    The SG horns. Lol. I swear, I only noticed they were asymmetrical less than five years ago. Well into adulthood. Their association with hard rock and metal, Angus Young,Tony Iommi, the red and black finishes. It all made me think they were specifically designed to have a devil horns vibe. It really speaks on how ahead of their time Gibson was. The V and Explorer prove that. It’s like a time traveler came back and told them to make these shapes, their time will come. Lol. My brother is a Jazz pianist/guitarist and has a Flying V because he always thought they were cool. Some times a jazzhead guy or two will roast him about playing a heavy metal guitar. He then has to set them straight about it originating in the 1950’s, and they don’t know what they’re talking about. That shuts them up every time.

      I have stared at SGs for over 30 years and always thought they were symmetrical. It hit me after looking at a Pelham blue one I’ve owned for over 2 years. I was completely shook and it’s taken me months to accept it.

    I have been looking at a new SG standard for a while now and I’m pretty bummed with Gibson getting a bit cheap. I won’t pull the trigger just yet because a guitar like that now comes in a gig bag. Yes I could spend $125-$150 to get a case but shouldn’t they give you a hard shell case still? That’s been bugging me a lot.

    • @216trixie

      216trixie that’s super lame then. The last new guitar I bought was about 15 years ago it was an SG standard but in a limited finish. Back then they were like $1100 and came with a hard shell case. That’s just super lame that they are now $1600-$1700 and come in gig bags.

    Wood grain lottery: just picked up a Squier Vintage Modified Bass VI in 3-tone burst, almost got the newer one, but that’s Poplar and I read that as a tone wood it’s kind of meh… so the older V-mods are Basswood, and somehow mine wound up with some dancing figuring on the top and back! Never knew basswood could do that!

    I like the bald man but its strange that it doesn't have the black along the edge by the neck. I lucked out in getting a case for the SG I bought from you. Took about 2 to 3 months so I kept the SG in the box you sent it in. I know what it's like to be teased about a name of a cartoon characters or comic character. Watched Blues Brothers and Blues Brothers 2000 this evening and found myself checking out the guitars more than usual. One of the guys played a Gobsin Double cut like one of the the ones you just reviewed.

    That LP going to Canada, get some rosewood and grind some with the small holes on a block metal cheese shredder. Mix a thick paste with Tight Bond wood glue and fill the gap after taping the binding. The folling day very carefully sand flush. Color blend should be almost perfect. Easy repair.

    I have a Manhattan Midnight studio from 2015 and the finish has a consistent fade, it's about half black and half blue. Maybe they've changed it, the grain is a lot more visible on that one with it being more blue so it does look nicer despite seeming uneven. If it's supposed to look like mine it's a rarity where the spay tech had a sneezing fit while doing the black :)

    Do you have any other batwing SGs in? Because I think the Kirk Douglas is more sculpted in the lower horn than regular '68 Standards. Looks closer to a 61 but with the big pickguard so it would be interesting to compare if possible.

    I use car scratch remover polish with a foam pad on a drill. Sounds sketchy but works amazing. Did a DIY les paul kit and used this method to buff tru oil into a mirror finish. Took like 25 coats and then steel wool between each to get it smooth enough to buff it but a guitar with a good finish already will buff out easily. Give it a try. You wont be disappointed.

    I really like that Gibson soft case. I didn’t know they came in black, I’ve only seen the brown. Anyone know if that’s real leather? I wish Epiphone offered those. The same case just with Epiphone on it. I would get one for my Wilshire Pro. Technically it’s called an Epiphone Custom Shop Wilshire Pro, but the phrase Epiphone Custom Shop sounds funny to me because I’m sure that’s more of a concept than an actual manufacturing facility. I could be wrong though.
