    Thanks for the welcome everyone.

    duhvoodooman, the guitar is not mine, but a pic of an 80's model Yamaha SG2000 with a rare yellow finish. I've been looking for one like it for years with no luck. That quest is forever ongoing.

    Hi and welcome Geoff. I think I have a friend in Florida that has the guitar in your avatar. He's been collecting them since the 70s and I've tried but he wont sell anything.

    Hope you enjoy the forum.

    Spudman, that is the norm in that most lucky enough to have Yammy SG'S will not part with them. They are very well made and a joy to play. Thanks for the welcome.

    Robert, I was doing a google search on a Bitmo mod for a pedal I just got (Behringer VT999) and one of the links in the search lead me here. I read that thread, then another...and decided to join. Thanks for the welcome.

    Everyone else, thanks for the kind welcome as well!
