Of course, I knew that. What the hell was I thinking? Oh well, I'll have to find another excuse to play loud.

Loud is just better!
I'm real excited for ya man. Can't wait to hear what you come up with this this thing.
Thanx Ido. That sucks about getting your guitar stolen. I can't believe how often I hear that. It's like EVERYONE has had their guitar stolen at some time.Happy new guitar day! I had a 55/74 LP Special with P90's and it was stolen. $%#$% burglar.
I agree. I can't see how anyone would want another color. Black, maybe.The cherry red is THE classic SG color
I can't. I dropped it off at a guitar shop to get a sex change. They got to change the nut, etc....and make it a lefty. I'll post as soon as I get it back.Now....WTF is it with the stock photos????
Post up some picks of the real deal.
I tried posting it there, but I didn't make it past the front door. I walked in there, felt really dirty, and left right away....I....I.....just couldn't do it.why the Newbies forum for a new git?
Should be down in the Guitar forum....where by-the-way...I just did my own "New Guitar Day" thread.
Different guitar...but same color.
That's for SG's in general. Long neck and light body.I've also read people saying that Epiphone's are un-balanced. If you stand with a strap on, the neck starts sinking unless you hold the body.
^^^^^ this ^^^^^^That's for SG's in general. Long neck and light body.
Yeah, get the tom mics. I don't think they're as addictive as a shiny new guitar. I'm already shopping for another one, and my first one hasn't even come home yet.YO!
Congrats RamiDude!
That's a right purdy guit-fiddle. I've never had the SG but I've got a couple of Epi LP's and have played on several Epi's that friends own and I've always been impressed with the build quality.
Pretty sure ya just added to my g.a.s.
But I'll be strong.
I'll get my tom mics first.

Congrats on the new guitar. If I ever get another one it will probably be an SG, too. Greg's fault again!!
OK, that's good to know. Thanx guys.^^^^^ this ^^^^^^
Pretty much all SGs are neck heavy ....... Firebirds too.
Bob is right. P-90's do indeed rock!I don't think you screwed up. P-90s are awesome ..... they really sound much like a 'bucker but without the mud. They have a clarity most 'buckers lack.
People often make the mistake of thinking that they(AC/DC) use a lot of gain. As Greg pointed out, they don't.Both of the Youngs use humbucker guitars into very loud Marshalls. They also work their volume knobs and don't use a lot of gain. They also know how to pick to tailor their sound. You should be able to get a crunch tone similar to either of their sound without too much effort. You won't nail it down exactly, but pretty much no one does anyway. Just get close and you'll do great.
My friend had one that was hard to play with 9's as the slightest extra pressure would make the string go sharp when freting. 10's are probably the answer but I really do prefer 9's. He traded it in anyway....

I played an SG for years with .9's on it with no problems. The main thing is just setting it up properly. Do that and I don't foresee any problems.Encouraging advice, guys. Thanx
Ido, I can't see myself playing with anything other than 9-42's. I hope it doesn't cause too many problems, but I can never really bend in tune anyway, so maybe it will help.
