Up for grabs is a rare 2013 Gibson Custom Shop SG Custom Fire Tiger, topped with the most gorgeous quilt maple, gold hardware, ebony fingerboard, and genuine mother-of-pearl Super 400-style split-block inlays with a Custom m.o.p. split-diamond on the headstock. This guitar is completely original, without a scratch, and has zero issues. No cracks, breaks, or repairs; frets are full of life; binding, hardware, and electronics are pristine and function perfectly. Furthermore, all accessories are included and in perfect condition, including original hardshell case, certificate of authenticity, etc. No permanent modifications have been made. I did change out the white neck-tenon cover and rear control plate to black for purely aesthetic reasons, but the factory-original white plastic parts will be included. Also, i never installed the matching (white) pickguard - why would anybody want to drill holes into that beautiful quilted maple top just to cover it up with a plain piece of plastic?!? Anyway, Gibson decided to include one for some reason, and it, too, will ship to you, unattached :). This guitar cost well over $6,ooo new, and only 25 were ever made. I will ship free within the CONUS/Lower 48, professionally packed, double-boxed, and fully insure. Bidders with low or substantial negative feedback, please contact me before bidding. This auction open only to bidders in the USA with a verified PayPal address. Please check my positive feedback, ask any and all questions upfront, and best of luck! The following description is from Sweetwater: Gorgeous Quilt Maple Topped SG! The extremely limited-edition Gibson Custom SG Custom solidbody electric guitar is a gorgeous and elegant instrument. The first time you see this sleek, iconic axe, you'll be blown away by its unbelievable quilt maple top. You'll also love its lightning-fast playability - courtesy of its SlimTaper neck carve. The deep double cutaway gives you free access all the way up the bound ebony fretboard. The long-tenon mahogany neck is set with hot glue hide for killer vintage vibe. And a pair of '57 Classic humbuckers serve up mountains of immense, sustaining tone. If you're into guitars that look and play amazing, then you need the limited-edition, quilt maple topped Gibson Custom SG Custom! Gibson Custom SG Custom Solidbody Electric Guitar at a Glance:
Solid quilt maple body gives this SG extra spank and phenomenal good looks
'57 Classic humbuckers deliver spot-on PAF tone
SlimTaper neck profile for lightning-fast playability
Solid quilt maple body gives this SG extra spank and phenomenal good looks
Made from toneful mahogany topped with stunning quilt maple, this SG Custom is arguably one of Gibson's best-looking guitars to date. But good looks aren't all that you get from this unconventional SG. With the lighter weight and extreme hardness maple has to offer, the SG Supra resonates brilliantly, adding extra bite and a cutting edge to your tone. And its good looks are sure to turn heads. We've seen thousands of amazing looking guitars at Sweetwater and the quilt maple topped Gibson Custom SG Custom is one of the best yet! '57 Classic humbuckers deliver spot-on PAF tone
The pickups that Gibson spec'd for the SG Custom are as true to the sound of the original SG model as it gets. That's because Gibson engineered their '57 Classic humbuckers to capture the warmth, smooth playing dynamics, and overall character of their breakthrough PAFs. When you think of the slightly rude sound of classic rock, you're already imagining the fat, snarling tone you'll hear when you play your SG Standard through a tube amp cranked to 11. SlimTaper neck profile for lightning-fast playability
The Gibson SG is famous for its comfortable, fast-action neck, and the SG Custom doesn't disappoint. Whether you're chording down low or soloing up high, this guitar's SlimTaper neck profile always feels just right. With its ebony fingerboard and iconic double-horned cutaway that gives you easy access to all 22 frets, the SG Custom is a lean, classic rock machine.
