NGD! 43 Year Old Gibson SG Special!!
Still Can't believe I own it! 1967 (same year I was born) Gibson SG Special!!! Unbelievable condition, 43 year old all original classic!! The P-90's in this freaking sound AMAZING!!!! I will take some better pics tomorrow! SO freaking HAPPY!!!!!!!!
I got this off a friend that started buying Gibson guitars from the (50's - 60's) over 25-30 years ago (has around 40 vintage Gibson/Fender guitars as well as some killer amps from the same period). He paid $250.00 for this guitar 22 years ago :rollin
Man my camera skills suck I wish I knew how to take half as good of pics as some of you. Maybe it's time for a new camera 8o

Wow! That's about as good as it gets. I'm hoping to score an SG Classic one of these days if I can find one. Gibson needs to hire someone to overhaul their model-naming procedure .

Nice one! That's beautiful! Are you keeping the vibrola on there or taking it off? I have a 68 SG Jr that had that too, and I took it off and put on the compensated bridge:

Mine's seen a lot more use than yours, but I love it still:

Insanely hot, an SG with P90s and a bound neck is probably one of the few guitars I'd ever buy now that I have my jag. Congrats!
