Beautiful.

Now just do what my boys would do, borrow it and never "remember" to bring it back!

My oldest still has a Kramer he "borrowed" in High School.

He's now married with children of his own- don't think I'm ever seeing that red Kramer again! Oh well as long as he keeps being loud.

Fukin A Right brother!
A most righteous wall of tone indeed.:dood:
And pops guitar is gorgeous.

Thank you my friend! That is awesome and kind of you to say! Dad has some tastes i suppose lol

Finally you started to walk right path.

guitar looks good and you 2 are match made in heaven, great playing I was ready for disappointment likely it didn't happen.

Hahaha thank you my friend! I told ya id use the explorer next so i lied a bit, but this one came by the house and was too good not to try out! Glad i didnt fail ya again lol

 

[Clockworkmike]

Killer! I used to love jamming to that album. Haven't played it in years, so that was like a blast from the past.

Cool guitar too.

Thank you so much my friend! Yeah Sabbath was one of things thats got me to pick up the guitar, along with ACDC. Ironically, they both SGs so I guess thats why i like em subliminally? Lol. Thank you for the kind words!!

Great playing Mike!! You know how to make guitars sing..

Thank you so much buddy!! Its just the guitars and amps: they play themselves like an old western saloon piano and i just mime it lol no seriously thank you man!!

Thank you sir! Dad's got some pretty good taste i suppose lol

Oh he took the guitar on a permanent loan huh? Lol man, i live just up the street from my folks so if i dont stroll one of those back to his house, he'll be marching back up to mine and beating on my door! I did acquisition that faux 335 from him years ago but i ended up putting like 3x as much into it than it was worth to upgrade it and he felt bad and said keep it lol

You know you want one!

I love the look, but IF I ever got an SG, it would be something a lot more like your new Maybach.

I can tell you it's amazing and there's nothing flimsy about it. You'd like the neck.

I also would like the P90, but there is no way I can afford a new guitar right now.

I was looking at some John Birch P90 Pickups like Iommi used, possibly swapping out some humbuckers on an old Epiphone. Wouldnt ever mod any of the Gibsons but thats flexible lol

My dad wanted me to look over his SG custom and had some questions. So i took it up to the house , checked it over, cleaned it and once i was done, figured " Lets hear it!" So here's some Sabbath!

That's a really nice axe, rating 4 drools. It gives me SG custom GAS without a doubt.

Thank you sir! He's got a few nice axes in his case, mostly just a collector because he doesnt play really, so i help out in that department from time to time for a "tune up and cleaning" lol

This one is an 86 Custom with 498T, a T top patent number pickup and a 490R. He has another one thats a 97 '60 Les Paul SG custom reissue with 3 57 classics that sounds great too
