Gibson SG is the perfect slide machine.

Sexiest electric, 100%. But when I have one on, it feels kinda wrong, like I'm kissing my sister.

Kissing your hot sister.

What did you do about the screw holes? I would probably just put the screws back in like I do on an LP.

I ignore them. The wood is very dark, and the holes are very small. You have to look to find them.

The LP only has one tiny hole out by the bridge pick up, also ignore-able.

That looks a lot better IMO.

Thanks! Much cleaner. I did want to do it right away so the wood would age along with the uncovered area.

I had spent the past couple of months searching, made a decision, and then all of sudden my old brain remembered that I already do have a kinda sorta SG that has been hiding out in a closet for many years.

Remembering that was like a skunk turning into the wind saying..."Ah yes! It all comes back to me now!"

I used this guitar on a couple of recordings strung normally and strung Nashville.

I bought this guitar in 1990 for $100 from a guy who needed cash.

It ain't a Gibson SG, but this old 1980 Westbury Maple SG...set neck...w/ Dimarzio pups is a fine guitar. Google it.

That's a fine looking guitar.

This is a Firefly that I bought years ago. It needed some fret and neck attention out of the box, but not a big shake. I think I paid $150.
I put a set of Seymour Duncan Pearly Gates in it. All in all, it's a good player, and the PGs are really nice.
Even if I could get the $$ I put into it, it's a keeper.
