Gibson SG Special

Date of Review:  Nov 4, 2000

This guitar has a retail price of about $999, but you can very easily find one for $650 or less. The...

Special by name , special by nature!

Date of Review:  Dec 1, 2004
The Bottom Line: If you havent tried one then do so - soon!
Review: First of all I must confess that I fell in love with SGs the very first time I played one. This is the third one I have owned. The Special is the cheapest of the range but it's the details that have been cut not the quality of materials. Its my...

Classic SG tone without alot of fluff

Date of Review:  Aug 11, 2005
The Bottom Line: The Gibson SG special is a great choice if you want an american built guitar with a great reputation for quality for under $1000.
Review: Introduction
I have owned and played many guitars over the years but one model that has slipped past me until recently was the Gibson SG. Don't get me wrong, I like the SG. It is just that I really like my well worn Gibson Les Paul and always...

Gibson SG Special

Date of Review:  Feb 12, 2002
The Bottom Line: If you want a good guitar for a good price buy it.
Review: I bought this guitar from someone on Ebay for $550. It came to me in brand new condition New Old Stock.
I am running it with a Peavey XXX and a Marshall JCM 800 with a Sustain Punch Creamy Dreamer.
This guitar has a great look to it. The...

SG Special Faded

Date of Review:  Apr 24, 2002
The Bottom Line: This guitar should have perfect scores all around, but no matter how much I love it, I'm left wondering: are rough surfaces to be expected on a new guitar?
Review: Mahogany body & neck with ebony fingerboard, MOP crescent moon markers, set neck, dual humbuckers, you know the stuff ...

The positive: it is feather light, great for those of us with neck/shoulder problems and the overall looks are...

SG Simplicity

Date of Review:  May 25, 2001
The Bottom Line: The SG Special is a great overall guitar at an affordable price for a Gibson. If you need Gibson tone for under $700.00, then this might be your ticket.
Review: Tony Iommi. Angus Young. Carols Santana. What do all of these names evoke in the guitar player's mind? The Gibson SG, of course. Each of the above skilled players, and many not named, gave the Gibson SG its popularity and stage character in the 60?s...
