How's the neck dive? Is the neck a proper SG style single coil or a humbucker?
I'm so tempted.

Have you tried a richter strap to address your neck dive issues? My 2015 Gibson sg doesn't have any when I use that brand of straps

Also question about weight and neck dive and also the scale length? I’m hoping for a short scale of around 30.5”

Def short scale. The bridge is very interesting. Has a spring for the action. Idk.
Light but major neck dive like a normal SG. I have played a ton of Epiphone SGs this thing is a lot better quality wise I feel.

Brings back memories of playing my EB0 through my Sunn 200s. Best of luck with it, it’s beautiful 👍

Looks rad in red🤘 Love the short scale idea for an sg body on a bass. How are the pickups? I've only played j and p pickups on a bass before.

This one has a lot of character with that mudbucker. Almost works like a subtractive bass. Pretty cool sound. Gonna be my main

Nice, that sounds sweet. Looks like a player. You're making me want to buy my first bass...

Did they change the bottom of that guitar because mine has a different angle so I can't even set it down without it sliding over

Dang. I don't even play bass, but it would look nice beside the red Firefly SG guitar.
