Mines a 78, has he numbers for that year?

This guitar is a Ltd edition, when they came out in 2011 they had ebony boards and then they changed it to rosewood. It's nothing like baked maple it has grain, it's not covered in wax, you can't even tell there's any wax on it.

Here's the pics of mine.

I have a SG that has a board that looks lots worse than yours. I sent it into my local luthier to have some big modifications and while he had it he waxed the fret board, I can't say I noticed much difference but I treat it with lemon oil a lot more often than my other guitars. The guitar is...

Great deal, if they're the original pups they should sound awesome, was it a bad amp you tried it on?

I agree with Biddlin, they look like stickers, the trem is definitely not original to the guitar you can see where the stop tail posts have been. Was probably a special or a classic that been converted to humbuckers.

I see lots of customs and those Captain Kirk SG's up for as much as you could buy a real 60's SG for. I know which one I'd spend my money on.

Nice, looks like a '74. Way over priced I'd say though. I only paid a £1,000 for my '78. http://s757.photobucket.com/user/Delboyuk_01/media/Guitars/152AFE76-EEFF-449D-B877-C55FB06F0571_zpsjl4vsspj.jpg.html][/URL]

Unfortunately that's one of the least sought after models of SG in existence.

That certainly is beautiful. If I had the cash, I would. I'd even swap my vintage custom for that.

Hello and Welcome, good start with your rig. AC/DC, my no1 band. :cheers:

None, get a SG instead.

All my SG's neck dive so bad I can't even reach the neck properly to fret chords. When gigging I have to employ someone to hold the end of the guitar up, it's so out of control. One time I had to use a mic stand to prop the neck up because I didn't have someone to hold it for me while I played...

My 1978 custom. I only paid £1000 for her. Just be patient and hold out until the right one comes along, at the time I was looking the were quite a few around that were out of my price range, there were even those Captain Kirk SG's listed on eBay for stupid amounts of cash and they haven't even...

I thought the junior and the firebrand sounded great. Love the sound of my P90 SG with the tone rolled off almost half way.
