Asierica Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Hi guys, first of all greetings to all, I bought a second-hand gibson sg voodoo and my doubt is if it is original since it brings a skull cross carved on the body that I have not seen in any other model, and looking on the internet I have only I found an old ad that appears that drawing, I have written to Gibson USA but he has not answered me and by the serial number it says that it was built in Nashville on July 24, 2002, I would like if someone has any information that can help me The guitar itself sounds incredible and that's why I doubt it's fake but I don't see any similar model, thanks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt. Pepper Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Take the control cover off and see if it has Gibson pots and look under the truss rod cover to see if the nut for it looks right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdgm Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 (edited) Looking at Images on Google - can't see one with the carving so probably added later or some sort of one-off. There seem to be letters on the image below your photo, but too small to make out.  A band logo perhaps? Guitar looks 100% real. https://www.google.com/search?q=Gibson+SG+voodoo&client=firefox-b-d&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiewP27icLuAhXFoFwKHbhKC3oQ_AUoAnoECCYQBA&biw=1920&bih=1086 Edited January 29, 2021 by jdgm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asierica Posted January 30, 2021 Author Share Posted January 30, 2021 Thank you, I have spoken with the previous owner and he says that I bought it new in 2004 in a store in Barcelona and that it was coming but in Gibson Europe they do not know anything, I will continue investigating just in case because it does surprise me that it is the same figure of the ad that I have put in the post that I have taken from a website in the USA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EscapedTexan Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Whatever it is, it looks really cool. Hope it sounds nasty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
01GT eibach Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Here is another one (2002) with the carving. I believe that the carving is OEM and is rare. This should be a question for Gibson, I think. That case is awesome.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tx-ogre Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 That’s a sweet looking SG Voodoo.  Congrats.  I liked the Voodoo series when they came out, but already had two Gibson SGs.  But I sure wish I’d picked up a Voodoo V back then.
