No anger here- I just think it looks good in certain applications and not so good in others. I'm one of the evil people who picks ebonol/richlite over anything made of real wood so my tastes are controversial anyway.

I see it's a Saito but what is that? It's really cool but I can't tell if it's paint, some kind of like gold leaf thing or some alien wood I've never seen before lol

I'll see if I can figure that out. I just know it's the guitarist from Coldrain's sig model. I like how the string choices are either for drop d or drop a# stock. 2 piece Alder body with Thin Matte Urethane & Closed Finish. Can't find info about a top.

Man, I got SG GAS real bad, aesthetically I love them, I just now they play like shit when standing up (supposedly Gibsons are better in the that regard than Epis).

I feel this. Been looking for an SG-3 reissue from the 2007-2008 (I think) run for awhile for a not insane price. I keep trying to find out who bought David Gold from Woods Of Ypres SG3 that he sold before he died, but no luck yet.

I love that colour scheme. The natural binding on the neck really brings it together. Too bad it's an SG and not one of the, like, two specific guitars I actually put my money towards.

Using the right kind of strap (well setup) can help considerably with SG designs. Not a problem with my ESP Viper, although the design still has an odd feel by nature.....

Yeah, I might honestly buy one and just relocate the strap pin to the wing and use a 3" cliplok; not like I practice standing up THAT much anyways, but still something in the back of my mind.

I'll die before I use a suede strap that grips my shirt or anything.
