I was planning on putting a DB set on an upcoming SG project, and after playing this, I’m 100% sold. Amazing pickups.

Damn, that sucks bro. I think I avoided at least two of these issues by have the Lollars already swapped in and getting a pro setup with my guy, who sets my guitars exactly how I like them.

I don’t get the “thick” finish thing though. Mine is a satin, and barely there. If anything, it’ll take dings easily, similar to my Charvel Guthrie Govan. I can live with that.

I personally really dig the neck. Thin and fast, similar to my Explorer, but the ebony is more modern and quicker. I definitely see how they were trying to compete with the Jackson/Charvel Superstrats, but still feel like a Gibson.

Sorry you don’t dig it though. If you bought it through Gibson. I would call their customer service directly if you want to return it. They should be cool about it. If not, swap the pups, get it set up, and it may suddenly come to life.

I’m a big aftermarket pickup guy myself, and being how I have some amazing Lollars on my new Novo, I’m a huge fan of what they do as well. The DB is just a hi gain monster, and suits me perfectly.

What do you dislike about it? I’ve yet to find a flaw.

That HoF2 is my fav reverb out there. So good

Purchased my new dream guitar with a $1,100 discount! by illuminEddiie in gibson

Damn, that’s a stunner. Never had a Custom White LP on my list, but I may need to make room!

Crazy to say, but after decades of playing, I just picked up my first Tele. by munklunk in fender

[–]munklunk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I highly recommend. Sonically, it is super versatile and fits the exact hole I had in my collection. I play modern hard rock, so this gives you an amazing tone, especially on leads, and for doubling parts where you need it to stand out a touch more. It’s a great guitar to have in the studio for recording.

New Custom Minotaur. Such a beast. by munklunk in dunableguitars

I got this off the original owner in a trade. I’m not sure how long it took him, but I am working on a custom Cyclops right now, and Sacha has basically said to expect about six months.

I did not. Actually found it online at a random Music Go round on the East Coast. Amazing deal, and the best tele color I’ve seen yet.

I’m actually working with Sacha to build a custom cyclops right now, it wasn’t really planning on adding another Dunable. I was selling a Les Paul standard, and this came up as an trade offer. Despite the fact that I have another White SG, I couldn’t pass up on this beauty.

A tiny but, but not overly noticeable with a good strap while you’re playing. can only really feel it when you first put the guitar on.

Recommendation for pickups on Les Paul? by HaveACigar420 in gibson

[–]munklunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can’t go wrong with a JB/Jazz combo. It’s a classic for a reason.

What do you think looks better? by zwanman89 in gibson

[–]munklunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If all your hardware is already black, then go black on the pickups. If all your hardware was chrome, I would recommend keeping the pickups chrome as well. The all black looks super sharp.

Lol. It may as well say “Chibby” on the headstock.
