This is a ’68 SG Special in Heritage Cherry. It features a stoptail adjustable bridge, Grover tuners, a bound rosewood fretboard and dual humbuckers (I believe they are newer Gibson pickups but there’s no markings). It is a total survivor with no visible repairs – just considerable wear, tear, dents, dings, some binding shrinkage and some finish marks etc. It has been well loved as you can see, but not abused. Includes a newer unbranded case. I do have a vintage period correct Gibson decal you can add back to the headstock if you’d like as well.
Condition wise, this guitar is in okay shape for its shape. It has some many marks, dents, dings etc as pictured – these have a thin finish. There is considerable wear and shrinkage along the side of the binding – please review and zoom in on all photos if interested. I do not see any evidence of any repairs. You can see the three pieces of the headstock visible as well too and there is some blemishes and finish cracks as pictured along the sides of the headstock as well. There is some residue from what looks like stickers and possibly different bridges installed at some point. Please review all photos, as I can only fit 25 photos. The truss rod turns fine and the neck is straight.
- I do not consider an item sold on Reverb until payment has cleared.
- I do ship from coastal Florida, so often times hardware can get a bit of sea salt on it from my humid climate. Review all photos thoroughly. Any other account using my photos is not me. If I can show you anything further – please let me know. Thanks!
- Worry not, I always ship insured with Reverb Safe Shipping (which will require a signature). I do live on an island, so my shipping times may vary. Typically, I use UPS. I ship from humid, coastal Florida. I always recommend waiting a bit for guitars to acclimate prior to opening….just to be safe!
- I take pride in delivering a 5 Star experience. Every item over $500 I sell is videoed and documented top to bottom prior to packing.
- I do my absolute best to document all my listings with the utmost attention to detail and care. That said, I’m not a shop. I am Jake. Any item purchased from me comes as is with no returns accepted under any circumstances. All sales are final. This item may need to be set up and tweaked further to your personal specifications. You’re buying an instrument, not a professional setup. I do detune all items prior to packing, thus out of the box you will need to re-tune and potentially re-setup this item upon arrival.
- If I can answer any questions, please message me any time at all.
That’s all folks. Thanks!
