Rawbplaysguitar Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Okay well, I bought this SG the other day and for the life of me I can't figure out what it is! http://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash4/480843_613168282031249_68676618_n.jpg http://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-snc7/577316_613164405364970_110550191_n.jpg The one on the left, I checked the serial number and was made in 74-75 in the US, but it's such a weird piece. Wrap around bridge, Fender Jaguar style pickup selectors (two seperate switches turning the pick up on or off), Dot inlays, it has a Les Paul style pickguard screwed onto the body, and the pickups. The pick ups are what would appear, and sound like humbuckers, but they're smaller, with those solid black covers on them. Anyone have info on this thing?

BigKahune Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 . Welcome. Pics are pretty dark - it looks like an SG II - http://www.everythingsg.com/index.php/ii.html Originally came with a Gibson wrap around bridge without adjustable saddles, like on a Junior. It's been modded with wrap bridge with adjustable saddles so it's intonable. Looks all original except for the bridge. Those are mini-humbuckers. Cool SG. Congrats. . B) .

Omg! There's no way mine is worth that much, but holy crap. I think I made a good investment! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
