Bass, surely you are not suggesting that the SG has in some way an imperfection?? i thought not….. 😆
They did a new LP for the 90’s, it was called a BluesHawk, anyone remember them? i never did play one, the spec looked good though, quite nice on the eye too, people just want classic Gibsons.
I think that most of the guitar manufacturers know that the key to their future is to get young respected guitarists to endorse the ‘newer’ models, the newer models are mostly purchased by younger players, and in years to come those models will go on to become the classics, as far as i can remember, the i never did see anyone play a Blueshawk, i saw a few pictures of older guitarists posing with them, but none actualy played them.
I personaly dont like the PRS ideology, Wasp might say that Brazilian rosewood on the fingerboard enhances guitar tone over its sister Indian rosewood, but i think it’s just eliteism, alot of what PRS does goes on the presentation, and i suppose im just not into that.
But saying that, i can recognise that they do sound great, ive played a good few, and i can hear real good guitar tone when i play it, great feel too, but way too expensive.
