Gibson SG 61 Reissue Price Paid - $1400 (negotiated) at Guitar Center Year - 2005 Specs: * Mahogany body and bound neck * Rosewood fretboard * Gibson Classic '57 humbuckers at the neck and bridge * Tune-o-matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece * Nickel hardware * Gibson hardshell case Sound: I can't say enough about how much I love the sound of this guitar! Clean it almost sounds like chimes to me, that's the only way I can describe it. So much tone..depth of tone.... Overdriven, it's the real Cream tone. This is my fav. electric to play because of its sound. Playability: The neck is great, and actually a little thin for me as I grew up playing acoustics and I'm not a fast player. The set-up out of the box may not be 100% spot on; I'm still playing with the tuning and I *think* it's ok. The SG is nice and light and well balanced. And to think that I almost bought a 9+ pound Les Paul! Overall Value: I was thinking about Les Paul Standards, and even Custom Shop Les Pauls, and I'm sooo glad I played this SG before buying one of them. I'm really happy with it, and it's quite a bit less expensive than the quality Les Pauls. For me at this time, it was a great value.
