How do I tell if a Gibson SG is a standard or a special? This one is a 2017.

Re: Gibson SG
Standards have trapezoid inlays and binding on the neck. (And usually covered pickups) Specials have the plain neck( no binding, dot inlays) like that one - that ones a special

Like BekindRewind said, standards have binding and trapezoid inlays. The specials and fadeds are great guitars too though. Other than cosmetically, they only really differ by pickups."An intellectual says a simple thing in a hard way. An artist says a hard thing in a simple way. " - Bukowski

Re: Gibson SG
If the neck binding is done correctly (no space, not even a click, between fret ends and binding nibs) then a Standard is a good instrument. Otherwise I would go with the special or an Epi.Originally Posted by IanBallard
