:) No comment ;), no, a comment, I suspect you're aware about what I'm
talking about ;). The fingerboard is more like a classical guitar, than
a Stratocaster or Stratocaster alike guitar and all SG humbuckers from
different ages have a special unique sound _and_ a Schaller M6 Mini or
derivative definitively is better than an original (Conclusion or what
ever is the name) opened SG mechanic.
