Review: When I decided to invest in a quality electric guitar, I didn't have more than a thousand dollars to spare. I wasn't necessarily looking for a bargain...just something I could afford at the time. So, I start trying out some Gibson SGs. As you can...

The Bottom Line: This is an excellent way for a person with limited means to own a Gibson.

Review: Tony Iommi. Angus Young. Carols Santana. What do all of these names evoke in the guitar player's mind? The Gibson SG, of course. Each of the above skilled players, and many not named, gave the Gibson SG its popularity and stage character in the 60?s...

Review: Introduction
I have owned and played many guitars over the years but one model that has slipped past me until recently was the Gibson SG. Don't get me wrong, I like the SG. It is just that I really like my well worn Gibson Les Paul and always...

The Bottom Line: The Gibson SG Special is a great guitar, and better than the Gibson Les Paul Special in my opinion.

Review: The Gibson SG Special and the Gibson Les Paul Special are the least expensive variants of each guitar in the Gibson line. I wasn't so hot about the Les Paul since Gibson ditched the archtop design, but the Gibson SG Special is definitely a different...

The Bottom Line: If you're looking for that '70 rock sound but cannot afford a more expensive guitar - search no more.

Review: I've played a couple of different SG's and it's about time to do a review. SG special one of the cheapest Gibson guitars. First it was introduced as Les Paul's upgrade in 1959. Gibson stopped Les Pauls' production and put a new model under the same...

Review: I used to use the practice rooms at the military base which was open to military personnel and guests (like me) and they provided instruments in soundproof rooms with instruments. They had Yamaha drums, a Squier P-Bass, a Squier strat with locking...

The Bottom Line: Light, versatile, good tones, money well spent.

Review: This is sort of an unusual version of the lower priced SG Special in that it features an ebony fingerboard and gold hardware. Like the Special, it is equipped with the 490T bridge and 490R neck humbucker pickups. I like these fine, although if given...

The Bottom Line: If you havent tried one then do so - soon!

Review: First of all I must confess that I fell in love with SGs the very first time I played one. This is the third one I have owned. The Special is the cheapest of the range but it's the details that have been cut not the quality of materials. Its my...
