Excellent condition. Aside from a pro re-fret and replaced nut(original nut is not broken and it's inside the case), it's 100% original.
No cracks, breaks, repairs, overspray, etc... it's an incredibly solid and original guitar.
All the electronics have the original and un-molested solder joints, and the two original PAFs are also un-molested.
This particular 61 LP/SG has an spectacular neck profile, which reminds me more of a late 59 early 60 Les Paul Std, with a round back, than the later paper thin and flat back of the neck.
It's also probably the loudest solid body electric guitar acoustically that I've ever heard.
The bridge PAF really reminds me of the early Zeppelin era tone, or the Greta Van Fleet SG tone, which is very mellow, but cuts through really well, while the neck PAF is very big and bold sounding, more like the lead clean tone from "No quarter".
The guitar also sounds incredible when used in a high gain situation. These PAFs are not too microphonic, and they sound very tight when pushing the amp drive beyond classic rock traditional amount of gain.
I have removed the tremolo arm because it got in the way of the tone and volume controls for the neck pickup, which I use a lot, but will install it back for the new owner before shipping it.
This is the best SG I've came across so far, and those who knows me, know that I have a bit of experience with vintage Gibson/Fender guitars. The only reason I'm letting this guitar go, along with a lot of gear that I'm selling, it's to help finance another purchase that is a whole lot more than this guitar. So, no trades of any kind on this guitar.
I will be taking more detailed pics of the guitar, like headstock, neck heel, back of the guitar, frets, original case, etc... and will post them here right away.
Price is $30k for the guitar.
I will only ship the guitar fully insured by Heritage. Shipping and insurance of buyers responsibility.
I will also gladly drive a certain distance to avoid the risk of getting this guitar damaged during shipping.
And if you feel like, you're welcome to pick it up in person in Brentwood TN(Nashville area).
Cheers
