{"product_id":"1968-gibson-sg-standard-usa-walnut-hsc","title":"1969 Gibson SG Standard (USA, Walnut, HSC)","description":"\u003cp\u003eA '69 SG in the very first year of the beaut walnut finish. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA few changes from stock, but an absolutel ripper to play, and as you can see...it has been played...a lot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChanged pots, and jack, and sporting a set of Gotoh machineheads. The control knobs are repros, and the bridge is a replacement too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt has a small patch where a coil tap switch once was, and new chrome pickup covers over the original pickups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo breaks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOf course it has had a refret..it's near 60 years old.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSports an early 3 piece neck, and the tiniest hint\/nub of thickness where the upcoming volute would be in the following decade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is NO USA stamp, that you tend to see later in '69 and beyond on these. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo judge Gibson production as always making changes bang on the start of the year, would be wrong..and really, this guitar is a lovely bit of history hinting at some changes to their instruments that would be made in the 1970s. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you are in the market, as of the time of writing this we have two 1969 SG's in stock...come and have a play and see which one you prefer. Honestly, they are both damn fine guitars. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom the year of Woodstock...and if I had to bet...probably made around the same time. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade in the USA, and comes with a period correct, blue lined, leather ended case.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSN 904517\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWeight: 3.4kgs\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Reemes Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53839028289855,"sku":"RMC-MUS-G11156717","price":4375.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0990\/7535\/9039\/files\/ET2884EchoTone10-2-26-8078_d279b88d-d890-4678-8987-94585875dd04.jpg?v=1782094966","url":"https:\/\/www.reemesmusic.com\/products\/1968-gibson-sg-standard-usa-walnut-hsc","provider":"Reemes Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
