is so beautiful. first item on my dream board has been actualized. A vintage white Gibson SG Standard. oh my fucking god. it’s such a nice guitar. It was at Tom Lee for the last few months. I would go in once or twice a week and ask to play it. I have been wanting an SG since I was 13. My friend, Alec had an SG copy and I remember us pretending to be Angus Young in his room with it. I’ve been thinking about it nonestop for the last couple weeks, about actually buying it. and on tuesday i was having a rough day. So i caved and went in and bought it. yay. Just gave it a setup today- oiled the fretboard, polished the finish, polished the metal, put new D’Addario 11-49’s on it, reset the pickups and intonated it. It stays in tune amazingly. epecially considering these are brand new strings. like… it NEVER goes out of tune. rosewood fretboard is my favorite. action is awesome. a slight string buzz still, cause the frets are so warn down. might need a fret dressing in a few months. but otherwise it sounds fucking killer. all those songs that i have been practicing that were 75% there are now 100% there in sound and playability. so stoked.
video shoot yesterday for The Battle, our second single. got doused in buckets of paint. horrible shit to get out of hair. there was a hot young chick there named Sabina. wanna makeout with her bigtime. she’s only 17, though… still weighing my morality.
