I do have a #1. I call her Blondie. I've got 5 electric guitars but almost always play this one. I built this in about '95 I think from white oak that made up the sides of a barn in my back yard. The mahogany neck has a V-Shape and I love it.

I have two electrics - a Les Paul Custom and an R7. Currently the Custom is my #1 because the R7 is still new and offgassing. But once the R7 is less smelly it will probably take over.

Great SGs. I should know this but what is 50's wiring? Does that include the treble bleed?

Another reason I do it is to replace the cheap printed circuit board they use these days with quality components. It does make a difference in tone. The treble bleed is something different but can be used with '50s wiring. I've tried it but don't like it. I prefer the fat tone I get from Gibson humbuckers. The treble bleed detracts from that. https://emersoncustom.com/collection...g-prewired-kit |

Wow, I was wrong on two colors, lol. How do you like the Bigsby? Do you use it often? Does it keep tuning stability?

Mine is a 1994 PRS Custom 24, root beer, maple neck, completely stock.
I have about 20 electric guitars, this one fits my hand quite well. My '64 Gibson SG Std. is #2.......... |

As others have said...it depends on the day & my mood. This Core Series PRS 10-top 'Studio' is an incredible all-around versatile guitar, almost perfectly splits the difference between Fender & Gibson (the color is a knock-out, too!)
Then, a while back I ran across a nice deal on a white MIM Strat and I always wanted a white one, so I picked this up and replaced all the hardware and electronics, in particular, I used the Fender Custom Shop "Hot Noiseless"...same pups used by Jeff Beck...so now this one is competing for the #1 spot...second-to-the-least expensive ax in my collection and it gets that Fender mojo in spades!

Right now, I have a PRS CE 24 with in flamed bray black. I really like the guitar and it's the first PRS I've owned. I think I prefer the bolt on to set neck sound different, even though I don't think it's really huge from what i can tell. It's a versatile guitar and I feel like it can do a lot. It seems built well and plays smoothly.
As others have said, it feel between Gibson and Fender in tone which I really like overall. |
