I have looking at information on this forum for a while now. I just registered and this is my first post.
This SG has been in the closet for the last 20 years or so. It had a broken headstock back then. I always wanted an SG, so I got it for not much. A guitar buddy said he knew someone that could fix the headstock and had a nearby guitar shop. Off it went, and when I got it back, it looked just like in the pictures. I don't remember what it had for bridge and tailpiece on it originally, but the holes are there for some sort of vibrato. It has the original P90s in it as far as I know, and they look like originals. It looks like the knobs were replaced, and I don't recall if the pots or wiring were replaced. It has Grovers on it. The neck on it feels super skinny to me. It is really nice to play and sounds good.
I am trying to find out if it is indeed a 1969. Also, as it sits, can it be "restored" to have any meaningful value or what is it worth like it is?
Thanks for any help you can provide.
Rob
