The weird thing about that...I used to have two '''SG's''', a white one and a black one, which was really rare. One of those '''SG''''s I had painted and it didn’t come out right, it came out pink. And I was like, ‘Oh, I can’t play a pink guitar.’ So I had the guy paint it blue. I had a number of '''SG'''s but the last '''SG''' I owned was sold by the woman who tour managed Tony Williams Lifetime...while I was out in the country. He didn’t get paid so he took my guitar and sold it, and I couldn’t get it back. There was nothing I could do about it. It was sold and was just hanging up there in the shop. And I was like, ‘Jeez, I gotta buy my own guitar.’ That was a blue '''SG''' with two pickups. | ||
