It seems like one of those Grecos has since been sold. That white Edwards one is calling my name...

Yeah, I had contacted them a few times to no avail. No big deal. Still looking around...

I haven't been able to get a hold of these guys... :-( This price is about $200 less than most other companies. Maybe a case of "If it's too good to be true..."?

http://www.guitarcojp.com/product-p-3389 I'm trying to figure out if this company takes order from the U.S., it's a REALLY good price!

I'm still KICKING THE CRAP out of myself for not taking you up on that one. As I remember, it even had Fralins in it, didn't it?

Even after buying a newer Gibson SG Junior Tribute and a Gibson SG Classic within the last 15 months or so, I'm still GAS-ing pretty hard for an SG Special with a smaller pickguard. I know that Tokai has the USG-P90 and Edwards now has a E-SG-90LT2/P that have the specs I'm looking for: SG...

http://www.j-guitar.com/product_id297609.html It seems like a good deal to me, but don't have any experience ordering from Japan! Am I missing something here? I've used Google Translate and it seems like there's just some sort of ding on the back of the headstock but don't see any other...

*BUMP* for changed specs desired.

OK, I'm changing the specs on this a little bit. I had originally been looking for a white or Pelham Blue SG, but now I'm opening it up a little bit in hopes of just snagging a nice MIJ SG standard. I'm looking for a Cherry, White or Pelham Blue SG style guitar. Dual humbuckers, small...

I've put a bid in on the Burny SG. Hopefully it'll work out!

Ha ha! I like taht Tweedy video and have seen it before. Gah, I want that Tone King amp too! Just to update everyone, after weighing all of the pros and cons between: Gibson 50th Anniv. Townshend SG Bacchus SG Special Tokai SG Special Tokai SG Junior Gibson SG Junior 60's I ordered a Cherry...

Yeah, I've thought about that very thing. It's still a possibility but I don't do that sort of work myself aside from basic soldering. (And to be honest, with a toddler around I don't have much time to even do that!) I like the idea of the gold sparkle SG!

"Whats wrong with the bevelling? And is the neck bound? And Clive Brown would probably make you an incredible SG - he really likes Juniors especially." The beveling (to me at least) on the bass side of the guitar is never deep enough. The neck isn't bound, but that doesn't bother me as much...

I've only listened to Wilco sparingly. I think I have Yankee Hotel Foxtrot on CD somewhere. To be honest, I can't completely remember where my Pelham Blue obsession came from. I just think it looks AWESOME on SG's and to a slightly lesser degree, Firebirds. Buying that Epi last year (Pelham...

I'll try to take a pic of it sometime today. In the meantime here's a different photo I found online of it: I changed the tuners on mine to green keystone style (from another Epi) and changed the knobs to black speed knobs. I also had a set of Dimarzio Air Classic (vintage style, low output...
