Wow, that is a cool vintage SG! Damn. That’s a single coil, not a P90?
Yes, because it’s a Melody Maker, not an SG.
The original Gibson Melody Maker was first launched in 1959 and discontinued in 1971.
The body style was changed in 1966 from a single cutaway to that of the Gibson SG. Colloquially known as the SG Melody Maker, it gained the SG’s pointed “horns”, while a large white scratchplate and white pickup covers replaced the black pickup covers.
This is a Pelham blue version that looks green now because the clear lacquer faded to yellow (yellow and blue make green).
How does it sound? Can you maybe upload a sound example to Soundcloud or YouTube?
I’ve never seen one of these. Thanks for sharing!
