No factory warranty applies.Ĭopyright 2005 sheltonsguitars. Shelton’s Guitars is not an authorized Gibson/Epiphone Dealer. A new one will cost you $998 in superstores IF you can find one. As near as I can tell, the Raw Power SG has been discontinued. The Raw Power SG offers a new take on the SG formula. The gigbag has a little speration at the top of the zipper but still functions fine. Straight from the stockroom! As nice or nicer than most hanging in the superstores! Comes in a gigbag. It was leftover stock from a local store and shows only light shopwear. This is a NEW OLD STOCK condition guitar. This is a great opportunity to grab a killer instrument. The pickups sound great and deliver tons of tone. Both the Les Paul Studio Raw Power and SG Raw Power feature unbound solid maple bodies, with a traditional carved top on the former. Brighter than your average SG, it excels at a variety of music. It looked pretty sharp, with its maple body and neck and its funky paint job. A hip guitar that reminds me of some of Gibson's unsung 70s classics! I was in a local guitar shop today and noticed a Gibson Raw Power LP hanging on a rack. Cool features include a smoked acrylic pickguard. The finish is a raw satin lacquer that really lets the tone out. A Stopbar tailpiece, Tuneomatic bridge and Kluson style tuners keep it rock solid. The 24.75 inch scale maple neck features a maple fingerbaord with dot inlays and trapezoid at the 12th fret. The body is all maple and features the trademark SG devil horn outline and bevels.
Ps- try not to tear a guitar apart when you dont have any firsthand experience with it, or any Gibson for that matter.Stripped down and ready to rock! The SG Raw Power combines the classic SG look with the bite and sustain of all maple construction. Im really thinking about installing a vibramate and popping a bigsby on this beast, but Im not 100% convinced that it'd be worth it for me. This SG may be the most versatile axe in my collection, and I am still loving it.
#GIBSON RAW POWER SG FULL#
I work at a Gibson dealer that carries the full line of electrics and acoustics (including custom shop pieces), so i have seen and played just about every current model Gibby in production. Im glad there is a lot of interest in this model, and i hope that the "traditionalists" will let go of their preconceptions and try something new. I play thru a 65 Twin Reverb Reissue and multiple boutique-ish pedals for overdrive/distortion etc. I love the P90s but I feel that one guitar with them is plenty for me! Ive been dying to have some 57's which sound awesome, very well balanced and capable of capturing all kinds of tones. In reference to the suggestion of spending a few more dollars to get the SG Classic- It did tempt me but one of my LPs has P90s. Hey guys I will be sure to post pics as soon as I get them taken.Im waiting for a nice day outside to do a decent photoshoot with all of my guitars. The maple BODY throws me off.if it had a mahogany body and a maple NECK then would be just fine as your still getting most of ur tone out of the mahogany.my sg has a maple neck/mahogany body and ive played maybe a dozen or so SGs with mahogany/mahogany and i dont hear the difference.but with the maple body its going to sound more like a fat strat than an sg personally I am pissed off that this model wasnt available 6 months ago as I would have looked at it very seriously.
many people have called for Gibson to reconsider the mahogany neck on the SG as mahogany isn't really suitable and they break too easily. Well not all gibsons are or have always been. So the only reall issue is that it isnt mahogany. The Raw power comes with (I think) 57s which are very much a traditional Gibson pickup. P90s on a classic is a great combo I grant you but some people dont want P90s. Well' date=' I would have liked to see a maple neck on a mahogany body but this is a "real" Gibson and from the sound of it a far better made guitar than the faded specials.
