Classic SG Styling: When the “SG” double cutaway electric guitar was first released, it was intended to take the place of the Les Paul, which was discontinued throughout most of the 60s. Lightweight yet powerful, the SG became a hard rock classic all its own and was embraced by a wide range of players including Eric Clapton, the Allman Brothers, Tony Iommi of Black Sabbath, and Pete Townshend of The Who. The new SG-Special VE™ has the same iconic design with a Poplar body with a Mahogany veneer and a black pickguard. The bolt-on Mahogany neck has a 1960's SlimTaper™ D profile, a standard SG scale length of 24.75”, a Rosewood fingerboard with pearloid dot inlays, and 22 medium jumbo frets. The “Clipped Ear" style headstock has a 60s era Epiphone logo in silver and a “2017" Edition logo on the back of headstock. • MFSKU EGSVCHVCH1 • UPC 711106701127
