    Apologies!
    Here's some more info from the ad:

    Regretfully selling this exceptional SG. 

    This guitar plays better than any Gibson SG i've ever played and has a wonderfully unique sound that nails so many great tones. 
    Built by a highly admired luthier across the pond (Not just a Gibson factory pop-out). Please contact me for a direct link to the build thread. 


    Features: 
    • 1 piece slab-lab cut African Mahogany body 
    • 1 piece African Mahogany neck with an ebony fret board 
    • Holly veneer headstock with MOP inlay 
    • 50s wiring with .22 orange drop caps and CTS pots 
    • Parson Street pickups 
    • Hot hide glue construction and Real Tung oil finish 

    Hard-case included in the sale.
    *Please note the bridge pickup ring has since been removed*

    This is a very high quality guitar. It looks, plays and sounds incredible. 
    Feel free to contact me with any questions!

    Ah sorry, I have it with a starting bid of £975 on eBay but would be open to 'buy it now' offers from fellow fretboarders!

    Very nice but I struggle to see how that price is justified given the information provided still.

     

     

    What's the headstock like?

    The guitar was built by the luthier Scott Wilkinson, who goes by the name 'Ex Nihilo' (Out of Nothing).
    Here's a link to the build thread:

    And here's a video of one of his slightly less traditional SG builds in action:

    Guitargeek62- Here's a shot of the headstock: http://imgur.com/vwJfQw8


    Let me know if I can help with any additional information or pictures.
