This model was very similar to the SG2000 but it had a number of differences that set it apart from the 2000.The most obvious was the set neck rather than the through neck.This is easy to spot because if you look at the back of the guitar where the neck joins the body there is a noticeable step just infront of the strap button. The bridge was the same but it lacked the sustain plate underneath. The SG1000 also had a tone bypass circuit and coil taps which may have been fitted to the first ones from the beginning. Please note the tremolo is not original. overall its in good condition, there are a few knocks and scratches on the guitar.If you are a fussy person, please do not buy this guitar, go to a shop to buy one.
