The Jr is all original except for a Mojoaxe compensated bridge. The original bridge is included. Weighs in at a featherlight 6lb 2oz. Has a strap button added to upper horn. 

This is one of the four digit models fitted at the factory with a soapbar under the dog ear cover. A phenomenon much discussed on the Les Paul forum. 

I bought the SG from forum's own @JimmyGuitar a year ago. All original. Been refretted by Jon at Feline and malfunctioning neck pickup fixed by Ash at Oil City http://www.thefretboard.co.uk/discussion/74791/oil-city-pickups-1963-patent-label-gibson-paf-on-the-bench/p1


More pics available on request. I've resused @JimmyGuitar's picture of the SG as it's better than anything I've taken. Hope you don't mind James!

Trade wise, only really looking for vintage rosewood neck plaques grade Strats 59-64. So if you've got one and are mad enough to unload it, let me know.

Is that grade for dentists only?

I knew I shouldn't have typed that with my feet.

No probs re pic @Blacksheep ! I'd buy the SG back in a heartbeat if I could, it's a real beaut! GLWTS!

By the way, having owned a 66 strat and now in posession of a 62 I'd recommend a no issues 66 for the money you will raise from these 2. They're basically the same guitar with a different headstock and Indian rosewood in place of braz. There's a beautiful 66 on eBay at the mo for £7k which is no doubt negotiable.

Wish I could buy back that SG, it's killer!
