Fairly good condition 2003 SG special in ebony :metal:.

A bit of wear but nothing outlandish or alarming. Adjusted the setup slightly and it's a ripper. Seller said roughly 82-96 neck depth which drew me to going in blind. 7lbs of good times and it balances well on a strap. My friends overhyped the dive I think (my buddy picked it up local on my behalf). It may get the vineham royals in double cream I just took out of the R9 but no rush on that.

And yes it's getting downtuned instead of the virtual capo in the axefx :lol:

Man, I used to look at these and the "faded" ones in musicians friend magazines back in the day and just beg my mom for them, thought they were so simple and badass. Great pick up, hngd dude.

Killer man! SGs are sick!
I've tried a few in store over the last few years and none of them were quite it. Found out real quick the 61RI isn't it for me sadly, but cautiously optimistic about the regular standard.

First of all, congrats! It’s badass!
Too bad about the 61RI, but totally relatable.
I’ve been SG hunting my whole guitar-playing life and only have found two worth taking home (2018 tribute, and 2013 Tribute Future which I am keeping until death).
