Gibson SG Deluxe
Aftermarket Price History
Used-market sales only. Brand New listings excluded.
The SG Deluxe sits in the branch where Gibson gave the SG a little more decoration and a little more distinction without completely changing the formula. It tends to appeal to buyers who want something less ordinary than a Standard but less ceremonial than a Custom. The used market rewards examples that still make a clean, coherent case for why this SG is a Deluxe and not just a slightly odd SG.
Individual Listings (Used Market)
Used-condition sales and current used listings. Brand New listings excluded.
Market Report
Used examples typically trade between $1,825 and $2,125; anything under $1,800 is worth a close look. Price variance is high — individual sales can move the market, so check recent comps before committing.
This is a slow-moving market at ~4/month. Sellers may wait longer for the right buyer; don't expect a quick flip.
The market isn't particularly condition-sensitive (~11% spread). A player-grade example trades close to a clean one.
