Gave my SG Junior a clean and some new strings

I know it's been ages since I have taken any photos of this guitar, and it must be a year since it had been cleaned and got a new set of strings. I did that today so I figured I'd take a photo and post it.

It is a 2006 Gibson SG Junior in Coral Pink, one of three limited beach colours that these were made in for Yamano, in the last year that Yamano were distributors of Gibson guitars in Japan.

This one is in standard tuning these days, with a 9-46 Hybrid Slinky string set. The pickup is a Bare Knuckle Stockholm P90 soapbar that was made as a special order back in late 2013, before it became a production item (originally it was only a humbucker-sized P90 model). Warranty card says 14.9kΩ

The bridge is a Graph Tech ResoMax NW-2 with String Saver saddles, and it also has a Graph Tech TUSQ XL nut and Gotoh SG301-05P1 MGT locking tuners. The guitar is fully shielded with conductive paint to reduce hum and has a custom wiring harness with MojoTone 500KΩ CTS pots and a Russian NOS PETP 0.033μF poly capacitor. It has also been fitted with a DiMarzio ClipLock strap.
