Went Christmas shopping over the weekend in London and visited Denmark Street. In one of the shops the guy said that they're selling the gibson's off cheap due to the new 2013 range being released. I picked up this standard SG with a 60's profile neck and coil taps.
Plays and sounds brilliantly.

Sounds great so far, need to take it to rehersal on Friday to give it a run through the Marshall, I'm sure it's gonna sound great though.

So I've just got back from rehearsals and I took this guitar to give it a good test at volume.
I was amazed a how warm sounding it is, the coil taps give it some great variations in it's tone and mixing one pickup tapped and the other not also gives great variations.
This is easily one of my highest ranking guitars for versatiltity, I'm really pleased with it. It must've sounded impressive, the other guitarist in our band wanted it off me lol.
