Nice collection, Sin!
The Elitist is indeed a sweet guitar, and in those pics it shows the white pores that SGManElitist was missing on yours!

Nice guitars. But those Epi LPs really stand out. Maybe I'm just biased. They are lovely though.

Yeah, they only seem to popout in a lot of light, looks pretty cool IMO.

I don't know how to describe SG's all that well, But, the one too the far left in the first pic is beautiful!

But....



It looks like epiphone left off a few frets right above the neck pickup.
(notice the trapezoid right above the pickup ring.)

It looks like they could have added 24 frets.

Did they do this too keep the VOS, or is that just the way it is?

Just curious..

Hah thanks. To answer your question, they could have 24 frets, and just have an overhanging fretboard, but that is where they start the neck joint. LP's have it deeper in, but SG's start pretty much right where the neck meets the body, so the trap is there just so it looks like part of the pickgaurd me thinks.

I see you use the tailpiece as a wraparound as well I love the look of it, and it works.
