Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, . That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, and you're a regular participant, then just ask theBuddha, or myself.

If you do know what's going on, you are most likely either new here or completely retarded, you probably don't need to click that link - but you may want to, to make sure you know of the other features, such as the archive or a separate forum that's invite only.

Remember, we are guests here on Poal. Let's act like it. If you're interested in supporting Poal, then .

NOTE: Next weekend is going to be the Halloween version of the FNGT, so come up with something scary for all the kids.

Thats ridiculously expensive

A top of the line guitar in the 1950's costed $275, to be able to get something that plays better for the same amount of dollars 70 years later is almost incomprehensible

That'd be like 2k in 2022 dollars, maybe a bit more. So, they're kinda on-par with current prices?

If I had to try to price this guitar, as though it had a Gibson name on the headstock (for real), I'd probably say it's easily in the 4k region.

I'm legit impressed by the quality of this Chibson SG.

Think you could pass it off as a true Gibson and have people believing it?

I plan on putting the right truss rod cover on it.

I haven't checked, but it'd only pass as a Gibson if they buyer didn't know what they're talking about.

To prove it's not a Gibson, just open the control panel. I guarantee the pots and resistors are different than what Gibson uses. The back of the tuners is also different.

They could also check the nut, which is plastic.

So, someone not wise to the ways of Gibson would be easily fooled. I would not be fooled.

You could probably open up and look at the back of the pickups. I suspect that won't match.
