Yes, it is. The same Gibson. Only not Les Paul, with whom many people associate this brand, but another model - SG, which in the shape of the case is a cross between a superstrat and LP, but has characteristic cutout radii, which are essentially the hallmark of SG. For its price, the tool is practically priceless, forgive us for the pun readers.

threshold

The SG Special 2016 T uses a Graph Tech self-lubricating graphite nut that stays in tune even on steep passages.

Pickups

The Rhythm and Lead Tribute humbuckers equipped with Alnico magnets convey all shades of sound very juicy and legible, both on a clean channel and on an overdrive.

Wood

The body of the SG Special 2016 T is made from a single piece of mahogany, and the rosewood fingerboard is slightly thicker than the standard. Throw in another glued neck joint and you get an incredibly deep sustain.

Manual setting

Each SG Special 2016 T is hand-tuned and polished by Gibson to be ready to use right out of its case. For which many experienced guitarists will gladly add another plus to the karma of these American guys.

Coating

Over time, more and more the scales tilt in favor of coating guitars with polyurethane varnishes, which, unlike the good old "nitrox", are more resistant to abrasion and not so harmful when applied. They don’t understand, stupid ones, that the whole value of nitro-lacquer lies in these very scuffs. Guitars with a nitro finish become painfully vintage over time, and they sound more interesting, due to the fact that nitro varnish creates a very thin protective film on the wood, which does not affect the sound qualities of the rock as much as polyurethane does.

Equipment

Of the other nice buns of the SG Special 2016 T, it is worth noting the presence of a combo amplifier and a thick lined case in the kit with the tool.

In general, on a scale of 10, the guitar can be safely rated at 10. Not everyone may like the shape of the body, but, as they say, these are trifles compared to the world revolution, which Gibson has made more than once, inventing its excellent guitars.
