Up for sale, a 2019 Gibson SG Special in near-mint, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original hardshell case, hangtags, and case candy. This SG Special captures the look and feel of an early ‘60s example with a mahogany body and neck, slim taper ‘60s neck profile, a pair of P-90 pickups, and a gloss Faded Pelham Blue nitro lacquer finish.The tonewood complement yields a resonant acoustic response with an authoritative bark and midrange warmth captured by the pair of P-90 pickups. These pickups offer glassy clarity and sparkling treble detail, with an accentuated midrange and rich growl. The bridge pickup has a distinctive bounce and muscle, and toggling towards the neck pickup yields plenty of breadth and warmth, with a thickness that doesn’t lack clarity and takes gain with aplomb. Lightweight at 6lbs 12oz, this SG Special benefits from a professional setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.The mahogany neck has Gibson’s SlimTaper profile, a slender ‘60s-style C-shaped carve with particularly full shoulders, measuring .825” deep at the 1st fret and .920” at the 12th.

The nut measures 1 11/16” in width. On the headstock, the white button double-line Gibson Deluxe tuning machines function smoothly.Electronics include dedicated Volume and Tone knobs for each P-90 pickup, along with a three-way pickup selector. Plastics include the quartet of reflector cap knobs and a four-ply black pickguard, and the chrome-plated compensated wraparound tailpiece shines like new.The gloss Faded Pelham Blue nitro lacquer finish is exceedingly well-kept, with just one tiny nick on the lower bout on top and a couple faint finish scratches in the clear coat on the body as a whole. The gloss on the neck profile is immaculate.The original Gibson USA-branded brown tolex hardshell case with red plush interior is included, along with all the hangtags and case candy.
