tbag Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 I just bought an Gibson sg 61 reissue on ebay. Have a look and let me know what you think. Hopefully I got a good deal on the guitar. No repairs or anything like that (thats what the seller said) http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320722161698&ssPageName=ADME:X:RTQ:US:1123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wild_Rose Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 wow the hardware looks really really old even though it's a 2003 model. Bring it to life!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigKahune Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 . That price is great - pretty low for 61RI. And yeah, the hardware looks aged - must've been gigged a lot. A player. Congrats. B) Here's one of the pics from fleaBay - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GuitarTrouble Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 Great price for a real cool guitar. I wouldn't worry about the funky looking hardware. The previous owner is probably like my son, never wipes down his instruments and has persperation and skin oils that have a ph level that puts a funky film on metal, etc. A good clean-up and some TLC and she'll be shiny again. I always kid the sales guys at the local guitar shop, "If you want your guitars relic'ed cheap, just give 'em to my son for a few weeks". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
albertking901 Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 I think you got a good deal if you intend to play it more than look at it. You could always polish it up a bit and make it look better but if it plays like **** you can't easily fix that. So if it plays good, you are a winner my friend. I have a 2005 '61 reissue that is absolutely wonderful to play and as a bonus it looks nice too. But I like it more because it plays soooo goood!! You will too I bet.
