  • Im about to get this one!! I've played it many times at GC feels and sound great!! ---Alternative,rock,punk,pop!!­!!

  • Comment removed

  • best guitar ive ever played and im  gettin one fo crimbo , YEAH!!!!!!!

  • Standard SG or Special SG? Any suggestions?

  • I just got mine today :)

  • hope mine sounds this good when i get it today damn i cant wait....

  • hahaha yes! a review that uses the guitar I'm getting through the Amp I already have! PERFECT!

  • This still looks red though :( I wanted brown. Like a no finish just the mahogony body color

  • yeah rock n roll!

  • Hey guys i havee a gibson sg special faded with a hard case and a wah pedal for only $1300 im located in australia victoria

  • @jhonnyfifafreak11 *CHOKE* wow its 720$ here in canada for the guitar and case

  • Comment removed

  • what's the difference between the faded sg special and the sg special??

    is it just the finish? because there are like $300 between them

  • @eam1239 To be honest, the finish is the only difference. Same pickups and hardware all the way around, same wood, etc.

  • @KamikaziPanda17 I think that it would sound nice, but I just don't think an AC30 is a great "distortion" amp. You should look into tube amps with 6L6 or EL34 Valves, which give a Mesa kind of sound. The AC 30 is kind of "vintage" clean. Never the less, you would get great clean and crunchy tones out of it. Maybe you should think of a Tiny Terror also... I don't know, its up to you.

  • That doesn't sound half bad even being played through the crappy MG.

  • wow , i find these things for less than 500 on the internet all the time, yet the gibson website wants 1200 for one, dont buy from the gibson website.

  • @motlencore89 i got mine for 699 from musicians friend.

  • Doesn't Sound Worth $2,000.00!!!

  • @DylanBStringer91 this guitar is less that 600 bucks you fucking troll.

  • @motlencore89 It's $600.00 Because The Paint Didn't Turn Out Right!!! It Still Has The Same SG Sound!!!

  • Would this be good on a Vox AC30? im thinking of getting one, i have a Fender American Special and an Epiphone Nick Valensi Riviera P94, and im looking to get a guitar that will sound heavy and great with distortion.

    thanks

  • whats this like conpared to a standard?

  • I'm putting grover tuners on mine and getting some pick up covers

  • i have this guitar. love it!

  • i have this guitar, but i replacedd the pickups with emgs and got a gray pearloid pickguard as well as a bigsby to go on mine. it sounds sick but ever since i put the bigsby on it goes out of tune more...never did before the bigsby so im getting new tuners soon...any suggestions on good tuners???

  • are the pickups strong on the SG or not?? plz tell me :)

  • @KingOfShadows1500 pups are strong but they sound very 'muddy' on this particular faded SG. Specially when playing clean. With gain it's a real beast :-)

  • sounds like fluffhead in the beginning :D 

  • @MonkeyRocks666 If its says gibson And its a fake one you can go wrong;)

  • i want a sound like krieger from the doors, is this the guitar for me?? as the sg that he used was much more expensive and a different model?

  • this guitar represents my dreams!!! :D

  • I have this guitar. It's amazing. I changed string gauges on it from the Gibson factory standard 10-46, to my personal preference of 11-58, and the neck is doing just fine. It's a SWET guitar. Awesome action, pick-ups sound awesome, very versatile, very fast playing guitar. Only complaint is this thing WILL NOT stay in tune. I'm replacing the tuners soon.

  • awesome playing and review my friend.

    could you help me on a little doubt I have?

    I once saw a Gibson SG faded model, and the body was made of several wood parts, you could see that cuz its faded painting. That looks terrible.

    You know more than me, I wanna know if the Gibson SG Special is made like that too.

  • Is it hard to play fast notes high on the fretboard with that neck?

  • Goin' to town on that distortion boy loll.

  • what are you playing at 2:05??

    sounds really cool, i'm thinking o buying one of these but is it better to dave moneyfor a standard??

  • @reint88 not really they sounds equal just the finish is different ..i got the change to buy either one and i tested them both out i say go for a special faded . there as good with a lower price budget

  • @reint88 cocain by eric clapton

  • I saw this guitar a few days ago at Guitar Center. I picked it up, plugged it, and fell in love. It wad in red which I liked, but I liked the black more. I wish it had a thinner neck though.

  • does this guitar have good action

  • What's the best V shaped guitar in the £300-£500 price range?

  • @MeanGreenMovies LTD or jackson

  • Looking to buy a 61' reissue. Are they any good?

  • Eric Clapton: Cocaine @ 2:00 

  • I have one...

  • should i buy this guitar or epihpone SG brown?

  • @johntygesen I'd say the Gibson SG. It shall keep it's value, and you can expect it to have a better build quality than the Epiphone, but Epiphone is certainly not bad either. It kind of depends on you, which guitar plays better/sounds better for your music styles.

  • i like the worn more which is convenient cause they cost less

  • i heard it goes out of tune really quickly, is that true, i think im going to get one.

  • @PsychoKath293 nope, not true. fixed bridge guitars stay in tune if you use them right.

  • @PsychoKath293

    i don't believe it

  • @AlmasMusic no its not true

  • @PsychoKath293 well actually nevada music is somewhat wrong, the tuners on it are not very good for gibson tuners.  replace them with die cast grovers, the plsatic on these are cheap. but otherwise no i have this guitar in red, much better looking in red IMOP but the wood darkens over time

  • @remalicious123

    Yeah, I played one today. It's weird having such cheap tuners on such a well-built guitar.

  • @PsychoKath293 i got one yesterday and i had no problem with the tuning

  • @PsychoKath293 they dont.... i have one and they stay in tune its anazing. i changed the pickups to a dirty fingers in the neck and a 500T in the bridge and tophat knobs with metal inserts and a new truss rod cover

  • @PsychoKath293

    The strings get caught in the nut. If you apply some Graphitall (GHS), it will stay in tune just fine. The stock tuners are great - leave `em in.

  • @PsychoKath293 i have one and it stays in tune just fine. i would tell anyone to buy this awesome guitar. most beautiful guitar i've ever seen. i play through a marshall mg30 dfx. really freakin screams in overdrive. beautiful clean sound also. get one while you can at $699.00.

  • such a bad amp, the guitar is awesome though

  • I'm thinking about getting this guitar soon. I've off and on wanted one for awhile, and feel like it's about time since I have a drummer again and my Les Paul wears on my back. These are substantially lighter aren't they?

  • Nice. If only I could convince my girlfriend I need another Gibson, considering I just bought one on Saturday

  • Is this worth it to buy? I know, I know, any Gibson SG is worth it to buy, but I'm thinking about getting this or a Fender Telocaster.

  • Hehe, I have the same setup; a Gibson SG Special Faded Worn Brown and a Marshall MG100DFX (The older generation) I was really lucky getting both of them. I got them at completely different occasions and stores, but both were the last ones they had, so I got them at kickass prices! :) Love 'em both~

  • why is the ebony sg special more expensive? :|

  • Gloss finished models are more expensive than the worn finishes....

  • @NevadaMusicUK Just seems backwards eh? I mean the worn finishes are so much nicer to have in your hands.

  • @guitargenius3 right, but y spend money on nitro finish, good bye dude, and rock on :d

  • @guitargenius3

    I was thinking the same thing. I've owned nitro finished Gibson guitars and recently picked up a worn brown. The neck feels amazing and the guitar seems to resonate more due to the lack of thick glossy nitro.

  • @NevadaMusicUK are the gloss ones the same pickups

  • @NevadaMusicUK

    Wow, love your playing and tone of this rig from 45 seconds onwards.

    Superb! Best, Jonas

  • @NevadaMusicUK which makes 0 sense because the glossed ebony with the dot inlays and uncoverd PUs looks like shit.

  • whats the best gibson special faded or musicman ax40?

  • @123karsten123123 ax40. But you'll need to replace a pickup if you don't like the sound.

  • what kind of amp is that like the complete name........... not just marshall

  • freeze it at :20 and you can see that it's the Marshall MG100fx. means 100 watts with effects

  • @Marine13101209 pretty sure it is a marshall mg50fx

  • Gold stars all round, It is the MG100fx combo.

  • @NevadaMusicUK an mg100dfx???? my oh my :] i have one and it dont sound like that :] must be the guitar :] is it me or does the sg suit the finish better than the lp???

  • @brimill1980 Yeah. The lp doesn't look as nice. Or maybe both of us need our eyes checked?

  • @MrJackanthony oddly enough ive just booked myself or an eye examination :] hmmmm???? :]

  • @brimill1980 Hahaha. Mmmm Im hoping that's a coincidence :P

  • @MrJackanthony fingers crossed :]

  • is this a special wb?

  • i got this guitar a couple of weeks ago

    i barely put the thing down

  • im stuck between geting this and an esp ltd ec 401vf ove played this but not the esp, but the esp has duncans stock...

  • I own this guitar. It's mega awsum

  • simply a beauty

  • can't wait to get mine for chirstmas

  • nice video im buyin´one of them just like your´s a brown one.,

  • I have one of these and it is my main guitar I love it I did change the tuning machines to locking ones though because I change my strings when they need it and I don't like the Gibson tuners I also put string saver saddles on but the pups are original and I really like the different sounds you can get with the volume and tone for each pup.

  • Hey can u guys help me out? I cant make my mind up on buying this sg or the reissue gretsch corvette i love gibson and gretsh, any body have any feedback?

  • gibson for sure.

  • You got a raw guitar face xD :)

  • Why would i get one for £499 when i could get one from amazon for £150?

  • £599 on Amazon dude. £150 would either be fake/mistake/second hand/a miracle.

  • make sure u get a new toggle switch. Those gibson faded guitars have bad switchs. Mine is going out now.

  • I would get one of these except this doesn't have the binding, which to me, feels much better on my hands.

  • in the info he put ADCD instead of ACDC lol nice guitar i got to try one and am saving my money to buy one, so the epiphone is going to have to tide me over

  • thnx for post

  • Sounds very Gibson/Marshally! Great for AcDc type of music! Thx for the post!

  • well he's is playing the GIBSON through a marshall

    haha

  • yea an MG though...
