SG Double Neck

Post by Tiglitar »

Hey guys,

So my son wanted a sg double neck style guitar for ages but they are so pricey, we decided to get a kit from Pitbull in Aus. Came out alright, a crap load of wiring and soldering to do on it but all works great.

It seems to be a better quality kit than I have previously seen.

We did the body in Danish oil and he is pretty happy with the results.

Its ok actually, but I think after a setup and decent strings it will be better, the strings are the ones that come with the kit and two of them already broke while we were putting them on, they are pretty crap.
