Up for auction is a 1968-1969 vintage Gibson SG Standard Heritage Cherry Red with factory Vibrola! Comes in original 1968 Gibson case.

This guitar must have been made somewhere in late 68 - early 69 as it has soft neck heel curve and 1-piece neck which is correct for a 68 and no dot over the 'i' which is correct for a 69. A BEAUTIFUL guitar! 

The sustain and tone on this guitar are outstanding! It sounds great - meaty and big! Very good for crunch. The clean sounds are very strong as well. I can see why it is a standard for rock musicians.
This guitar is in FANTASTIC cosmetic condition ~~ VERY CLEAN!
Showing some minor play wear on the body such as a couple of small 'character' dents in the bottom edge. 
Neck is straight and has a nice chunky rounded profile which feels adds to the sustain.  The original fret still enough left left in them. Nice, easy action and GREAT playability! The case is in excellent shape as well.WEIGHT: 8.5 LBS          SERIAL: 560XXX
