To celebrate, Gibson and Guitar Center are giving away several limited edition "Generation Swine" Gibson SGs in honor of the Crue's upcoming record of the same title. It would make sense to feature that guitar so you'd know what you're getting into, right?

Well, dude, it's an ebony Gibson SG Special. What? You thought that one of America's premier bare-bones, salt-of-the-earth rock bands would want their fans playing some fancy, blender splatoblaster thingie with a wigglestick whammy bar? Guess again!!!

The SG Special is the perfect choice because it delivers solid rock tone and is built to last; just like Motley Crue. All we've done to it is add a Motley Crue truss rod cover and a transparent red pickguard, complete with the "Generation Swine" logo.

"It's the consummate rock guitar," Gibson's Brian Vance said. "Motley Crue are the godfather of glam metal and Gibson is the godfather of modern electric guitar. The Crue, Nikki Sixx in particular, are immediately identifiable with Gibson products. It's part of their image."

Mr. Sixx agrees.

"I don't know if you guys know how much I dig Gibsons," Sixx said. "And it's very unusual that I get passionate about equipment."

So head down to your local Guitar Center, test drive your favorite Gibson, and register to win this rockin' ax.
