Gibson SG Review




Gibson SG guitar is a close relative Gibson Les Paul guitar. Having a sound similar to the Les Paul but not as good sustain owned by Les Paul. again the guitars made by Gibson still has the advantage in the field of sustain compared to other guitar manufacturer. Having sustained a fair amount of time and a shrill voice snaking that can make our bodies go, too twisted to hear ^ _ ^ hehe.




According to my assessment (which is of course relative), the design of this guitar at a glance more attractive and looks more frightening when compared with the Les Paul or other guitar. Looks more manly especially when we gig at night with a hard rock rendition. Sometimes this guitar also gives the impression of the gothic, eerie, and mystical in appearance we see from the original color of a dark red, is my personal opinion hehe
 ^ _ ^, even my friend who told me this guitar is the theme, such as bats ... (Either in terms of where he saw it but everyone remains free to comment right?). It has a double cutaway, two humbucker, the top is flat and solid body. Solid body seems to play an important role to sustain, which of course makes this guitar is relatively heavier than other guitars, just not as heavy as a Les Paul, a little thinner than the Les Paul. With three selector switch, two volume and two tone control.




Some famous people who play this guitar like Frank Zappa, Tony Iommy from Black Sabbath, Angus Young of AC / DC, and colleagues. I once tried to play this guitar, which I can almost feel like when I play a Les Paul.




This guitar will appear extraordinary when you add a little sound distortion but with the addition of a pitched-winding game squeaked by you. This guitar is suited for hard rock songs and may also lead to metal rock and a little underground (because in terms of design also supports this), with the fingerboard a little easier for us to play the melody quickly accompanied by far-reaching. Although some people who have big fingers might feel a little trouble playing this guitar.




Imagine yourself wearing all black, carrying the symbols of the mystical, gothic dress as a tomb if necessary, setting the stage band with the armature and the burst of fire all around you ... and you brought the songs hard rock or underground ... some people might immediately consider you as a "man of the stage", even before you play one note too ^ _ ^ hehe. Maybe this is the dream of every person who wants to feel when playing this guitar (including me when you first play it and still be a dream ... T_T).




Adjectives that might describe the sound of this guitar are: ringing, stinging, and gunslinging. Yes more or less my opinion like this and make this guitar as my second favorite guitar as melodian. What a cool Gibson SG!!!


Advantages:


1. Having sustain above average.


2. Distance between the fret fingerboard and small game easier for us to explore the melody.


3. Enhance the haunted, gothic, and the mystical in our appearance.




Weaknesses:


1. Has above average weight.

Gibson Les Paul Review





Gibson Les Paul, first appeared in 1952. Designed by a guitarist whose name is printed on the guitar. Previously using a single coil pickup, but in 1957 was replaced by a humbucker. There are various types such as the Gibson Les Paul Junior, Gibson Les Paul Special, Gibson Les Paul Deluxe, and his friends, but the most frequently used (and certainly the most famous) is a Gibson Les Paul Standard and Gibson Les Paul Custom.


The design of this guitar is actually included normal, but highlight the impression of classical and blues on our performance in my opinion. If at first glance in terms of color, for Guitar Gibson Les Paul original, wrapped in brown wood with grooves on the body who showed classic impression. This guitar uses solid body (which was originally made of mahogany) because the les paul wanted this guitar has sustain 20 seconds. Of course, for wearing the solid body, making this guitar almost 2 times heavier than the guitar in general. There are two humbucker pickup selector switch with three controllers plus two volumes and two tone controls.

There's another hallmark of this guitar, ie the distance between the fingerboard and frets are small, it is easier for us to play fast and melodic melodies that require long range. It has side effects, namely those who fingered big bit difficult to use ... I use this guitar and was lucky I did not see a significant constraint because my finger "tapering" hahaha.
