What's special about this item?

Feature: What it does:
Mahogany body and neck Rich, warm tone with focused midrange
Dark rosewood fretboard Hand-selected for optimal tone and beauty
'57 Classic and '57 Classic Plus pickups Rich, vintage tone that's warm, deep, and edgy
Sideways Vibrola Vintage designed vibrato system

The Gibson SGS3 takes the timeless elegance of the "Black Beauty" and applies it to the iconic SG body style to create a stunning homage to this early-'60s rocker. The classic SG body is crafted from solid mahogany, with asymmetrical pointed horns and a beveled edge for comfort, and looks absolutely killer in Ebony nitro with 5-ply black pickguard and black Top-Hat knobs. Gold-plated hardware -- including a vintage-style Sideways Vibrola updated for improved performance -- completes the Custom look, while three of Gibson's popular '57 Classic humbuckers ensure unparalleled tone. The glued-in mahogany neck has a SlimTaper profile for that fast, slick playing feel that rockers have come to know and love, with a bound one-piece rosewood fingerboard with acrylic trapezoid inlays. Protect it in a Vintage Brown hardshell case from gig to gig, and you're ready to rock out in grand style.

I have the 2014 model I love the look don’t take it out much to gigs coz it’s to pretty don’t want to scratch it.. but the thing that’s worried seems like the neck is longer it’s not but feels like it’s 3 in longer But it’s a great looking axe...
