Product Description
The Gibson SG Special is one of the most recognisable electric guitars in the world. Renowned for it's sleek double cut design, exceptional playability and fat, snarling P-90 tones, the SG Special returns to the classic design that made it rock royalty in the 1960s!
Construction
The SG Special features Gibson’s signature tried and trusted tonewood combinations. The Mahogany body delivers focused lows and a rich mid-range attack while the set Mahogany neck gives the SG fantastic sustain and warmth despite it's thin design. Adorned with a silky smooth Rosewood fingerboard, you can effortlessly glide up and down the Slim Taper profile neck with unrivalled access to the upper frets.
Electronics
The SG Special is loaded with a pair of P-90 pickups, renowned for their fat snarl when driven and their smooth sweetness when played clean. With individual volume and tone controls for each pickup and a 3-way toggle switch, the SG Special is capable of delivering an array of articulate tones making it incredibly versatile.
Hardware
The SG Special is equipped with a super comfortable compensated wraparound bridge with chrome plating to extend its lifetime before patina sets in. The Graph Tech nut ensures excellent sound transfer and a set of vintage deluxe tuners with white buttons provide reliable tuning stability. This guitar is designed to be played hard and it will not let you down!
