So I'm GASing again for a cherry SG. I'd really like a Historic with Maestro Vibrola, but it's probably out of my price range and I've read enough bad stuff here and on other forums about the crappy Vibrolas that are going on the current Historics to scare me off.
So I'm actually considering a "regular" SG Standard. Don't mind the bigger pickguard (Gary Louris' SG has the same), I understand the necks may be a little bigger than the '61 reissues, which I HOPE is true. What do folks here think about the stock PUs? I know I can buy aftermarkets if I'm not happy with them, and my main priority is neck size, but I'd rather not have to drop money on PUs right away if I buy one.
