Laney1566 Posted September 16, 2009 Author Share Posted September 16, 2009 CrackLevent' date=' that half moon control plate is kinda strange but I totally dig the logo etched pup covers. Definitely one of the more unique SG model's "out there." What year is she?[/quote'] No kidding and the stopbar is way back from the bridge.

Its my babe :D and I love it Very cool! Some don't particularly care for the Norlin era SG's but my walnut '78 is an absolutely amazing guitar. Light as a feather, super-slim neck and those Tar Back pups SCREAM! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dub-T-123 Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 Jojo... That is badass. That setup looks like it's ready to just blow my mind. If I could step into that picture I would immediately crank that up and just blast some black sabbath. Then I'd come back down to reality and play my regular stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdphotos Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Looks like my registration was lost as well, Oh well Good ole Google to the rescue to find my post in this thread and copy/paste it :-) Here's mine that I just recently took to Guitar Center to trade for a PRS Santana Edition. First guy said not to do it, but then after he took it into his managers office they said they could order one in the color I wanted. (Around 5k value) I never really liked playing this guitar (Crazy Huh, 18th Birthday Present) and really enjoy playing my MIM Strat that I bought @ the local swapmeet for 75 bucks. Thing is I don't know what has been done to this guitar as there's a hole under the bridge and an extra switch that changes the tone. GC said its probably from a floating tremolo? But I don't see that being possible. The electronics don't look all jacked up either or they were all done @ the same period and left alone after changing the pickup. I Email'd Gibson some time ago about the serial # and they said its between 63 and 65. (UPDATE: I checked out the Pots and they're dated 67) What do you guys think? Can anyone spot the obvious reasons for the hole under the strings? Cover is from a Cheap Epiphone that i put on just to cover up the hole. Here's a photo with the guard pulled away. Any Ideas of what the extra hole is for.. Custom or tweeker customized? And for those who like Props holding their guitars :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geert1976 Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 Here is mine: a 1967 SG Melodymaker with repaired headcreack (that's why the decall is'nt original anymore) and full respray, Gibson Burstbucker III instead of the original single coil en 70's Gibson Deluxe tuners instead off the original strip tuners, a Schaller stud with sadles instead off the original wraparound bridge and a B5 instead off the original Vibrola. For those who concern..... I kept the original parts. here is a foto, where you can read the serialnumber good. I also have a Arbiter by Teisco SG from 1973 and i play Neil Young with that one: tomorow i get another SG, its a Japanese Custom by Matsumoku SG 3 Custom from the late 70's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote'] It is very clean but there are signs of light wear here and there if you looked in person. The pick guard has lots of fine scratches... you can see a haze on the guard in one of the pics. Owned her about 6 months.... I play this guitar several hours a week... More than my 3 others... all LP's One nice thing about having several guitars is if you rotate them around no one guitar gets all the wear. Also I don't play out these days... No drunk band mates to run into. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
