Gibson SG Voodoo, made in USA 2004. This is so cool. When it arrived, the first I noticed was the awesome red snakeskin case... it's really quite something. These Voodoo models were made briefly from 2002-4, after the first round of Gothic models but before the second. There's some cool cosmetic touches: black over red TV finish, so the red bleeds through the black along the swamp ash grain lines, single ply black '66 style batwing guard, ebony board, black tuners and bridge, cute little cartoon skull inlay... it's got that kitsch goth-punk aesthetic absolutely nailed. This one has had some fun mods: a Bigsby tailpiece and a pair of covered 490 humbuckers dropped in. The ash body makes this a little snappier in the attack with a more pronounced high-end and high midrange than a standard SG. The 490s are a relatively dark pickup, so they balance out the grindiness of hte ash body nicely. These are increasingly collectible and in all original shape are starting to fetch $3k+, so if you're after a super cool guitar and you still wear a big fringe and listen to My Chemical Romance, this one is for you.
