Who makes an SG type guitar?

[1trussell]

Besides Gibson and Epiphone, who else makes a traditional SG style guitar? I know ESP has the Viper, but that's offset a little. Does Guild still make their version? Who else?

Guild used to make one, I think it was called a Polaris. It's not on their website at all. Kim from Soundgarden played them for a long time.

Yeah, I knew they did. But I wasn't sure if they still did or not.

Polara S100. I don't think they're too much used.

Agile made one that looked just like a SG but they are rare.

The Guy from Soundgarden (Kim Thayil) played them, I ran a Guitar Shop around the time they reissued them...They were good, not great, and were less than $700 dealer cost back then. I had a hard selling through the 3 I had.

I always loved those Yamahas! Gary from Exodus used to play one back in the day. Ibanez also makes a version, I think it's called the Artist.

+1 for GMP. Just wish they'd offer a short scale.
