Modded SG Classic FS: on hold

McToot

Hi guys. Despite protestations from my wife* I've decided to shift my lovely modded SG Classic as it's just not getting the attention it deserves. It's from the mid noughties I think and since I've had it I have had Ash from Oil City pickups make me a set of fIrebird style 'buckers for it, which are great - articulate and punchy. I do still have the original P90s and would prefer to sell with both; that way you have the choice of 'buckers or Pete Townsend style P90 goodness.

What else? It's nitro, in very good condition, with just one small ding on the fretboard binding (doesn't affect playability in any way). I also have an Epiphone hard case which fits it very well. £525 for the lot or £480 as it is without the P90s. Quite a chunky neck

Collection much preferred, though I could meet within 45 minutes of Haywards Heath in West Sussex or in central London.  I'll sort out pics as soon as I can figure out how from my iPad...

Are those goof rings for the firebird pups? Or are they screwed into the scratchplate? Very interested but would want to put the P90's back in without the rings. Can meet central London too.

McToot

@SimpleSimon ;The rings are just for the mini hums. It will go completely back to stock when the P90s go back.

what are the extra scratchplate holes for? have you been using dogear covers with the soapbars?
Edit: also any pics of that dink?

Also...as a piece of public service work: @ellwood how are you kitted out for sg’s?

Edit: sorry buddy, now we’ve realised you are fretboard Santa you may get tagged more than @Bridgehouse ;;

They are just the screw holes to adjust the the height of the soap bars. As I said, it would be completely stock if you swapped the mini hums out for the soap bar. I'll try and get a pic of the dink.

For you Mike, I'll drop it off on my way to Mumbai next time...

Wasn’t me this time but probably fat thumbs scrolling on iPhones, I know I’ve been accidentally guilty of this on occasion! Don’t take it to heart buddy, it’s a fine guitar at a bloody good price.

@Teyeplayer - thanks Jay. I love this place but I have tired a lot with the amount of times Rule #1 is broken. I log in less and less (and rarely stray into Off Topic) and that saddens me.

Don't lose heart Jules and those people are few and far between.

Anyway, lovely guitar and GLWTS
