1978 Gibson SG Custom 3-Pickup Vintage Guitar Alpine White w/ T Tops, Case
Up for sale, a 1978 Gibson SG Custom in excellent condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original hardshell case. This vintage SG Custom platform features a pair of Pat. # T Top humbuckers with a replacement vintage Dirty Fingers humbucker in the bridge position, a TP-6 fine tuner tailpiece, and a gloss Alpine White nitro lacquer finish, one of just 217 Customs produced in ā78.
Weighing 7lbs 2oz, the all-mahogany construction yields excellent midrange warmth and growl, paired with the glassy treble snap of the ebony fingerboard. The replacement Dirty Fingers pickup at the bridge was designed specifically for high gain situations, with smooth compression and a thick, aggressive-yet-full sound. The pair of original Pat. # T Top humbuckers are lively and immediate; the neck is sweet and broad, and the middle and bridge pickup are wound in-phase in the central position for a rich, full-bodied breadth. This SG Custom has been professionally setup here at Mike & Mikeās Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.

The gloss Alpine White nitro lacquer finish shows only faint yellowing in the clear coat, with moderate buckle rash across the bass side of the back, a sliver of finish loss along the back body edge, and minor dings consistent with decades of careful usage, primarily concentrated at the lower bout.
