I'm not a huge SG fan, but I am a huge fan of the three pickup LP Custom SG. For years, I've had one on my list of dream guitars. Maybe when I hit the lottery. I didn't realize Burny made a copy, but I should have guessed. Love those upgrades. I bet its an incredible guitar now.

SG = best Gibson

I love this. Not too keen on triple humbucker customs, but I do love the white and gold.

Sorry for the zombie bump, but I was wondering how you covered up the holes from the tailpiece? The Maestro doesn't cover those, does it?

I covered mine with a piece of brown electrical tape. Not invisible up-close, but hardly noticable from the audience (I left the studs in it).
