Description
What makes this guitar special: Superb tone & a dynamite player from the tail end of the '70s, this walnut SG features a killer pair of Gibson T-Top humbuckers & perfectly shaped neck for smooth comfort. With a cool vintage vibe, it's a sure fire winner & a guaranteed crowd-pleaser. Complete with a pro set up from the experts at Cream City Music, so she's ready to play straight out of the case.
Cosmetic Condition: Used, but not abused, with typical play wear for its age - various nicks, chips, dents & dings; surface scratches & finish wear throughout the guitar.
