Uhhhmmm... can't see the pix, dude. You need to post them on some site such as photobucket.

 

However.

 

If it has one pickup (either a P-90 or a humbucker) and a bolt-on neck, it's an SG Junior (also referred to as a G-310 Junior).

 

If it has two pickups, one volume, one tone, a bolt-on neck and no pickguard, it's an SG Special.

 

If it has two pickups, two volumes, two tones, a bolt-on neck and a pickguard, it's a G-310.

 

If it has two pickups, two volumes, two tones, and a glued-on ('set') neck, it's a G-400.

 

If it has two pickups, two volumes, two tones, a glued-on ('set') neck and a satin (flat) finish, it's a Vintage G-400 or a G-400 Faded.

 

If it has two pickups, two volumes, two tones, and a glued-on ('set') neck with Jeebus inlays, it's a Tony Iommi G-400.

 

If it has three pickups, three volumes, one tone, and a glued-on ('set') neck, it's a G-400 Custom.

Yeah i thought they were EMG's but i coudl find any SG's that came with them stock.

I'm guessing someone put them in later?

 

 

 

So how much do you think this guitar is worth?

 

Is 200 too much for a used guitar like this.

 

Sorry i dont' know much about SG's, i've only had one guitar my whole life and it's been a Fender Telecaster.

Its a G-310 with covered humbuckers. Same as the standard open humbuckers, but with covers on them. Nothing special in that department. My guess is that it is a 90's model. I have the same exact guitar, but in red.

 

Also, the pickups are muddy and not very hot.

It's a G-310, most likely made by Samick; apparently they made them with the black plastic-covered pickups for a while.

 

$200 is a little too much for that guitar; they're not much more than that new. Heck you should be able to get a used G-400 with a set neck for $200. I would not have paid more than $100.
