67 SG Special Reissue Electric Guitar with P-90 Pickups

This 67 Reissue SG Special Electric Guitar features the powerful voice of 2 P-90 pickups. Their big, raunchy sound will take you right back to your favorite progressive rock and psychedelic bands. Gibson has limited the production run of this special guitar to only 400 units.

The Special has always represented a combination of looks, functionality, and value. This SG maintains this tradition. Under its attractive faded finish, it is the traditional SG, with mahogany body and neck, tune-o-matic/stopbar bridge.

A Little SG History

In 1961, the Les Paul was redesigned with a thinner body and 2 sharp cutaway horns that making the upper frets more accessible while lowering production costs. The new guitar was popular, but Les Paul the guitarist did not like it and asked to have his name removed. Gibson renamed the model the "SG" which was short for "solid guitar". Though Les Paul's name was officially removed from the model in 1961, the plastic Les Paul nameplates (positioned between the rhythm pickup and fingerboard) were in abundance in the Gibson factory and SG models having these nameplates were built and sold by Gibson up to end of 1963. SGs have been the choice of world-class artists such as Pete Townsend, Eric Clapton, Tony Iommi, and Angus Young.
