@XecronDeathstorm ew you hear him sample all of these greeat songs and you want to know what that wierd dark harmonic sounding music is at the end... sad
Like I get so sick of everyone playing Guns N Roses material on a Les Paul.. Come on man! :D Play some Van Halen, or Satriant on a Paul, let's see how that sounds through a Marshall tone :D
Les Paul had nothing to do with the SG because he didn't like it. He didn't like the style and body, but before there were SGs, there were Les Pauls. SGs come from the Les Paul family. Les Paul took his name off of it finally in 1962.
I love how I saw the name of the video, went in Wikipedia, read about Les Paul being angry about stuff happening without their permission, what SG stands for. then started watching the video and Phil said the exact same thing in the same order. :D
I love how I saw the name of the video, went in Wikipedia, read about Les Paul being angry about stuff happening without their permission, what SG stands for. then started watching the video and Phil said the exact same thing in the same order.
Conclusion: Phis has read Wikipedia before the review. :D
One of my county's most important guitarists used the same instrument. He was the first and the greatest who played Cream Jimi Hendrix and Led Zeppelin in Hungary. Unfortunately he only wrote a few songs he thought he's not as good as his favorite bands so he kept playing their songs till his dead in 1982 when he was 36 years old...
'62 SG, '60 Les Paul, '60 Rosewood Strats.....always interesting to see these guitars they made the year after a classic batch. You'd think that with the lessons learned from these model runs that failed or succeeded tonally, that makers would have perfected the modern runs. Most of the classics still sound better.....strange. Friggin' poly finishes.....we want nitro back, standard....
@SixStringHarmonies it's all about the wood . The particular batch of hardwood used by the manufacturer in a given yr . The grain of the wood and a number of factors make it impossible to duplicate it exactly
Saw Zakk Wylde and Slash live and not together mid 2009. Zakk played all through the Show his Epiphone sigs LP. and a Epiphone 1959 Gold top LP. Slash played his Epiphone sigs and a white Epiphone custom LP.
@keineahnung1001 it depends on if you need tweakability of tone or if you need a guitar that can handle radical playing. if you play a lot, all the time, get a guitar with a neck shape you like and a tone you want. if you play someone elses songs or want to achieve a particular sound, get a combo amp with built in effects.
Amen to not having to play what other people play on a type of guitar! I have a gretsch hollowbody and when I feel like it, I crank up the gain and treble and play ac/dc!
@souljer0 Just a heads up, Malcolm Young (ACDC's 2nd guitarist) almost exclusively plays a Gretsch to get the band's signature tone (along with Angus' SG) (Not trying to troll or anything, not long ago realised they even had 2 guitarists ;) )
I read on a gibson forum that SG actually stands for "second generation", not "solid guitar", to distinguish it from the original style Les Paul. Has anyone else ever read or heard that?
The nail polish makes it much easier to see what frets Phil's playing, along with looking Rock and Roll, haters go ______ your _____ in the _____. (mad libs are fun kids!)
@TolikRyumin he said once that les paul juniors becouse of the p90 and he like that only one pick up, picks up all of the sound and resonance of the wood
I would love to hear you play some system of a down on an sg!
