My Gibson Sg Special Has Fantastic Looks And A Com
My Gibson SG Special has fantastic looks and a comfortable neck that just begs to be played. This guitar has a lot of personality and class! Perfect for classic rock like Led Zeppelin. I paid £435 for my one, a bargin at that price!
My compliments. You got a hell of a bargain.

Really Nice To Play, Responds Excellently, Pick Up
Really nice to play, responds excellently, pick ups are awesome, they give you that great SG tone your used to form bands such as Ac Dc. could do with a better when bought, like the SG standards do.

Overall This Gibson Sg Special Looks, Feels And So
Overall this Gibson SG Special looks, feels and sounds great from those heavy 2 soft sounds it can easily cope with those versatile changes buy the flick of the switch, also it is very light so would be perfect on a gig or just rocking in front of the mirror which is why I rate this 10 out of 10!
With Good Modification Its A Good Guitar. Machine
With good modification its a good guitar. machine head are good. frets are easily reached and a good tone isnt too hard to obtain.
Can't agree with you. What year is yours? I know there some who say they have issue's setting it up and tuning. But I set mine up myself and have had no tuning issues since. Resonance and intonation is as fine as you will get, if you set it up right. Let me know if I can help.
Best regards.

It Looks And Sounds Great, It Has A Really Good Fe
It looks and sounds great, it has a really good feel about it what more does a guitar need. I wish people didn't keep mentioning heavy metal when I use it though... oh well
To be honest, it is a wonderful blues instrument. I first played one when I was a kid back in the late sixties. First time I set eye's on it I loved it, but when I heard it played in blues style, I was determined to have it.
That said, Rory Gallagher and many others made the "Strat" famous for blues. I do like Telecasters also. But the SG allows me room to move, as I have chunky finger tips. It offers warm, mellow, rounded tones I find hard to dismiss. Like a voluptuous woman in her prime.
Good luck mate.

Gibson Sg Special Electric Guitars Have Great Soun
Gibson SG Special Electric Guitars have great sound quality. Many different tones, and fast comfortable fret board. Holds tune well, and looks great- (I think that the red finish is the best). Decent sustain easy to get used to. This is a very high quality guitar. I got mine for 1000 at Guitar Center, it was a great deal. The type of music I play with it is rock/metal. It has great pickups for clean tone too. When I was buying this I was a little nervous. I had been playing the guitar for a little more than a year, and I felt like my current guitar ( epiphone les paul starter pack) was holding me back. My advice- if you have the money and really enjoy playing the guitar, and you want to improve you skills, get a Gibson SG Special. I have no regrets with this purchase. However if you are just starting I would recommend getting a cheaper guitar to make sure you like to play first. Oh, and it really impresses your friends or band when you show up with it.

A Great Sounding Guitar But Can Be A Bit Of A One
A great sounding guitar but can be a bit of a one trick pony. Shame Gibson don't include a hard case as with the SG neck this is essential. Good for gigging but watch the tuning.
