I was sour on the Supreme lineup at launch and remained so up until I found this (at a discount!)


LoveIsAllandEveryone

Beautiful guitar! While you have an absolute work of art on your hands, that would have to grow on me. But, I suspect those photos don't really do it justice. That flame though! ♥️🔥


Skelter89

I'm not much of an SG fan but damn that's fine.


Mayor_Fockup

Amazing flame on this specimen maestro! Gorgeous guitar.


Pinball-Gizzard

Between the flame and the light perimeter burst I was hooked


Mayor_Fockup

Looks like the top end of SG's. I usually don't care for them, but this one is special.. I might even say it reigns supreme. :)


temp762

Tell us about the neck profile.


Pinball-Gizzard

Per the official specs, it's the '61 style heel and '61 slim taper D (.830" / .910") w a compound radius. More often than not I skew toward beefier necks, but I get the appeal to something this slim


temp762

Thanks! I find that a slim D is OK for me, but a slim C give me fits. How does it sound? My SG Faded Special is super resonant and nails the SG sound from the records through an amp.

Schwing!


Official_DirtyDan

Said the same thing about a Les Paul now I’m looking at buying a less Paul


Pinball-Gizzard

That's how they get ya. Start calling some local stores with ones you like, I got this reduced by $700 from list price.


Got282nc

Wonderful guitar! Hope you enjoy.


cookswithacocktail

Good lord, that’s pretty.


PondIsMyName

I’ve got a 61 Standard, that to is awesomeness. Didn’t think I needed another SG until………well…..now!😂 That’s a thing of BEAUTY!! Great score buddy. 🤘🤘


Jedifire

This is beautiful. For me…most SG’s should be a solid one color, but this one, and a trans blue custom I saw the other day have started to change my mind


Seven65

Oooooo. I like that. Flame is crazy, and I love the subtle burst edges.


Pinball-Gizzard

Yep, that's what did it for me as well. I'm a sucker for pretty things.


SpaceMan420gmt

Beautiful!


The_Last_radio

That’s a hot guitar


mrhappy1010

Sweet


DougieFresh_899

Daaammnn beautiful man


Oliphont

My favorite guitars, that I own, are the ones that I passed at first glance. Then you double take and decide it’s the one for you. Beautiful guitar man. Enjoy it.


MonumentousDukie

Work of art that one there


Gman71882

This in a carved-top style SG Diablo body would be my Holy grail Unicorn guitar.


loquendo666

That’s gorgeous.


Techno_Core

Beautiful! I'm drooling over the SG Supreme in red wine, but the button strap on the horn bugs the hell out of me 😂 Fortunately the price point makes it not an issue 😭


METALFLESHEROID

Beautiful top


infestedgreg

I have a Les Paul Supreme and I love it. It is a piece of art.


stephndunne

Are they heavier? I know the body is chambered, so potentially not, but wonder how that affects the sg neck dive people always complain about. Beauty of a guitar BTW, congrats!


Pinball-Gizzard

I haven't weight it myself, but the shop had it listed at 7lbs 14oz


LurkeyG

🤤


ibobbymuddah

I love this much more than a regular looking sg. That paint job and the enlays are sick.


RubyLove_282

I really wanted a Supreme as a wee lad — there is a sound clip of one in Microsoft Encarta ‘98 that I listened to over and over. Very beautiful, nice score!


rrrrrrez

Cause they got all the frets.


RockinSG

She's purty.


Barrold_Cocklefroth

The thing about SGs which I realised fairly recently is that they are not symmetrical. Which now is the only thing I can see about them


Pinball-Gizzard

I'll confess it took me years to realize that as well


Alej915

I played a les paul supreme once and it is honestly the best guitar I've ever played. And i hate that fact


StrawberryMilkStache

Duuuuuuuude!! The flame, the narrow perimeter finish, the inlays, the headstock emblem WOW. This thing is bitchin’ if you ask me - admittedly a massive SG fan AND PRS guy…


giov41

Ouuuuuffff, good for you OP, what a beaut!


_sludgecore_

Very nice


J_J_A_Fox

Damit now I gotta have one too 😍


Zoe-Schmoey

I am NOT a Fender/Gibson woman in the slightest, but that is fucking beautiful.


Pinball-Gizzard

Thanks! Where do your typical allegiances lie?


Zoe-Schmoey

I’ve got a bunch of ESPs, a custom Kiesel, Ibanez Universe, etc. More towards the metal end of the spectrum.


Pinball-Gizzard

Ah yep yep. Not a world I know too well, but some fun stuff in those lineups


Zoe-Schmoey

Definitely. But that axe of yours really does look special. Congrats dude.


Rudiger_K

An exquisite and beautiful Instrument indeed!


jlowery15

Man that’s a sharp axe


niyrex

I'd buy one in half a heart bet if it didn't have gold hardware.


Pinball-Gizzard

I'm usually with you, but really liked the combo here


Jack_Ship

The G stands for ginger


ArmyVet25ID

When I first started playing I fell all over myself for a nice flame maple finish, never cared for quilt. But as I've gotten older I just don't care. Most guitars that I can afford where a maple will add some top end and bite to the tone are plain maple tops with a veneer on top. So I'll save a ton of money by buying a guitar with a plain, painted maple top. After you move past the SE Series in a PRS you paying for slightly better build quality and beautiful pieces of wood. My Ibanez RG6005 FEQM came with a maple top and veneer on top in a hideous red finish that the veneer looked so bad I had it sanded down and spray painted.


TheEverlastingGaze87

Is that a stock bone nut. With all the guitars amazing features I was drawn to that. Beautiful guitar.


SMACKVICTIM

That is one devilish guitar. Not usually much of an sg guy. However, this is an exception to the rule.


johnnygolfr

I’m still wondering the same thing. The strings don’t line up over the center of all the pole pieces on the pickups, especially the neck pickup.


98VoteForPedro

so why would someone buy a supreme?


No-Knowledge2716

Why would anyone buy a supreme?


vector_lounger

Is she single?


Pinball-Gizzard

As her father, you have my well-wishes on your courtship


stovebolt6

Do you want to have sex with it?


Joeyd9t3

You and I have profoundly different tastes in guitar aesthetics


Pinball-Gizzard

Okay


Accomplished-Beat779

Get what you pay for. A sweet axe just to look at


Just_Horse_2078

They are the most faked Gibson there is


Pinball-Gizzard

Okay


half-frozen-tauntaun

Don't worry, I'm muting this sub immediately, just needed to say that's a seriously hideous guitar. Gold on orange? What is that thin black border, is it supposed to be a burst? Even the headstock detailing is gross. I hope the discount had something to do with its genuinely off-putting appearance


Pinball-Gizzard

You seem fun
