I've decided to let my Epi SG go, but I won't be posting any additional info and/or additional pics until sometime tomorrow.
These are some crappy pics to get an idea of what is for sale.

This thing is like new. I purchased it, played it for a month and then switched to acoustic. When I switched back to electric, I bought the Ibanez, then I got the Dot, then..., I think I took the SG out once or twice since switching back. It's a nice guitar, well cared for, but I am caught up in the others.Originally Posted by tjcurtin1
1) Selling a guitar takes away most of the punch.How ever did you hang on to one wife for 21 years?!?:
2) If I knew, I would write a book and have a lot more guitars and start focusing on amps.

Ok, some better photos and info.
It's an SG G400. They are selling at Music123 and Sweetwater for $350 without a case.
This guitar has no scratches, dents, and/or dings, anything you see in the photos that appears to be a scratch is most likely reflection - this sucker shines.
I really haven't played it much and to be honest I took it out today and it sounds sweet. I may put the Ibanez and the SG up for sale and keep which ever one doesn't sell.
# Color: Cherry
# Body Wood: Mahogany
# Neck Wood: Mahogany (set)
# Fingerboard: Rosewood
# Scale length: 24.75" 1.68"
# Position Markers: Trapezoid
# Number of Frets: 22
# Pickups 2-Alnico-V HB's
# Controls: 2 volume, 2 Tone
# Pickup Switching: 3-way selector
# Hardware: Chrome
# Bridge/Tailpiece: Stopbar
Only flaw is the 3 way switch will crackle when first used, but seems to stop after it's been moved a couple of times. It doesn't cause a short where a setting goes dead, but makes the crackle noise through the amp when switch is moving.
Action is set to my liking, but that is something that is subjective on individual taste.
Tomorrow I will put it on E-bay. On E-bay it will probably be $300 to $310 "buy it now", and reserve that I haven't decided on.
At the moment I have a fretter that is considering it and they will have first grabs at it. If you are interested, PM me. If you have questions about the guitar, ask them here so that everyone shares in the info.

I have an SG to go too but I'll wait till you get yours sold off.
Rocket - Go ahead and post now, choices are good.
Fretters - If you are interested, send me a best offer and I will consider it. Make them serious, no trades, no ex-wives, but if it's a serious offer all I can say is no. Nothing can insult me or hurt my feelings.

Took it off the market. I was informed that it is Korean made and for now I took it off the market.
So now I put the Ibanez ARC300 up for sale. Someone convinced me that was the better choice to sell, so we shall see.

Well, it's over $300 and a Buy It Now is at $375 (free shipping with Buy It Now). The guitars when they were available were selling for $400, I never saw them for less. You can't locate any in the web stores that I have looked at and used ones are just as scarce.Originally Posted by player

I also figure if I keep the SG, that is sort of like having an entry level guitar with points. Although modest as they might be, it allows me to have conversation with Matt (Reverend Rawk).
