Chet, say it ain't so; first time ever disagreeing with you.

Shopped hard and landed a faded brown SG and it is a true sweetheart of a guitar, literally right out of the box. Personal feeling is it's Gibson's version-ish of an American Standard Tele.


The problem with the Faded series always seems to be quality control. Like you said, you can get a really AMAZING instrument, but then again, it may complete crap. With those, you really need to play it before buying instead of going online.

So fenders are a more reliable buy online?

Although i am not a fan of gibson, my acquaitance/friend just seems more inclined to them. I just don't know where else to post this! He currently owns a squier strat, and is getting a les paul on his birthday i think.

But here's where i need your opinion. Should he get the Zakk Wylde (Gibson) model, or if he's willing to spend that much money on something that has an artist's name on it, and just for the name on it and the color, or should he get a studio lp or maybe a classic?

SOrry for the gibson post :roll:

i dont realy like the les paul but if
i had to choose it would be the classic
for the tone.

Personally, 'will not buy a guitar online. NFW. Gotta hold and connect.
