General Guitar
Kai:
Also: Do not buy a guitar just because it's cheapest. An extra 50 bucks can go a loooong way.

I'm gonna have to agree with Les Paul on this one; I think SG's are ugly.
Patrick:
True, the SG doesn't have the aesthetic value that the Les Paul does, and its tone is a bit brighter and the sustain a bit shorter, but you can reach EVERY fret on an SG without any problems whatsoever, while on the Les Paul you'd better have fingers a foot long if you think you're going to reach anywhere above the 17th.
More advice to beginning guitarists: if you think buying a Gibson Les Paul Special is going to suddenly make you able to play every solo in the classic rock world, come over here, let me pull your leg a bit harder.

I don't have one, but looking at them on GIS, it looks like the cut away is flush with the neck all the way to the 20th.

--- Quote from: TrueNeutral ---Advice to beginning guitarists: Don't make the same mistake I did. I bought a guitar with a neck too wide for my hands. I didn't notice it at the shop because I only fingerpicked a couple of things to see how it sounded, but it turns out I can't reach a bunch of chords.

But......My guitar has a massive neck, but after a few years with it I start playing someone else’s normal acoustic and it feels like a fluffy marshmallow neck or something.
So too large neck can = mad skillz on other guitars.
