10 YEAR EXTENDED WARRANTY SCHEME

The product price includes 5 years' warranty and 30 day money back guarantee.

However, the Gear4music extended warranty scheme provides an enhanced service, and is designed to offer a higher level of protection than many 'free' warranties offered by some retailers and manufacturers.

The highlights of this enhanced warranty service are:

  • Warranty is extended to 10 years from the date of delivery.
  • Our Money Back guarantee is extended from 30 days to 180 days (terms apply after 30 days)
  • Collection and delivery costs are included for the first 2 years in the event of an item becoming faulty
  • Claim 50% cash back on the cost of the policy after 10 years if it has not been used!
  • Warranty is transferable if the item is re-sold
  • Loan or replacement equipment will be provided if the product isn't repaired within 30 days
  • If an item can not be repaired, a similar alternative product or cash discount (as defined in this policy) will be offered
  • The policy can be cancelled within 30 days, and at any time after that for a pro-rata discount

Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided.

For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs.

This enhanced warranty is in addition to the standard Gear4music and manufacturer warranty policies, and the Gear4music terms and conditions of trade. No statement or condition of sale contained within these terms affects or restricts your statutory rights as defined under the Consumer Contracts Regulation 2014.

Gibson SG Special, Vintage Cherry Overview

View this description in Slovene

The Gibson SG Special is here, offering the alluring solid guitar style but with glorious P-90 purr, it presents ample amounts of tone to dig your teeth into. Originally conceived as a slimmed down version of the SG Standard, the Special has carved out its own identity thanks to those single-coil P-90s. They're ferocious when overdriven, glassy and smooth on cleans, and ready to bring a smile to your face.


These pickups combine excellently with a set of hand wired controls that feature Orange Drop capacitors, so you gain precision control over your tone. You can dial in exact changes and blend in sounds as you play, your way. Set with a rapid slim taper mahogany neck and bound rosewood fretboard and you have one mean riff machine. It plays fast, it plays loud, and due to its light, agile feel, you'll be hopping around the stage like Angus Young from AC/DC in no time. Complete with a quality Gibson hardshell case, the SG Special is ready to perform.

Bring the noise with P90s

Bright, punchy and filled with growl, the dual P-90s are the Special's secret weapon. They've been around since the 1940's and have made their mark their mark on music history. Rock, country, jazz and even punk have been blessed by the fierce sonics of the P-90s. Everything you play with be tinged with a vintage, sweet twang, a highly sought-after effect for many guitarists.

There's a three-position switch to choose between neck, middle and bridge positions, each with their own crisp voicing. Flick between them to discover new ways to attack songs and open up solos, as each mode will extract diverse tones from the pickups. Use it in conjunction with the hand wired controls to blend in unique and flavourful sounds as you play.

Slim Taper, built for speed

It's time to enjoy some fretboard freedom. The Special delivers an excellent, responsive feel thanks to its slim taper neck, allowing for seamless transitions up and down the fretboard. Fitting naturally into the palm of your hand, it affords your fingers more room on the board. And of course, the classic double cutaway design gives you unhindered access to the top frets. So don't hold back, because your creativity can reach new heights.

The ideal partner for that slim neck is of course, a rosewood fretboard. Slick and soft to touch, it complements the slim mahogany neck perfectly. It will draw out your best playing and most complex riffs because it's so easy to manoeuvre over. Not only that, but you've also got superb sustain and effortless pitch bends as a result of its medium jumbo-sized frets. Finished to Gibson's high standards, it's a playing surface like no other.

SG style and SG playability

Steal the spotlight. Equipped with twin arches, a teardrop pickguard and an irresistible body shape, the SG Special continues the series' long record of impeccable style. It's finished in a gloss nitrocellulose lacquer and contrasted with a cream binding for that premium, quality look and feel - something that's afforded to only the highest end guitars. It's an instrument that will turn heads, for all the right reasons.

Not only does it look great, but it also boasts an incredible light weight feel. Fatigue? No thanks. The SG Special makes dancing around stage and enduring endless sets an easy task. Don't be burdened by heavy equipment, the Special gives you a nimble body and extra slim neck. There's a tonne of space to express yourself up and down the fretboard, and when paired with the articulate P-90s, the SG gives you the tools to inspire.
