Your take on LESPAUL vs SG

[hullabalooeeks]

Why do people always say lespaul is the more versatile piece of equipment?

 

[jeremyrozario]

for me i hate the sg for the neck strap button placement

 

[jasonlefort]

i prefer the les paul for the nice chunky neck like on those les paul customs...feels nice too me...lolz...

 

[shreddedsweeper]

i will take a sg over lp. My opinions. Mainly because i prefer the lighter body, and easy access to higher fret, and its abit too common holding a lp.

 

[crozzfire]

i would take the sg too..cant stand the weight of a LP man..i would never take the LP on a gig unless its really a short gig..if not my shoulders would die from carrying the LP for so long :lol:

 

[subversion]

LP vs SG is a desperate attempt to choose IMO.

these 2 guitars are good in their own turf. they have their strength/ short-comings. Les Paul more versatile? i prefer SG.

 

[ciel21]

Differernt Guitars, different feel. im more of a LP person, SGs are a bit neck heavy for me although the high fret access is good.

 

[DarknessFury]

I don't like where SG's button is placed...so maybe LP...

 

[ShredCow]

And LP looks more "right" with a floyd, than an SG. Does that make sense?

 

[subversion]

floyd, eh? i find the MIII models with them are pleasant looking.

 

[ShredCow]

DUDE.

Well, okay, no surprise you know abt them Gibson MIII models.

They are apprently some fine shredding machines! Nice nice stuff that goes for low prices if the owner doesn't know how much they are really worth.

I love the idea of an LP with a Floyd....

 

[subversion]

the MIII got me excited some time back. however, Ibanez guitars are too good/ influential to ignore. in the realm of the floating vibrato unit, Ibanez is always tops on my list.

Neal Schon is the model for u!!!

Hey Sub, I know what you mean... when it comes to the floyds, Ibanez tops them all!

Metallibeast, I know of that. but for the price... sheesh! :wink:

 

[bin4christ]

LP vs SG..any diff in terms of sound?

 

[subversion]

definite difference.

big bottom end- LP. the SG simply cannot replicate this. more defined midrange- SG, but it depends on the pickups on board.

 

[nickyseow]

but.. wrt to low ends with the LP,
i think you can change the pickups on the sg to give you the LOW end wad, such as a dimarzio Breed neck pu..

 

[jony]

Well, there is only so much the pickups can do.

I am sure by slapping thos Breed's in, it will sound closer to a LP but wont "respond" the same way.

 

[nickyseow]

true true..












gas for eternity.

 

[ItAcHi]

ya...y would u wanna make a SG sound similar to a LP?? that totally defeats the purpose of buying a SG aint it?...
