That is how an SG should look. Bit of Angus Young. Bit of Ferrari ;-)

exactly they got to be that reddy brown like back in the 60's I've been after 1 for a while I'm eyeing off another 1 but its new, also looking at buying a small valve head but don't know what to buy its either a Marshall dsl20hr, Blackstar ht20 studio, a bugera 20watt, or the 5watt blackstar or the 5 watt bugera ive got a 412 cab would like to run my line6 amplif TT

got some of my upgrades for the Strat I got a Wilkinson 52mm delux bridge I got a set of Artist wrangler pick up but had broken wire on the middle pickup which they are sending a new 1, still waiting on the Locking tuners and new nuts, the bridge is nice and weighty should be better setting up the term and stay in tune as was terrible I got 6 packs of EB slinky 9-46 strings so will replace all the strings on all my guitars, I've got 3 sets of locking tuner for my Les Pauls looking forward to finishing the Strat as I miss a good Strat the term arm is a push in with grub screw feels good and not flopping around I will do the same to all my Strats heres a few picture ill order a couple of Tele kits next week and looking for a super start with Floyd rose

Yeah looks sweet.. and sweet guitars deserve sweet hardware to go with it!
I do like Wilkinson gear.. I wouldn’t mind opening a line of hardware that’s more than just Babicz… don’t get me wrong, they are spectacular gear, but they cost it. Wilkinson is a good middle ground I feel, better than stock, but not as dear as FCH.
I found Wilkinson Tele bridges in the misc pile, if you want one Phrozin. They’re on the store.

A man after my own heart! I think the idea of adding hardware that is high quality but won't break the bank is a great idea. Wilkinson is the go-to for hardware that is high quality but not deadly expensive.

FWIW Sung-Il in Korea makes bridges for Wilkinson, TonPros and Babicz, but also makes bridges under their own name that are well above average in quality, and well below average in price for quality hardware. I have their bridges on three of my basses.

I have also had really good luck with tuners from Tone Ninja and Hipshot that are made in Korea, that are great without being nearly as expensive as their US counterparts. Again... FWIW.
