That is gonna be rad as fuck.
Love both of those things, as well as what you guys will eventually do with that foundation.

EDIT. After getting home and playing the Sound City through my various cabinets, I now realize how quiet my 810 is compared to the two 215s that I have. I'm now thinking of selling the 810 to fund a custom 415 cab or two more 215s of my own design. Decisions decisions...
Fucking badass!!!!! and yes I found Ampeg 8x10's to be waaaayyyy too quiet for my liking.

The 1200s sounds awesome. One of the best dirty bass tones I've ever heard. Skip had a 300t but it was broken I think?
Yeah I had one of those 85lb paper weights called a 300T. AVOID like the plague!!!! They were riddled with issues that did not get resolved until they stopped the Sunn name and started releasing it under the Fender 300 pro name. The 1200s rackmount though I've heard very little to no issues about. I eventually sold my 300t as a project amp to Bear Hampton, apparently he got it up and running pretty quickly while the tech I took it too was mystified.

Has any one tried or have a Gibson Raw Power SG? Working on a craigslist trade deal for a 2009 one and I'm not sure what an all Maple Sg would be like, all though I do really love maple fretboards. The pics on craigslist are shitty but its one of these:
This is the actual color:

And an over all shot

I'm mystified by SGs without P-90s, and as much as I

maple fretboards on Fenders they just look odd on Gibsons to me...

Honestly not sure about the paint job, but I love maple boards on Gibsons.

That thing looks like it would be badass. Probably really bright though?

I'm thinking the opposite, colour is awesome but the maple board is
That fretboard should be ebony. But everyone is different I suppose.

I like maple or ebony, just hate rosewood. Only have one instrument with a rosewood board, but it's unique enough in every other respect that I overlook it.

If I get it, it will eventually have a p90 in the neck.

It looks odd but I think with that color combo or a white body it looks pretty good.

From what I've read its definitely not overly bright but more like an SG with a lil tele fretboard noise, brighter than usual but not overly bright. Good for chord clarity with tons of gain.

I'm totally with Corey, I love maple and ebony fretboards but can't dig on rosewood. Dunno why. The color is odd at first but its growing on me, now if only the dude would get back to me...

I treat all my rosewood boards with Marveer for dark timber furniture polish and after a few coats they darken up to look like ebony. It's better than Lemoil on the fretboard.

That's what I'm thinkin, especially once I put the warpig in the bridge and eventually order a pig90 for the neck.
