Description
What’s special about this guitar: The SG Special Faded is a phenomenal sounding, great playing Gibson that is highly affordable and every bit as reliable as more expensive models. Some of the features of the faded SG included a pre-faded nitrocellulose worn cherry finish, 490T and 490R humbuckers left uncovered and a ridiculously comfortable rounded 50s profile neck. This guitar has great looks, a great feel and a fantastic sound.
Condition: This guitar is in great shape! There are only a few light surface scratches throughout the entire guitar; most of which are on the pickguard. The fingerboard and frets have hardly any play wear and tons of life left in them. The neck is nice and straight with super comfortable action and the truss rod functions perfectly. All electronics and parts are original and in perfect working condition.
