New Maple Board LP and SG Line








Not my thing but someone here may be interested

List is $1800 for the LP and $1600 for the SG.
24 frets on the SG

Yes, the SG picture is labeled LP and the LP picture is labeled SG

Re: New Maple Board LP and SG Line


I don't know if I can quite get into it. Definitely not the SG line. I do like the green LP, though.

LP's seem pretty bright and middy to me, I don't quite know what a maple board would do...

Re: New Maple Board LP and SG Line


Looks like the whole body is maple with a mahogany neck on the LP, the SG is all maple.

Re: New Maple Board LP and SG Line


With black block inlays, or pearloid ones like the ZW version, I think they'd be pretty cool. But those look kinda plain. The black headstock kind of puts me off as well . . . I'm not sure why cause it kinda makes sense . . . . but they look kinda cheap.

I also read that on the gibson site. Well call me stupid, but where are the 23rd and 24rd frets?

All the available colours are beyond gimp, I'll leave it until the maple neck is available on a cherry sunburst or tobacco burst Les Paul Standard.

Re: New Maple Board LP and SG Line


I'd buy one the natural SG for sure if I had the money. Very pretty, i think.

For some reason, I can't upload my Kisekae guitar onto Photobucket, but I made my dream SG has a maple board. I think they look nice. They are guitars, let them be in their beauty.
