The Story

1963 SG Special Reissue Lightning Bar VOS Cherry Red

SG Specials: a classy bound rosewood fretboard, wraparound tailpiece for that nice and loose feel, and two fat sounding P-90s. You can't go wrong! This is a ’63 SG Special reissue, built with a VOS Cherry Red finish, and a lightning bar bridge to assist with intonation.

Includes: Hardshell Case, Certificate of Authenticity and Paperwork
