Una de las auténticas ovejas negras de Gibson!!
Bien conocida es la historia de ésta serie y todo lo que la rodea...
Cada vez más difíciles de conseguir, son catalogadas como una gran mancha en la historia de Gibson por la manera en la que se lanzaron éstas series.
He leído muchas críticas y opiniones en distintos foros, pero nunca he conocido a nadie que realmente haya tenido o pasado por sus manos ninguna de éstas guitarras, yo tengo 2 una Flying y ésta SG, son guitarras sencillamente espectaculares, tanto por su historia, como por sus características.
Llevo años persiguiendo la Serie Government y parece que cada vez son más complicadas, desconozco cuántas llegaron realmente a Europa pero no debieron ser muchas de las 300 que se fabricaron de cada modelo (LP, Explorer, Flying,SG) Tratar de traerlas de Usa es prácticamente impensable por los costes y el añadido de las CITES, hace falta un certificado y mucho tiempo, que además no te garantiza que la dejen pasar en aduanas, ya que he hablado con gente que tuvo bastantes problemas con ésto.
Incluye el certificado firmado por el CEO de Gibson firmado
Si no fuera por necesidad no me desharía de ésta joya, por lo que no respondo a cambios, ni a ofertas ridículas y por supuesto me reservo el derecho a retirarla en cualquier momento.
Lo único negociable sería quedarme con la pastilla del puente.
Cualquier consulta por privado.

The Government Series SG was first released in 2013 as a limited run to commemorate a 2011 incident where Gibson were suspected of having illegally sourced woods by the government. Although the criminal investigation was dropped due to a settlement, the evidence did not look good for Gibson: "In 2008, an employee of Gibson participated in a trip to Madagascar, sponsored by a non-profit organization. Participants on the trip, including the Gibson employee, were told that a law passed in 2006 in Madagascar banned the harvest of ebony and the export of any ebony products that were not in finished form. They were further told by trip organizers that instrument parts, such as fingerboard blanks, would be considered unfinished and therefore illegal to export under the 2006 law."[1] Ultimately, a settlement was reached where Gibson forfeited the illegal wood (Ebony from Madagascar) and paid a $300,000 fine. If you're wondering why any of this matters, the reason Brazilian Rosewood is currently threatened with extinction is because of over-harvesting like what was happening with Madagascar Ebony.
These models were built with necks and fretboards that were cleared and returned, and therefore some sport serial numbers dating to 2011. A second run was released in 2014 with a different finish. Series I was limited to 175 units and Series II was limited to 300 units. Both included a COA and hardshell case in Olive Green (Series I) or Black (Series II).
