Help on repairing a SG

Well I've decided to help out my girlfriend's brother and repair his SG copy, the bridge & tailpiece are missing and the whole thing needs a good proper clean down.

Could anyone give me some cheap places to get replacement parts and proper cleaning products? it has a rosewood fretboard.

Thanks everyone.

ebay! idk lol

*sigh* if you have nothing serious to comment please do not comment this isn't a fairground dang nabit!

Yes I have tried Ebay...

I think local guitar or instrument stores should have such things. Or if they do not have, I think they will order them if they have a hunch of customer service

Check out guitar fetish, I'm planning on getting some parts and stuff soon. The prices seemed good.

I've seen gibson bridges cost upwards of $50 that was some years ago too. THis place has tune o matics for about $20

Aye was thinking of that Emp but the local place adds like 50% to whatever you get them to order in....basterds
Tele, they ship to the uk? If so whats the charge I was never able to find out looking on there (I fails ;P)

lol thanks tele I really should of spotted that! cheers man =D

I had a look on GuitarAmpKeyobard.com (GAK), and they have some tune-o-matic bridges that would work on an SG. They also have Lemon oil is used to clean rosewood fretboards.

I'm not sure if that's the cheapest though. Maybe look at Thomann? I'm not really sure of other sites that ship to Europe.

GAK has that stuff? I've only found stuff like amps,eq,guitars/basses and such...I'll go check over now thanks for giving me the heads up GRX.

^ Yeh, they don't have much though. I just searched "tune-o-matic" (the kind of bridges that most Gibsons have) and one or two things came up. They have the cleaning stuff in the accessories section, in a subgroup called Guitar Care.

aye, well the SG appears to only have the big holes for the Tail-piece no holes for the bridge...her brother's I mean...

I don't know. But if you're lucky maybe even find some sort of really cheap really used Gibson guitar that smimilar to the /is a SG and take that one's bridge. Chances may be slim I know but it worked or my cousin's Martin guitar when it broke.

Warmoth is a good site.
