This is back on the market because, lovely as it is (and it is), I think I'm just a humbucker peasant, so it never comes out of the case, which is an absolute waste of a great guitar.
Nicely setup (to my mind), easy to play, well-balanced (no neck dive for me, although I do use a suede strap with it).
Excellent condition, comes with truss rod tool and a little bit of Gibson puff paperwork in the case. There's a tiny, tiny blemish on the back of the neck, pin-prick kind of thing, virtually invisible to the naked eye and doesn't impact playability at all (for me). It's a princess and the pea kind of deal, but full disclosure and all that.
This guitar is guaranteed to result in more and more satisfying sexual conquests of your preferred gender [1]
This guitar will make you an irresitable force able to fulfill all of your desires [2]
This guitar confers immortality and youthful vigour on the owner [3]
This guitar is an extremely nice example of a 2004 Gibson SG Classic with twin P90s in superb condition and you'd be hard-pressed to find a better one without a lot of searching [4]
No trades.
Absolutely not shipping because it's too nice to risk couriers. Collection from Hertford or there's the potential to meet-up over a reasonable distance.
Casual research seems to indicate that these go for £1,200 or thereabouts (Reverb, Ebay etc.).
So, for a sale from here, £1,000
Yes, it's up on Facebook for a bit more than that. But that's Facebook.
[1], [2], [3] These claims are total bullshit and absolutely not guaranteed in any way, shape or form; but you might briefly feel like they're true when you start playing it
[4] This one I stand by, for what it's worth
First couple of pictures will click through to full-size/hi-res; the others are shrunk a bit but if anyone wants more detailed shots, let me know, I can PM them.

Tis a sound buy however - don’t hold back..!!
previously 'retsacotarts' on music radar forum
And it was before the prices went nuts so I got less than £550 for it too which makes it all hurt more.

location?
All original?
Any neck dive on a strap (though Bigsby would resolve if it does)
Neck profile: I don't know, I'm hopeless at such things. Pleasant, but slimmer then my 98 Studio
Location: Hertford. A bit north of London up the A10 or A1
Original: as far as I know. I bought it off DickieGuitar maybe 6+ years ago and apart from string changes it's as I received it.
Neck dive: not that has ever caused me an issue. I have a suede strap so that's a bit grippy. With a slippy strap and hands free I would expect a slight droop but not a rush to the floor.
@Philly_Q I have no idea, I play them (or not in this case) and have never got into the nerdy aspects to that degree. Over the years when I've searched for contemporary examples to compare I've seen them with both ABR-1 and Nashville, but have no idea if it was a factory option or a previous owner's preference.
FWIW, I suspect it is a replacement ABR-1 sitting on Nashville posts, but that's an improvement in my opinion, it certainly looks better. I'll probably do the same on mine at some point.
