I bought one of those for $100 with the case at a pawnshop in about 1979. Not long after, I installed Grovers and a BadAss bridge, as we did back then. Great guitar! Sold it to Guitar Center in 1982 for $250 and was thrilled that I made money on it. Now, I view that decision differently!!!
My brother had one too. Similar story, got it in ‘78 and it already had the Grovers and Badass. It was the first Gibson guitar I ever held. I told friends at school about it, and one asked “How many pickups?” When I said 1 he said “That’s all?!” Guess he hadn’t heard about EVH’s guitar. 😁 My brother sold it for about $200. I did recently pick up a like new used 2019 SG Junior. Thin neck and the pick guard is slightly different. But it sure reminds me of that ‘64 my brother had. 😊
Mark, I really appreciate the way you interview these guys, everything feels chill and personal. The Collection is my favorite series of anything on RU-vid, I appreciate all of the work you guys and gals put into this show. Please do an episode with Jeff Tweedy at The Loft, I love his SG!
Tom Petty in an interview once said that this solo was done in one take. I feel better now. Thats not only one of the best Heartbreaker solos its one of the best solos in all of rock n roll. A masterpiece. This interviewer is more interested in the bridge bolt holes than the magical solo. He seems kind of dim witted.
Man, I grew up in the wrong era / generation. I could not imagine being a musician back then and being able to just walk into a frigin video store and grab multiple Gibsons for just a few hundred bucks.
@@Dreyno Hello! I didn't write about a specific model, but in principle. I wanted to say that a talented guitarist only needs one pickup to play great.
This guy has a serious case of GAS. as if it makes a difference what guitar he used to play Pettys great songs. He could have used a squire and it would have made no difference at all. All this stuff is just a hobby. It has no bearing on making music and writing songs. In fact it’s a distraction to both. Why a shitty little cheaply made guitar with a broken neck costs so much money and is spoken about so much is beyond me. Cause it was built in 62. So what? We attribute value to the strangest things.
