Lbcr Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 Hi folks, I'm interested in buying this 2005 SG Special but I'm a bit frightened by ripples visible in the paint in the headstock and also a bit in the pots/selector area. Curious to know what your thoughts are about this. Traces of neck damage or repair? Also wondering about the pickups covers which might be a custom addition. Would you feel confident in buying this guitar? Thanks a bunch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt. Pepper Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 It’s probably just paint checking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveFord Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 There's tons of them out there without the checking. I would guess someone either swapped the pickups out or stuck some covers on there to dress it up a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidblast Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 (edited) yea,, finish checking. cosmetic, if it is a problem, just move on and find another agree with steve someone either swapped out the pickups or added covers.. probably swapped them out.
