After lusting after it for a long time it's finally mine. This is a1962 RI SG Custom from 1987. It's marked as a factory second, but the guy says he talked to Gibson and it was more than likely an artist model. O had a second LP Custom a few years ago and the markings were different. Maybe he's being straight with me, may be not either way the guitar is great, was the right price and mine. I'll post some after pics when the refin is complete. I love nitro, but hate the way it white paint yellows with time.
