SG Special with one tone knobs.

I might buy this SG Special tomorrow. What’s the deal with single tone knob models? Are these legit or is it some shitty corner-cutting model?

Hmmm. Gibson DID produce something like that with the same name, but the knobs were in line . Somone found this at a GC a few years ago.

Also some jabber about a push/pull pot.

$25 for that case is a steal!

The SG Special HH was a model made for GC and MF. It was a lower end model with a wraparound bridge. Nice guitars. I used to have one. I'd gladly buy another.

I like my Epi SG Jr that I snagged used at Sam Ash for $50...:rawk:






I dropped in a Kent Armstrong HB size P90 and a new set of tuners and it just smokes!

I went ahead and bought it. It’s not an amazing guitar, but it’s not bad, either. I’ll give a few weeks and if I don’t like it I’ll sell it for $450 and keep the case.

those SGs (the specials with three knobs) were made in the mid 80s. Nothing wrong with that one!

Looks pretty nice.

I'd hit it. Only thing I'd change is the pickguard for a BWB one.

I dig it like this. The BWB guards look great with some finishes, but I think black makes a solid stripped-down look here.

Looking cool from here
