gibson sg special value
Dxmg Jackson or Gibson SG?
I found a Gibson SG Special that are used for the same price as dxmg Jackson, I think the SG allows to keep value of sale. But Jackson has a warranty. as rock, hard rock etc, heavy metals.
Of personal preference, I would like the Secretary General. The warranty is a good selling point, but as you said the Secretary General could be held more retail value (if maintained in good condition and I am sure that know and keep in good condition) so you can get more for your money if you ever planned to sell. Also depends on the style you want to play. I see Jackson as the Guitar metal, while SG is all rock and roll. So if you're into heavy metal, deep with Jackson Gibson seems fine otherwise.
