The Gibson SG Faded Series offers a classic take on the iconic SG with a vintage-inspired, worn finish that appeals to players and collectors alike. First introduced in the early 2000s, the SG Faded provides the full tonal range and fast playability of the SG model, all at a more accessible price point. Known for its sleek double-cutaway design, powerful humbucking pickups, and lightweight feel, the SG Faded combines raw, expressive sound with a unique, distressed finish that gives it a well-played, vintage character right out of the box. Its affordability and authentic vibe have made it a favourite among musicians looking for the timeless Gibson SG experience without the glossy finish of higher-end models, and its limited production has added to its appeal among collectors.
