1978 SG Walnut with EMG Pickups Item Description
If you look up the word 'Riffs' in the dictionary, this SG might show up as the picture. A 1978 Gibson SG with a walnut finish to the mahogany body and neck with small block inlays and the harmonica bridge as we've seen on SGs of this era. The guitar has a set of EMG pickups installed along with a Hipshot X-Tender on the low E string to drop the string a step with the flick of a switch. The guitar has fretwear on the first six frets with the worst of it being in the first three frets. The guitar has a big chip on the bass side corner of the headstock, and a blacklight shows no breaks at all. It has a narrow 1-9/16" nut width and despite the low frets, still plays nicely and has attitude and tone for days. The original Chainsaw case is included.
Includes: Original Harshell Case
