Gibson SG Fusion

Post by Freddy V-C »

Anyone else seen these? New for 2017 apparently. I love the fucked up pickguard shape, and this colour scheme in particular looks wild:

Price doesn't look tooo bad either, although it's a long while before I'll be in the market for another new guitar unfortunately.

Actually digging that. Love the pickguard and I'm a big fan of the bridge and dot inlays on that.

This is the best color scheme for these. Much better than the same ole black or cherry.

I really like the look of this SG. Headstock looks a bit odd, but other than that it looks promising. Black or blue would be cool. Not really a huge red guitar fan (with the exception of CAR and Competition Red)

Looks like the US has more colours than the UK at the moment. Thomann is the only place I could order one from so far and they've only got them in white or some gross shade of orange. PMT has a lot of colours listed but nothing actually available to order.

There's a PMT like 10 minutes walk from my house. I'm hoping they'll get a couple of these in so I can play them and then they turn out to be terrible. That's the ideal situation for me right now because I want one so badly and I 100% cannot afford...

The Black on black model has got a touch of the Iommi's.
Looks good, I like the wrapover bridge as well. It would b e my preferred choice on any Gibson type guitar.
