How could I forget, Zappa loved 'em!!djimbe wrote:What??? No mention of Mr. Zappa as an SG fan? He was a devout player if the pictures from the '70s are any indication. I know shit about guitars, but I've always loved the extreme double Florentine cutaway look. The devilish horns just say RAWK to me. I like the EB4 for the same reason...
You wanna know someting really funny, that walnut SG he used during the 70's was NOT an actual Gibson, but a lovingly crafted replica made and given to him by a fan in Arizona. The main difference between it and a normal Gibson was the fact it had one more fret than a standard SG. This was Frank's fave guitar for much of the 70's!
