diablo175 Posted November 17, 2011 Posted November 17, 2011 SOLD Ebony Gibson SG Standard, made in 1995 (serial #92585786). The guitar is in used but in excellent condition. There is some buckle rash on the back and some minor scratches here and there, but no chips or anything through the finish. The neck is straight and there is minimal to no fret wear. No headstock breaks or repairs. Neck profile is a rounded shape, and somewhere in between a 50s and 60s style neck thickness. Definitely not as thick as some of the current production SG Standards. The stock Gibson 490R and 498T pickups have been replaced with a Rio Grande BBQ and Texas set. Gives it a meaty thick tone that sounds awesome thru a 100w Kustom. The chrome pickup covers do show some wear, but nothing that really stands out from a distance. Strap locks have also been added. Just got this a month ago and am not bonding with it (okay, honestly? I keep reaching for the wammy bar... ) $750 shipped conus tyd.
BubbaVO Posted November 17, 2011 Posted November 17, 2011 A black SG with one of my favorite sets of pups. I'm a little light these days or I'd be really tempted. Good luck with it.
diablo175 Posted November 19, 2011 Author Posted November 19, 2011 BTW- I do have the original stock Gibson 490R and 498T pickups to go with it. Order before midnight tonight and I'll throw them in absolutely free! Operators are standing by. Next ten callers receive this handy combination juicer and belly button lint remover.
hamersandstrats Posted November 19, 2011 Posted November 19, 2011 The BBQ sounds killer in an SG. Surprisingly, the stock 490R neck pickup matches quite well with the BBQ-even better than the Texas, IMO. Try it,
diablo175 Posted November 25, 2011 Author Posted November 25, 2011 Just a reminder- the original Gibson strap buttons and pick ups are available should you want to return it to stock... just sayin'
gtone Posted November 25, 2011 Posted November 25, 2011 Looks like a nice, straightahead R'n'R machine right there. Kinda surprised someone hasn't snatched it up by now.
