The SG Supra was part of the 2013 Gibson USA lineup, and was discontinued the following year. It is similar to an SG Supreme, but uses the SG Standard body and neck design (as did the SG Select). Unlike the Supreme, however, it featured a solid figured maple body all the way through, with no mahogany back. Like the 2013 SG Deluxe, it featured a "Tog-Pot" switch that controls the volume of the middle pickup by twisting the switch tip.
