So just what exactly are you trying to sell? You've got pieces of descriptions for three separate guitars in your ad.

Is it a '61 Reissue?
Is it an SG Standard?
Is it a Historic SG Standard?

Come on. If you're trying to hock this thing then at least give us some real info. Unless you're just trying to be a crook.

The guitar is a Gibson Les Paul SG Standard Historic '62 Reissue. It was manufactured in the Gibson Custom Shop Guitar facility. It is quite different from a normal '61 SG, SG Standard, SG Special, SG Classic, etc.. The finish is called faded heritage cherry, but it does not look faded at all (look at the pictures - they are of the actual guitar. The '62 sells for a LOT more money than a 61.

I am not trying to hock it. I have it up for sale so it can be played. There is probably less than 20 hours playing time on it as I just have lost interest in guitars right now. If you look back in the "Classifieds" you will see I have sold 5 other guitars in the last month. I am not a crook as I can supply all good references and I also have a 99.7% positive ebay rating.

Please don't make false accusations if you don't know what you are talking about.

Thanks,
TJ

I'm not going to argue semantics about "hock" but I am still going to say that your description is lacking in clarity, and by the looks of the eBay auction you don't know exactly what you have. I also don't see a '62 SG Standard Historic in the 2007 Orion Blue Book for Guitars, or on Gibson's website. I was hoping you would enlighten me.

The last line was an afterthought and was rude. I apologize.
