Cme is 10 minutes away from my house. I would pop in more but im poor. I have thought about if its possible to record a whole ep there without them knowing.
@@lukewilson1012 are you kidding me? In my country we don't even have real music stores. to see someone holding a Gibson or fender here is a big event lol
I have the coral one from the last run. Easily best sg Ive ever owned. I've owned and toured with many from every era. Fully recommend, if anyones on the fence.
@@loupoprocky3417 yea! Not sure why they discontinued it. Must not have sold well. Love the olive and the yellow as well. Glad you were able to grab one!
Man, I’ve got a preorder in for an oxblood one and am getting a little impatient. Apparently there’s no ETA on theM and Gibson isn’t really communicating well with CME.
@@timeconsumer325 yeah I just ordered the shell pink for my bday, but didn't quite realize till recently how long these wait times are.. yikes, the anticipation might kill me
I have a '79 Les Paul Custom with T-Tops from April and June 1979. These pickups honestly sound just like them. They're actually very bright (at least in that guitar). It took me by surprise the first time I heard them. I had never heard a bright Gibson! Love them now b/c nothing else sounds like them. Sharpness from Alnico V but maintaining vintage output with that gritty treble bite. Love 'em.
I love SG's....always have, always will!!! I love these new colors and the dark finger boards with the 70's style square block inlays! The 61 style pick guard really sets the look of these off as well! I am surprised the T-top pick-ups sound so much better than the normal pick-ups.....I have a batwing pick guard Standard like the one they played as a comparison and I really like the T-tops!!!! Wow!
Love this!!! Lucky enough for me I live in Chicago! Huge fan and patron of CHICAGO MUSIC EXCHANGE. You guys tore it up today!!! Capt. Lee your lead riffs are really getting heavy Brother! Hats off! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I am in heaven a video all on Gibson SGs! Well done Captain and Pete, great video! Thankyou! I've been a fan of SGs for almost 28 years and still have my Standard in Heritage Cherry I bought brand new in 1994 (about $750 in them days and even then that was a good chunk of change especially for a 22 year old young man!). I'm a huge fan of the SG and if I could only play one type of guitar the SG would more than suit my needs. I have three different versions and love them all. These new ones you played sound great and come in some cool colors! I like the olive green and yellow one as well as the Ox Blood version. But man great playing and thank you!!!
You’re so right Lee!! Nathaniel Murphy is a Brilliant guitarist. Nice guy too. You guys and CME are doing so much to promote playing the guitar at the moment. Vegan Oxblood please.
I ordered one of the olive green ones from Andertons, having loved these when I first saw CME do them. It is brilliant. I really like the leather gig bag too.
I have a Les Paul Custom and a 355 from the 70s with T-types (T-buckers) they are really great - so if anybody is considering these SGs - those pick ups are really great - I have had these 2 guitars since they were new and have never wanted to get sell them
Dang... I've been off SGs (and honestly, Gibsons in general) for 20 years, but now I want an oxblood and a TV yellow or shell pink. These sound incredible.
Bought one of those Andertons - Chicago Music Exchange Strats and man It's probably best spent money ever! You can't go wrong with it. It beats my Elite Strat sound wise in any position.
The SG has a nice snarl to it that seems fairly unique. I've almost bought one several times, but I struggle with the neck - the first fret "seems" far away, almost like a bass. It's probably all in my head - I'd probably get used to it. They sound amazing.
It’s all mental mate I thought the same thing a while ago + was worried about its infamous neck dive issues and now I have at least two in my rack permanently. Where the neck joins the body turns out to be one of the best design elements The access is fantastic so much better playing sitting down that a les Paul and standing up the body is so thin and light you can play them for hours Seriously stop,thinking about it and buy one mate you won’t regret it
SGs are under rated. Wanted one since I was 13 (because Angus) and finally got one at 44. It's a shame that they're ONLY associated with AC/DC and playing slide. More brightness and bite, more comfortable, better upper fret access than a Les Paul. You can get a nice sparkly clean sound out of them if your amp isn't dialed into the mud but you almost never hear them played that way. Kinda Gibson's Tele because you really can play anything on it.
Just wanted to say, I do have that version of the regular standard sg and I believe Gibson states on their website that those are their 490t and 490r pick ups, just if anyone was curious. Iv had the experience after mine hearing the 61 standard to sound a bit dark like I couldn't brighten it up with the tone controls either. Love me an sg, to a nerdy degree lol.
The Standard used to have 500T and 496R ceramics, but that may have changed. '61 reissue had Classic '57s and the Studio, Special, and Classic had 490T and 490R. I thought those were muddy as hell. Apparently you can make them brighter and more full/articulate by swapping in Unarticulated Alnico 5 magnets. Sold my Studio long ago or I'd try it.
@Shaun Verne Sure. They also have a "Classic" model that I believe was the one shown in this video, with the 490T and 490R pickups. It's not that they're dark, they're just not very good with the stock magnets and stock wiring. So, next you can consider the different parts of your guitar signal chain: pickups AND wiring, cable, pedals, amp, and speaker...or preamp and IR / computer interface, if that's how you roll. There are a lot of opportunities to darken your tone along the way, so the guitar becomes a bit less important, even if it's a factor. Personally, I think a decent EQ pedal like an MXR or Boss is an essential part of any guitar rig. I would say to buy the color you want, and if you just can't make it work with the guitar, you can change the pickups and electronics at that point. It's not an expensive change to a guitar, FWIW. There are other SG models to look at, too: Special, Studio, other colors and editions that just came out for a year or two. Personally, I also really like the LTD Viper and Guild S-100 Polara models, which are similar, and you might find some cool options there, too. And you could always start by buying used if you're comfortable with it.
@Shaun Verne All I'm saying is, if there's a color you like, go for that guitar, see how you like it, and worry about changing pickups, electronics, etc. after you play it with your own rig and hear them with your own ears. Classic, Studio, and Special with humbuckers all have 490R and 490T or 498T. I don't like them personally and I think the potentiometers Gibson uses with the wiring makes them lack definition. But if you can do simple soldering, you change the pots and wiring and change the magnets in the pickups for like $35, so it's not a huge deal. FWIW, even if I could afford one of these T-Top editions, I'd still change the electronics, because I'm fussy. Other people are fine with the stock electronics.
@Shaun Verne not with any guitar...but again, you might like the sound of a guitar stock and not want to change anything. And maybe get an additional, different sounding guitar down the road. My tastes have certainly changed over the years.
Just to say that T-Type pickups are now the standard fit pickups on ES-335 and ES-335 Figured models in the Gibson range no matter where you buy them from. Maybe the CME version of the pickup has some other tweaks, but I suspect it just turned out nicely in the CME guitars so Gibson decided to fit it to some of the ES models as standard. By the way, when travel is allowed again you Anderton’s boys should head to Chicago. CME is epic but when in Chicago make sure you go to a Lou Malnati pizza place (there are several in the city)... they make a great Chicago style pizza - none of this Papa John’s nonsense! 😝
I'd love to hear Pete play my 1991 TV Yellow Gibson SG Special. I am the original owner, and that thing has the magic. Everybody who plays her, falls under her spell. Although I've been playing guitar for 35 years, I am nowhere near the player Pete is; and would love to hear what tones he could coax out of her.
If Andertons continues collaborating with CME to bump the custom order size/lower the costs ... How about creating a stronger Gibson headstock? One that players don't fear to drop, kick, ship, or gig with? Lower headstock angle like Epiphone, Scarf joint like Epiphone, a heel-access truss-rod so no wood is removed at the typical break point, and perhaps even a controversial volute. Then prove you made them stronger with Timex-style durability testing in the studio or on-location. Then Pete plays them to prove no loss in awesome tones. Part II: save the environment with more locally sourced and faster growing woods that get the great tones too! Help Gibson design a better guitar for the future. Traditionalists looking back can always buy the weak headstock models they need and experience the shipping drama of broken headstocks when trying to sell them. Good times for all.
Oh, damn. That Oxblood is calling my name. Pete's thing with the van... Sounds like he actually experienced a little som'n som'n. I really need to hear that story.
My dream guitar a 61 style SG with small block inlays and some 70’s vibes.............Anderson’s we’ve got some new SG’s 😵......... just pulled the trigger on the Oxblood SG. I wonder how long it will take to arrive 🤔
It's great that the SG's are still popular, since they have that classic rock sound, which doesn't seem very popular these days, and is us old 80's guys bread and butter. I've played a few, but can't get to the upper frets because the horn is too small for my hands, same with a 335, so I don't own either. Pink is pushing it a bit too:)
The process Lee is describing is the same as if you are in the UK and buy from the US. I would guess it would be similar buying from EU countries. I bought a guitar from California the other week and had to pay UK VAT plus about 3% or so import duty. It is all smooth and well organised. I'll still support UK shops as a first port of call but it isn't such a big deal if you can only get that 'must have' second hand guitar from abroad.
Why isn't this upvoted more? They consider papa jons deep dish?! Pretty sure everyone who eats genuine (loumenottis) deep dish will never look at pizza the same way again and judge ALL pizza off that!
I found an early 90's SG in this color about a year ago on reverb, it was love at first sight 😊. I call it tank green, although i think the official name is olive green 😁. Such a pity they put this style of pickguard on this version, It looks beter with a black one i think.
@Floris Backx : It's Olive Drab Green. I believe it's the same colour that the US army used for their vehicles and other military stuff. I love it! I think the tortoise looks great on it, but I'd probably replace the pickguard for either a chrome one, or a rusty brass or copper one. 😍
I once purchased an LP Studio Pro in black finish. When I got home under better lighting I realized it was a black cherry color? It’s rad either way as I’m color blind anyhow. But, that black SG would match perfect! Ahahaha
I was expecting an SG with Telecaster pickups. That would have been interesting... I used to own a '71 SG Standard. I never knew to pickups were called "T-Type"...
I was never much into sg's. Turns out I'm very much into PINK SG'S. That thing is sexy as hell
I know! I had one for years and said never again. Until now....
I don't need new guitar, don't need new guitar, don't need... where is my bank card... fuck!
The SG is a surprise. Lighter than an LP but just as resonant.
Same
a tip: you can watch movies on Flixzone. Been using them for watching lots of of movies lately.
Pink. Ideal colour for a heavy roller who simply will not f*cking budge. Absolutely rocking colour.
Sensational color, man!
Pink gets me high as a kite.
Probably the best sounding SGs I’ve ever heard.
I think so too. I seriously want one
I have a 71 SG and T Top pick ups are really sounding great
As it's a collaboration it should be the Andertons Chicago Music Exchange model, I'd love an Acme guitar!
A Wile E. Coyote signature guitar.
Genius acme genius
Hahahaha! Yeah, so Wile E. Coyote can have another weapon against the Road Runner!
Damn that Oxblood one looks nice, the tv yellow one's cool too, slight flying microtonal banana vibes.

From glancing at the title I was half expecting a set of Telecaster single coils on an SG
That's what T type means in the guitar world so why wouldn't you 😉
Telecaster pickups in an SG...the perfect way to ruin an SG! :-)
I wonder if that’s what Gibson was thinking when they named it T-Type pickups. Voiced to be more like Tele pickups.

This is pretty cool. Are CME gonna carry some Anderton's exclusives? I live in Chicago, would love to check something like that out.
They already carry some of the Anderton’s inspired Fender vintera exclusives e.g. that purple strat from earlier this month.
CME is going to sell the SGs in this video. I can’t decide on Shell Pink or Ox Blood myself lol
I got one in frost blue a few months ago and it is so beautiful. Never thought I would want an sg until I saw it but I've been in love ever since !
Amazing, this is the the way! I’m glad Anderson’s is working with CME. Now send some Anderson’s exclusives over.

I think it is since the neck joins with the body at about the 20th fret so the neck is a bit further from you picking hand.

Sorry, I prematurely shot my wad with that first comment...but as an SG guy, I thank you for continuing the legacy of such a great guitar! Cheers!
15:40 Danish Pete's comparison tones sold me on the CME edition with T-type pickups!
I hear the Captain's lick - I click!
I love SGs so much. I have an 09 standard and I picked up a 2019 61 Sg standard and it’s my favorite guitar.

Those pups are very nice indeed, I swear it had a strat tone on the neck when hen hit the TS I believe it was. Lots of clarity single coily tones.
SG’s are so lovely. It’s a great guitar and a great tone! I got the telecaster deluxe and the SG is next on my list for sure.
how long did it take? I just ordered shell pink. biting my nails in anticipation lol
Olive green does it for me! I can feel overdraft time coming on... 🤣
I have literally never found myself drawn to SGs and then this year with these and the Kirk Douglas signatures I find myself wanting one
I have a pink one, and I love it!!! Highly recommend!!!
i just recently started learning about scales and how to improvise on a guitar and i'm blown away by the intro jams. tasty
I swear I had a dream about a TV yellow SG. And here we are... Gibson is reading my mind!
Great colours and tones on the special run. I think we'll see more collabs with CME in the future.
Man that closing jam! ZZ Top meets AC/DC! Love it!
Jailbreak!!!!! One of the most underrated AC/DC riffs IMO.
And one of Bon Scott's favorite songs that he wrote! Need I say more?
@@jonathanhudak2059 Oh what? I didn't know that! Thanks for sharing!
Wow! I live in Chicago how cool this is awesome.
Just wanted to say, I do have that version of the regular standard sg and I believe Gibson states on their website that those are their 490t and 490r pick ups, just if anyone was curious. Iv had the experience after mine hearing the 61 standard to sound a bit dark like I couldn't brighten it up with the tone controls either. Love me an sg, to a nerdy degree lol.
The Standard used to have 500T and 496R ceramics, but that may have changed. '61 reissue had Classic '57s and the Studio, Special, and Classic had 490T and 490R. I thought those were muddy as hell. Apparently you can make them brighter and more full/articulate by swapping in Unarticulated Alnico 5 magnets. Sold my Studio long ago or I'd try it.
@Shaun Verne Sure. They also have a "Classic" model that I believe was the one shown in this video, with the 490T and 490R pickups. It's not that they're dark, they're just not very good with the stock magnets and stock wiring.
So, next you can consider the different parts of your guitar signal chain: pickups AND wiring, cable, pedals, amp, and speaker...or preamp and IR / computer interface, if that's how you roll. There are a lot of opportunities to darken your tone along the way, so the guitar becomes a bit less important, even if it's a factor. Personally, I think a decent EQ pedal like an MXR or Boss is an essential part of any guitar rig.
I would say to buy the color you want, and if you just can't make it work with the guitar, you can change the pickups and electronics at that point. It's not an expensive change to a guitar, FWIW.
There are other SG models to look at, too: Special, Studio, other colors and editions that just came out for a year or two. Personally, I also really like the LTD Viper and Guild S-100 Polara models, which are similar, and you might find some cool options there, too. And you could always start by buying used if you're comfortable with it.
@Shaun Verne All I'm saying is, if there's a color you like, go for that guitar, see how you like it, and worry about changing pickups, electronics, etc. after you play it with your own rig and hear them with your own ears.
Classic, Studio, and Special with humbuckers all have 490R and 490T or 498T. I don't like them personally and I think the potentiometers Gibson uses with the wiring makes them lack definition. But if you can do simple soldering, you change the pots and wiring and change the magnets in the pickups for like $35, so it's not a huge deal.
FWIW, even if I could afford one of these T-Top editions, I'd still change the electronics, because I'm fussy. Other people are fine with the stock electronics.
@Shaun Verne not with any guitar...but again, you might like the sound of a guitar stock and not want to change anything. And maybe get an additional, different sounding guitar down the road. My tastes have certainly changed over the years.
Mine is a 1972 Gibson Standard. I love the pick-ups in it!
Very very cool. Sounds great!!
that pink one...hmm...
any chance you could get some with P-90s instead? :))
The Gary Clark signature is yellow with 3 p90’s
I've had the yellow since the start of the year; it's a beauty!
Just to say that T-Type pickups are now the standard fit pickups on ES-335 and ES-335 Figured models in the Gibson range no matter where you buy them from. Maybe the CME version of the pickup has some other tweaks, but I suspect it just turned out nicely in the CME guitars so Gibson decided to fit it to some of the ES models as standard.

Why isn't this upvoted more? They consider papa jons deep dish?! Pretty sure everyone who eats genuine (loumenottis) deep dish will never look at pizza the same way again and judge ALL pizza off that!
Damn you guys, I love the green one, but these will probably sell out before I save up :D
You must be always saving just in case! Or I guess I should say we must always be saving up? Because I haven’t saved either.
I found an early 90's SG in this color about a year ago on reverb, it was love at first sight 😊. I call it tank green, although i think the official name is olive green 😁. Such a pity they put this style of pickguard on this version, It looks beter with a black one i think.
@Floris Backx : It's Olive Drab Green. I believe it's the same colour that the US army used for their vehicles and other military stuff. I love it!
I think the tortoise looks great on it, but I'd probably replace the pickguard for either a chrome one, or a rusty brass or copper one. 😍
The pink one looks so good
Love the kerry green version on the CME website, the blue frost is great too....
What watch is Pete wearing in this vid? Case shape looks like an Autodromo. Just curious!
Those SG's sound wicked, you all are clearly having fun.
Well i was going to watch this video.....but Pete melted my face at the very beginning!
I once purchased an LP Studio Pro in black finish. When I got home under better lighting I realized it was a black cherry color? It’s rad either way as I’m color blind anyhow. But, that black SG would match perfect! Ahahaha
I was expecting an SG with Telecaster pickups. That would have been interesting... I used to own a '71 SG Standard. I never knew to pickups were called "T-Type"...
That’s a mistake. They are called T-Top pickups because they have a T stamped on the bobbins
Nice 70's vibe at the end ;-)
