Well our 2009 "Picture This" photo contest is over and we have a winner! Congratulations to WHITE HORSE for his submission entitled Black Power. He received a BOSS SD-1 Super Overdrive Pedal generously supplied by Sweetwater Music and ROLAND.
We had so many great submissions we actually had a three way tie for second place. We didn't want to have a tie breaker so each second place finisher received a everythingSG.com t-shirt.

The New SG Raw Power
The new SG Raw Power from Gibson USA adds another dimension to Gibson’s most popular model of all-time. Everything about the SG Raw Power still screams SG. But take a closer look at the new colors, the new upgrades – and the new nice price – and you’ll see it’s more desirable than ever before. Above all, the most inspired design in guitar-making history is now available in solid maple. It creates a fresh, brilliant tone previously unheard of from a standard SG. And for the first time the SG is available with a three-piece solid maple neck, topped with a maple fingerboard. The SG’s signature look also gets a facelift with a new palette of satin nitro finish colors, and a pair of Gibson’s ’57 Classic humbucker pickups gives it a brand new power plant. Legendary “PAF” tone in a totally contemporary format. It’s one of the most distinct sounding SGs you’ll ever hear.
Things are really looking up around here. Gibson invited us to be their guests at the 2008 Summer NAMM and their 2008 Summer JAM which included an inside look at the Custom Shop, several new SG models, Johnny Winter, Slash and more! While in Nashville we also visited the Gibson Store and got to see all the current production models of SGs. On a side trip we even got to play a 1961 SG/LP with the side pull vibrola and let me tell you that guitar was almost heaven.
