Hi guys,
Anyone seen this SG on the market before? Looks like he's also selling a Black El Degas Les Paul. $375.ea Kinda steep?
Thoughts?

Re: MIJ El Degas SG
You can get picky about this being a bolt on neck versus a set neck, but the overall build is quite good and likely sounds just fine. I do not like where the owner choose to locate the top strap button however. It shouldn't be there at all, but if it has to, it needs to be centred in the heel, not offset like that.
$375 is likely too high for a bolt on, even with a case.

I had a couple bolt-on SG copies back in the day. OK guitars. Culled them from the herd when I was getting rid of most of my bolt-ons. Would not pay $375 for one, personally.
I started ElDegas.com many years ago to help celebrate and inform about El Degas instruments. It all started with a used Ric 4000 bass copy I bought in circa 2000.
