That said, Mich seemed nice enough when I saw the SG.

Didn’t they get Dave Walker right after Pete left?

If you mean immediately after then no. Dave was recruited along with Bob Weston after Danny Kirwan was fired in 1972. Weston filled the need for a lead guitarist but Walker was only brought in because Clifford insisted they needed a frontman. The band of course didn't agree hence why Walker was cut.
