Product Description
A true return to the no‑nonsense, straight‑up rock machine that made the original so iconic, played on and downright adored. Since the early ‘60s, the Gibson SG Special carved out its own spot in the SG family — sitting perfectly between the stripped-back Junior and the fully‑loaded SG Standard. It had the attitude of the Junior with just enough extra flair to hold its own, and before long it was everywhere — powering some of rock’s most unforgettable riffs!
This Epiphone early ‘60s‑style SG Special absolutely nails that vintage vibe and the sound you’ve heard on countless classic rock records.
Vintage vibe, modern playability
Part of Epiphone’s refreshed Inspired by Gibson range, the SG Special P‑90 gives you everything you’d expect from a proper SG: a lightweight double‑cutaway all‑Mahogany body and a fast, comfy ’60s SlimTaper Mahogany neck. Up top, you get a bound Rosewood fingerboard with 22 medium jumbo frets and pearloid dot inlays.
The vintage‑correct ‘60s Kalamazoo headstock comes fitted with Epiphone Deluxe tuners with ivory buttons, a Graph Tech nut and a mother‑of‑pearl Epiphone logo to top it all off.
Pure P‑90 power
At the heart of the SG Special P‑90 are a pair of Epiphone P‑90 PRO Soapbars — famous for that snarling midrange bite and incredibly dynamic response. Roll your volume back for sparkling cleans or dime it for gritty, growling overdrive that cuts through any mix. Each pickup has its own volume and tone control, plus a 3‑way toggle, giving you buckets of tonal flexibility.
Rock‑solid hardware
Staying true to the original recipe, Epiphone have gone with a compensated wraparound bridge, delivering impressive sustain and dependable intonation while keeping the vintage aesthetic intact. And yes, it even comes with a premium gig bag, so it’s ready for the road the moment you are!
Features
- ‘60s SlimTaper neck profile: This neck carve feels instantly comfortable, giving you that quick, effortless playability the early ’60s Gibsons were known for. Whether you’re chugging rhythm parts or ripping through lead lines, it keeps your hands fresh and fast for hours of playing.
- 22 medium jumbo frets: These frets make bending an absolute breeze and give you loads of confidence when navigating the upper register. Whether you’re playing power chords or flying into lead lines, they offer a smooth, modern playing feel.
- Epiphone P-90 PRO Soapbar pickups: Dish out everything from sparkling cleans to snarling, attitude‑packed overdrive, all with that unmistakable P‑90 bite. They’re dynamic, responsive and full of character, giving you a huge tonal palette without ever losing that vintage edge.
- Lightning Bar compensated wraparound bridge: Bolted straight into the Mahogany body, this bridge serves up rock‑solid intonation and exceptional sustain. It keeps things simple, resonant and gloriously direct — perfect for players who want maximum tone with minimum fuss.
- Included premium gig bag: Lightweight, durable and ready for the road, this gig bag keeps your SG safe between rehearsals, gigs and late‑night jams. It’s the ideal grab‑and‑go companion for players who are always on the move.
