Jaw-dropping Reissue of a Rock 'n' Roll Icon

For the 1963 SG Special Reissue, Gibson traveled back in time to the early days of this legendary guitar. At its inception, the essential elements were in place: the richly toned all-mahogany body, the comfortable and quick mahogany neck, the in-your-face tone, and, of course, the signature body shape which has become visually synonymous with rock 'n' roll. The 1963 SG Special Reissue includes period-specific details that heap on the vintage character, including a 1961 authentic Thin D-Shape neck with a hide glue fit for increased resonance, an old-school Lightning Bar wraparound tailpiece, hand-wired electronics, and custom soapbar P-90 pickups — a favorite of guitarists. Check out the 1963 SG Special Reissue from Gibson and put your hands on a piece of Rock 'n' Roll history!
