New SG day!
Been craving something different to my strat for a while. Different recording flavours and a reason to play differently to how i usually play my gear.
2010 SG Special. My first step into the Gibson world. Better than i expected it to be. Apologies for the dark photo, it didnt come out too well.
EDIT - Guitar and i did not bond. Now up for sale.

I have literally no idea if this is a "good" SG in the grand scheme of life, its the first one iv played aside from an Epi like 5 years ago. But i enjoy it so who cares! Lol

Looks nice, I actually don't particularly like the binding over frets on the higher end Gibsons so the special looks great to me.

An SG is
fait accompli to be good, unless it doesn't hold tune or set up sloppy.

Personally never met a “bad” SG!
(Unless maybe some of the imposters, but they’re not real so don’t count...)

That a John Birch? Had a DC of his once.
Edit. It's a John Diggins (JD). He made Mark King's basses.

I had John Birch build me a custom SG in 71. Had a Strat trem fitted so extra thick body, maple board , 24 fret, stereo electrics. Worst neck dive imaginable and heavy as fuck. Ended up practically giving it away to a shop down Charing Cross road. Never commissioned a build since.

Well. Didnt last long.
Anyone wanna buy? Offers around 1k with the Gator molded abs case. I got it for $1050 and its done nothing since i got it.
After getting it, restring, setup and a bit of a play, realised its really not my thing. Im a Strat guy through and through.
Will also trade with cash either way for a nice HW Vox AC15 or Fender 68 DRRI...

Yes, the great John Diggins, or Jaydee
I had a Strat made by him. It was awesome. Had a through neck, just like his basses. Wish I had kept it

Would that be the JD Hooligan?

No, it was a very traditional looking Strat, except for the through neck. He only made a handful like that.
At one point I called him up to ask for details, he's a really helpful bloke.
