Equipped with a set of hand-wired controls, the Gibson SG Special Reissue offers the ability to shape your sound in various ways. Featured is a duo of Custom Soapbar P-90 pickups, offering a unique and distinct tonal quality. These electronics are designed to deliver raw and gritty voicings that are perfect for rock, punk, and blues music. With this Gibson Custom, you'll have all the power and punch you need to make your music stand out from the rest.
This model features two tone and two volume controls, along with a three-way pickup selector switch. These provide a broad range of tonal options, making it easy for you to discover the ideal sound for your playing style. Of particular note are the tone controls, which allow you to adjust the neck and bridge pickups independently, enabling you to customise the voice of each Soapbar according to your preference. With these controls, you can create a diverse range of harmonics, ranging from warm and rich to sharp, piercing leads.
Designed with a set of features that prioritise playability, the 1963 SG Special Reissue offers an exceptional experience. The guitar's mahogany body and neck provide a sturdy base, while the Indian rosewood fingerboard boasts pearloid dot inlays and authentic medium jumbo frets for a comfortable practice. What's more, the 1960s SlimTaper C shape provides a thin profile that is ideal for fast playing and allows you to access the upper frets with ease. And you can guarantee your solos will sound sumptuous as the long tenon, hide glue fit joint ensures maximum contact between the neck and body, resulting in improved sustain and resonance.
The hardware is a testament to the guitar's exceptional craftsmanship. The Kluson single line tuning machines with white buttons offer precise tuning capabilities, allowing you to maintain the perfect pitch throughout your performance. Its nickel hardware finish gives the guitar a timeless and classic aesthetic, while the 3-ply black/white/black pickguard adds an extra element of visual appeal. Every detail has been carefully considered to ensure that it complements the guitar's overall design and provides you with the highest quality playing experience. It's these levels of exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail that has made Gibson a trusted name in the world of guitars.
Alongside your Gibson SG Special Reissue, you also receive a black/yellow hardshell case that is designed to provide maximum protection for the guitar during storage and transport. The Custom logo is prominently displayed on the exterior of the case, adding a touch of elegance and class to the overall presentation. Inside, the case is lined with a plush, soft material that cradles the guitar and protects it from scratches and other damage. There is also ample storage space for accessories such as picks, cables, and straps. It is built to last, with high-quality materials and sturdy construction that ensure the guitar remains secure and in pristine condition. Peace of mind for owners who want to keep their instrument safe and secure.
