Use the tapeinfo command instead

tapeinfo -f /dev/sg0

This works on any sg device

 # tapeinfo -f /dev/sg0
Product Type: CD-ROM
Vendor ID: 'LITE-ON '
Product ID: 'DVDRW LDW-851S  '
Revision: 'GS0C'
Attached Changer: No
SCSI ID: 0
SCSI LUN: 0
Ready: no

# tapeinfo -f /dev/sg1
Product Type: Disk Drive
Vendor ID: 'ATA     '
Product ID: 'ST3750330AS     '
Revision: 'SD04'
Attached Changer: No
SerialNumber: '            3QK02QVL'
SCSI ID: 0
SCSI LUN: 0
Ready: yes

I don't have a tape drive connected here at home so I can not show you
tape or changer results but I know this works at work.
