There's too much shite on it and SGs all feel like they're made from tin.
Do not want.

Finding out that Sister Rosetta Tharp had one like this has immediately changed my mind. I take back everything.

First thought - Wow, a guitar company actually coming up with a something new and interesting.
Second thought - Oh.. It's the same as one in a video from 1964. Normal service has resumed.
Third thought - Well, at least Sister Rosetta Tharpe is always worth a watch.

It's purdy. But the question is if people are going to need to take a second mortgage out to obtain one. It's as if Gibson almost doubled their prices.

Looking at what the weather's doing right now, I can't think of a better song to be listening to. Rosetta FTW.
It's not the first time I've seen a reverb handle on an SG (e.g. Michio Kurihara) but haven't seen that type in a long time. I'm not sure how it would be to use.
That guitar really is a beautiful thing though. Maybe the extra hardware and shininess at the tailpiece end help with the old SG top-heaviness issue too?

Jimi had an SG with 3 pickups too but his was a later model with a different vibrola
You can skip ahead to 3:38 in the video below if you want to see Jimi.
