Despite its more minimalistic approach, it quickly became associated with some of rock’s most memorable riffs and performances. Today’s SG Special honors that storied past with a pair of fat-sounding P-90 pickups and a slim, contoured mahogany body that makes it a go-to choice for players seeking raw, unfiltered rock tone and unsurpassed playability.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eRight out of the included hardshell case, the SG Special feels like a well-worn classic. The bound rosewood fretboard and mahogany neck’s SlimTaper™ profile deliver effortless playability, giving easy access to fast lead lines as well as complex chords. And, of course, the iconic double-cutaway design, with its signature pointed horns and deeply beveled edges, grants completely unfettered access to the entire length of the fretboard.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe SG Special comes equipped with a pair of Soapbar P-90 pickups, renowned for their snarly mids and superb dynamic response. Dial back your volume for chiming cleans or crank it up for overdriven textures that retain clarity and definition. Hand-wired electronics with dedicated volume and tone controls for each pickup allow precise tonal shaping, with Orange Drop® capacitors in the tone circuit, ensuring stable, precise performance. A compensated Wraparound bridge echoes the vintage roots of the SG Special while ensuring solid intonation and impressive sustain, and Vintage Deluxe tuners with white buttons keep the look authentically old-school, with chrome hardware complements that exude timeless Gibson style.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eAltogether, this SG Special stands as a nod to the instrument’s rebellious roots. From garage rock to blues to heavy riffs, its timeless design and sonic signature remain as relevant and inspiring today as they were decades ago.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch4\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBody\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eBody Style: SG\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBody Shape: SG\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBody Material: Mahogany\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBinding: Single Ply Cream, Fretboard\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBody Finish: Gloss Nitrocellulose Lacquer\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eProfile: SlimTaper\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eScale Length: 628.65 mm \/ 24.75 in\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFingerboard Material: Indian Rosewood\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFingerboard Radius: 304.8 mm \/ 12 in\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNeck Material: Mahogany\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFret Count: 22\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFrets: Medium Jumbo\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNut Material: Graph Tech\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNut Width: 43.053 mm \/ 1.695 in\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eEnd Of Board Width: 57.4 mm \/ 2.259 in\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eInlays: Acrylic Dot\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eJoint: Glued In, Set Neck\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHardware\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eFinish: Chrome\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBridge: Compensated Wraparound\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTuning Machines: Vintage Deluxe with White Button\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePickguard: Black 5-ply\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTruss Rod: Adjustable\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTruss Rod Cover: 2-ply Bell; Black and White\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eControl Knobs: Black Top Hat with Silver Reflector\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSwitch Tip: Cream\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSwitch Washer: Black\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eStrap Buttons: 2\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePickup Covers: Black\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eElectronics\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eNeck Pickup: P-90\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBridge Pickup: P-90\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eControls: 2 Volume, 2 Tone, Hand-wired with Orange Drop Capacitors\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePickup Selector: 3-way Toggle\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOutput Jack: 1\/4\"\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMiscellaneous\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eStrings Gauge: .010, .013, .017, .026, .036, .046\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCase: Hardshell\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAccessories: Includes Gibson Accessory Kit\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cbr\u003e    Manufacturer: Gibson\u003cbr\u003eModel: SGSP00VECH1\u003cbr\u003eSKU: I680091-N-0-WHXD\u003cbr\u003eUPC: 711106069272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWe are Musictoner Musictoner\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSince 1958, Chuck Levin’s Musictoner has been the trusted destination for musicians and audio professionals across Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C.
