Here we have a nice 1968 Gibson SG Jr - a light axe with that killer one-P-90 tone.
The only change to the guitar is covered up under the reproduction Kluson tuners. At one point there was a set of Grovers installed, adding three screw holes to the back of the headstock and widening of the tuner post holes.
The necks on these guitars got chunky again, after years of very slim neck profiles. It isn't thick like a 59 Reissue Les Paul, but it does have some heft. The original frets show plenty of life - they're wide and low-ish, as is appropriate for the era.
There are no routes, cracks, breaks or repairs to the neck or body. The electronics are original, with the solder joints undisturbed.
Comes with a nice, non-original hardshell case.
