I like the Natural Satin, the Satin Yellow and the Satin Aquamarine.
Oh the pain!!

Sigh, I was doing so well
Those look nice indeed.
I used to be a Gibson devotee, but in recent years have converted to
Parker. I'm currently playing the single-cut PM20; it has the warmest,
richest tone I've ever heard in an electric this side of a LP studio
lite. Superb action with medium weight strings too.

Satin Blue/Platinum and the Platinum would look nice on my wall. |

My friend is a Parker fanatic and I agree they do sound sweet and the
action is flow through. Its just that I love my SG's way too much to
switch, especially with the modifications I have made to some of them.
I'm still fighting the urge to pick one of these up. |

I wonder if if the maple would be too bright. They are good looking,
though. The carve top SG is good looking, too, but the price tag?
Yikes! |

Actually they are much cheaper than that. On the link it says Gibson's
suggested retail for the Raw Power SG is $1664 but I have made calls
to several Gibson dealers and I can get on for anywhere between $899
to $1100. I'm still fighting the temptation. |

What kind of strings do you usually use?
My Dean Markely 46's are becoming annoying and I'm looking for a
change, something lighter but still bronze wound if possible (I've
become addicted to that clean ring).

It depends on which guitar I am using and for what. For the most part
I use:
GHS Boomers (favorite)
Ernie Ball Beefy Slinky (these r great for drop D tuning)
D'Addario EXL140 XL
The GHS give me that heavy thunder crunch sound that I like so I favor
them a lot. The GHS tend to perform better when I use them combined
with the better tuning pegs and the the stets bar tremolo system
equipped SG. |

As soon I get it back from my guitar tech I'll post a pic. He is doing
a few adjustments for me, the action, tuning pegs, strings and so
forth. |

I have used EB and liked them, but not the beefy slinkys (not sure if
I've even seen those).
I do play a lot of D tuning (not drop D, but tuned to D), so will give
these a shot.
Thanks!
