NUGD... and a dilemma

PunkKitty

The fates already f'ked me sideways
I found this 2022 Gibson SG 61 at a pawn shop yesterday and bought it for a quick flip. However, the shops I went to were only offering to pay what a I paid because the hardware was worn/mismatched (previous owner installed black Grovers). So I bought it back to the pawn shop for a refund this morning. Looking over at a wall of guitars, the manager asked "How much do I have to give you back for you to keep it? I have too many guitars in stock." We settled on $180 less than what I paid yesterday. So we did what was needed for me to keep it. I love the dark red color and the neck feels great. The guitar is a bit dirty and smudged at the moment, but it will clean up nicely.

I have another 2022 SG Standard that I I'm considering selling. It looks like this.

I have a few options:

1. Keep both SG's because you can never have too much of a good thing.
2. Fix the red SG and sell it.
3. Sell the blue SG.
4. Sell some other guitars because I have way too many guitars and keep both SG's. This includes parting out some of my Strat/Teles. Honestly, I plan to do this anyway. I just have too much stuff.

Thoughts?

That thing is rock and rolled.

Did Gwar play that thing? I mean, I dig it and all, but it was obviously well loved.
 
It looks like it was well love with sandpaper.
No. It's just fingerprints, etc. It does have several pick scratches though. I think scratch remover will fill some of that. It needs to be cleaned badly.
