  • It's finished...! My SG Jr "Custom" pics.

    Well, my winter project is finally done. When I got this SG Jr, the body was pretty sound, all the rest was a nightmare. The person before me install an extra pup in the neck, another volume/tone control, and a 3 way switch. It had mixed matched pots, caps, knobs, and he butchered up the original pickguard. With a few phone calls to WD Products, we came up with the original pickguard style, and added the cavity hole for the neck pup, and the 3 way switch. Tearing it down to the body, I left the original finish on, has a few web cracks, but thats ok. I put on new Grover tuners, installed new pots, caps, speed knobs, pup rings, 3 way switch, screws, jack, Badass bridge, Seymour Duncan pup's, "59 in the neck, Custom-5 in the bridge. Also had the fretboard refinished and installed a brass nut. Thanks to everyone's help on this site, here is the finish product. It plays like a dream, I couldn't have done it without all your help, thanks again!

          very nice. I bet it's worth way more than you paid for it now. Not that you would want to sell it or anything. At least I'd keep it.

                  Sweet job bro. You give me hope in refinishing and rewiring one of my SG's.

                  How do you like the toggle switch by the horn?
