it would be a great deal if it weren't for the break repairs imho. I am not the one who will take a chance on a repaired neck on an sg. :) Others may, it it might be fine, but not I.

IMO i would care a LITTLE bit about the repairs as i know there are some that know their stuff but if i was close enough i would play it and check to see if the job was done well * a good way o get the price down i guess :D

Like I said, some would buy a guitar with a repaired break, some wouldn't. I'm in the camp, of wouldn't buy one. It may be a great player guitar, but that is all it will ever be as far as resell goes. With that in mind, I'd rather buy a brand new 61 reissue for around 2k, that is in perfect condition.
