In this 1971 SG200 pic you can clearly see ... no neck angle and no contours ... that spread across the range for a while.

The Seventies.
A major modification was the insertion of the neck about an inch farther into the body; it now joined at the 20th fret and was set at a "90 degree pitch" to the body. This phrase quoted from Gibson literature of the time is technically a misnomer. as the alteration mounted the fingerboard parallel with the body (previously it had pitched slightly backward) and raised it higher above the body than had been the style before. There was a large heel block that began to taper into the neck at the 17 fret.....
My advice would be don't buy any case that you have not seen (even if is the "correct case" for your guitar) Better to buy a generic case with some tolerance.

Shortly afterwards he says:
The oversized SG 100 series probably represents the low point of Gibson solidbody development with the late-1971 Custom, Deluxe and Pro vying closely for this distinction.
:-O
ICBM - (as usual) I am impressed......
