My Trading Feedback | You Bring The Band
Just because you're paranoid, don't mean they're not after youits not even foolproof - SG's just want to dive sometimes. The other obvious suggestion is to remove the G-force and replace with something lightweight. Still no guarantees then, but doing that and adding a bigsby should do it
There isn't an ideal position for a strap button on an SG that stops neck dive. I like it on the top horn as it stops the guitar tipping forward as much. It needs to be closer to the 12th fret to stop neck dive

What about a few fishing weights on the strings between the bridge and the tail piece.

Just because you're paranoid, don't mean they're not after youPut some coins in a bag and then tape the bag to the butt end of your guitar strap.
If it feels much better - and the extra weight is OK - that probably points you to the obvious solution. Have a dedicated strap for your SG and get someone clever (probably a woman) to sew the coins into the strap.
I like the traditional front strap position on an SG. I think the "swivel" on the strap button is part of the stage feel of an SG. I would imagine that your guitar will currently be neck heavy with the button in either position.
I think the problem is worth solving. Even if only 1% of the effort produced by your fretting hand is being used to support the neck.....that is still too much effort.
Someone I knew years ago did that, it worked perfectly. If I remember right it was a big ornate cowboy thing that said 'Calgary' on it, so presumably from the rodeo!

Seems the easiest solution to me, makes sense, though I couldn't go the cowboy decoration route myself
