Gibson SG Special Ebony BRUGT

The SG began life in 1961 as a redesigned “Les Paul” before taking on the SG (Solid Guitar) name. The Special variant has always delivered the essentials of the SG design—mahogany construction, set neck, humbuckers, and simple controls—at a more accessible price point.

This 2011 example in Ebony has medium play wear, with a fair few dings from use, plus typical pick swirls. Frets are like new with no visible wear, so there’s plenty of life left. It comes with the original Gibson gig bag. Weight is 2900g. The neck is a nice chunky medium.
