I’m looking at this SG Deluxe Standard. Here’s the serial:
The Decoders are all over the place. I was told that it’s a 74, but I’m waiting on the pot codes. My guess is that it is what the seller is saying. He’s a close friend, so I’m not worried too much, but he’s not nearby. He says that he bought it from the original owner, who claims to have purchased it in 74. I’m not familiar with a case like this, especially without Gibson branding, but the original owner said that’s what came with it. I’m sure it could have been whatever the store had lying around at the time.
I won’t be playing this guitar because of the nut width, but I’m getting it cheap, and it’s too clean to pass. I’ll just hold it for a decade or so. If you see anything weird let me know. I’m a lot more familiar with 50s and 60s than Norlin Gibsons.

) I was surprised how quickly I adapted once I started playing it on a regular basis. It did not affect my ability to go back to the wider necks at all, on the contrary it encouraged me to learn some new techniques, many of which even transfer nicely back to other instruments.
