It's a bit more than that. There can be numbers or letters in the third position, so you would need to backup SG* and MG*.

EDIT - John's post has more good info. I was clarifying BarryKJ's post.

This is from the Help, Files-Songs:


Song files end in ?G? extension.

If the song has a melody the extension will begin with M (otherwise it’s S).

The second letter of the song name is G.

The third letter is the style of the song, 1-9 and A-N for built in styles and U for a User style.

Example: My Song Title.MGU

The M tells us that a Melody is recorded.

The G is always present in song names telling us that it is a song.

The U tells us that the style is a user style.

Example: My Song Title.SG1

The S indicates that no melody is recorded.

The G is always present in song names telling us that it is a song.

The 1 indicates style #1, which is Jazz Swing.
