreds or thousands of guitars better than your shit SG.
maybe because it's unnecessarily difficult to play past the 19th fret thanks to the horn? don't get me wrong I love my SG but it's not a guitar I'd use to play lead, bae gets that honor (pic related)
>>66259983
Ikr, I was going to buy it but the inlays are only on the side which would put me off
>>66259998
Hi fender fag
>>66259999
oh fuck my inner /b/ is coming out

>>66259999
Nice digits and guitar.
>>66260005
The only thing is that I want my guitar this weekend at the least and i've looked around pretty much every non-grubby music store in my city this this gun b gud
>>66260005
I have a mexi-Martin with the inlays on the side, and you get over it within like an hour.
>>66260038
thx brah
>>66259265
>Tell me why this isn't the best guitar model of all time
Because is not made by Fender©
>>66259999
m8 your jazzmaster has some weird pickups lol
>>66260055
What guitar you getting man?
>>66259343
This for most genres.
>>66260123
probably that jackson kelly
>>66260100
that's because it's a jaguar fella. much crisper and jangly-ier than a jazzmaster, perfect for lead
>>66259265
>not fender
>good
>>66260031
Nah. Warmoth, but good try.
>>66260221
Any Fender made after mid-'65 is shit.
>>66260253
dude you're honestly such a fag if you believe that. the tone is 50% in your fingers, 30% in your amp and 20% your guitar. so tired of hearing you fender elitists trash talking reissue models because they don't use the exact same capacitors as the original 1964 twin reverb. NOBODY is going to hear the difference when you play it live, absolutely NOBODY, not that it even matters
>>66259265
Gibson guitars are extremely fragile compared to e.g. a Strat because of their design.
I own a cheap SG (Epiphone special) and it had some minor injuries because of falling over.
Also nowadays in Gibson factories quality control is non-existent.
>>66260397
My uncle is a Les Paul player and his Custom LP from the 80s has held up better than his from 2011. Its amazing how cheesy they've gotten.
>>66259999
I never had a problem with that horn.
>>66260397
I have a Gibson sg and a epiphone sg 4300 pro for spare.The epiphone Id still working great till this day even after 4 years of excessive use
>>66260451
lots of people don't but I have big hands and I also play in a more classical position, like this, so it totally gets in my way
>>66260377
>tone is 50% in the fingers
LOLOLOLOLOLOL ok
Tone is solely derived from the electronics. Whether or not you can play a lick is in the fingers but your fucking tone does not emit from them, you twat.
It's about 50% amp, 40% pups, and 10% body.
>Playing anything besides a Fender telecaster
All you plebs are forgetting the true patrician guitar model
>>66260497
Can you put a price on peace?
>>66260543
Not that guy, but while he over exaggerated you're crazy if you don't think that the way that you pick doesn't affect your tone. This is especially true on Fender guitars.
>>66260606
proud to call that guy my guitar teacher and a constant source of inspiration for my lead playing
>>66259698
You're on your way there, man. Sorry.
>>66260586
came here to say something like this
I don't play guitar, and I'll never will.
I find these guitar the best looking. but purely personal.
>>66260543
>>66260625
it's the way you pick and how dig you deep into the string, whether you sweep or alternate pick, how much squeal you let out, where and how often you make use of legato, your bends, etc. etc. people vastly underestimate how much their left hand plays a role in their tone. you can play all the right notes of a solo in perfect time but if you don't play it the same WAY as the artist, you'll still be waaay off
>implying you can be the best design with only one neck
>>66259343
>muh gilmour git
Because Gibsons are trash. They feel stiff, more like furniture than a guitar, the necks are baseball bats, and they're the only guitars I've ever played that manage to be both muddy and shrill at the same time. All of these things apply to most/all models, across every era of the company, without even touching on the horrendous build quality of modern Gibson.
>>66260751
do you by any chance like ted nugent?
>>66260765
cum @ mi bruv
>>66260606
Peeeaaaceee...peace sellsssssss...peeaaaaaceee...peace sellssssssss ARRGGGHGGH
>>66259343
Best guitar ever built imo
>>66260765
how much does linda manzer charge for one of these? I doubt it's less than 30k.
Strat >\= LP > Tele > ES 335 > SG > Casino >>>>>>>>>>> Explorer >>>>>>> Mustang >>>>>>>> shit >>>>>>>>> Jaguar >>>>>>>>>>>>> Jazzmaster > Flying V
>>66261305
what's wrong with the V? that shit was my wet dream guitar when i was a kid
shit
>>66261305
Mustangs Jags and JMs below anything?
lol ok, you fucking pleb
The stratocaster is the best guitar model that has ever been in production. If you disagree you are a contrarian piece of shit.
Excuse you
>>66260807
Nugent would never play an epiphone; they're not even made in america!
>>66260253
Any Gibson built after they got founded is shit.
>>66263038
but....but muh album
*Ahem*
>>66263038
>they're not even made in america!
They were before they got bought by Gibson.
>>66259265

>>66262867
>lol look at me I'm so indeh xD
>>66264128
yuck.
>>66259343
Why would anyone play anything besides a strat?
>>66264376
because tele's exist.
>>66264404
Anything teles can do strats can do.
>>66264404
Bada bing
I have an Explorer and I love it, it handles everything from violent shoegaze to clean indie, and I love the feel of the neck.
I have a Les Paul too but I keep it downtuned for sludge and doom stuff, it handles the heavier tones slightly better.
I never got the love for Stratocasters, they handle the twangy sound well but aren't great for very clean or very distorted styles, and the feeling of the necks fucking suck
You all know it's true.
>>66264478
>les paul
>explorer
>humbuckers
of course you don't like strats you monster
>>66264420
backwards
>>66259343
Don't even like strats but this is it mang
what model of guitar has the largest frets down the neck? I have a SG but my fingers are too big and I can't do shit past the 15th fret
>>66264420
If you install a copper/brass base plate maybe.
>>66264625
A bass.
>>66260586
>Thinline
I can't play anything else now
>>66264625
the frets are the wires, not the spaces between them. and you can't make a guitar with more space between the frets; those spaces are determined by the physics of harmonics. the width is given by a ratio multiplied by the length of the neck. the only way to get wider spaces between frets is to play a guitar with a longer neck, ie either bass or baritone.

Fuck that, narrow it down more
Thinline or Die.
>>66263002
That guitar's bigger than he is
>>66267520
This is why I don't want to get a gorgeous Jazz Box, because they're so fucking big.
>>66266520
Fuck you, it's Thinline P90 MIJ w/ Bigsby tremolo and heavy gauge flatwounds or nothing
>>66259265
The headstock is fragile. The short scale combined with humbuckers can lend itself to an excessively muddy sound. The neck joint is relatively fragile. The neck is more difficult to replace on a set-neck design than a bolt-on design, while simultaneously offering less sustain. That style of front-mounted jack is prone to getting damaged. Two humbuckers isn't as tonally versatile as a strat setup or HSH or HSS or even two P90s tbqh. The tune-o-matic bridge can, depending on which model your SG came with, simply fall off the guitar when changing strings. The placement of the upper strap button can cause heinous neck dive. The small headstock models look wrong, but the big headstock models are neck-heavier.
>>66267939
p.s. that picture is worst SG finish; even silverburst is better
>>66264625
piccolo bass
Most versatile guitar I've ever played, P90s are godly

>>66267652
Don't be a bitch.
>>66267881
Surely you mean
Thinline P90 MIJ w/Bigbsby tremolo and heavy gauge flatwounds, Mahogany body, rosewood neck, Pickguardless, with only one neck pickup because minimalism.
>>66268451

If there were more guitars with almost identical aesthetic and in a smaller size, I'd be all over them Single cutaway, single pickup, double f hole, Jazz Machines.
>>66259265
body too thin, tone too hot, pickups too noisey, the headstock is too heavy, the angle of the headstock is terrible and allows easy breaking of the headstock, neck joint separates too easily, the action rises after 1 month of being set, neck bows too easily, just a little amount of pressure on the neck allows bending of neck, solder joints on the potentiometers are garbage, the tuners dont lock and since the action and neck are garbage, it never stays in tune
I have played SGs for 14 years and I always preferred a telecaster or les paul
>get on my level
