Vintage SG Style, with Powerful Rock Tones
Way back in 1961, the original Gibson SG was initially released as a "new and improved" Les Paul replacement. Unfortunately, Les wasn't impressed, and the guitar was instead released under the Solid Guitar (SG) moniker.
The Gibson SG was an almost-immediate huge hit, and continues to be so today - more than five decades later!
Gig Ready From The Go
Unlike the famous Les Paul guitars, the Gibson SG features a much slimmer, more lightweight body. In addition to this, the long tenon neck join allows easier access to the guitar's upper frets.
The end result is a hard-rocking guitar that lends itself well to heavy riffing and searing lead lines with equal vigour. Also, thanks to the much slimmer and lighter body, the Gibson SG Standard 61 offers an incredibly comfortable playing experience, allowing you to perform on stage and in the studio for hours on end.
Vintage-Voiced Pickups
Sitting in the neck and bridge positions, and ready to deliver those vintage SG tones, you'll find a set of 60s BurstBucker humbuckers.
These pickups are specially designed to produce a classic, thick humbucker voice, but with extra power and top end.
Whether you want to bust out some hard-rocking riffs and power chords, or a dynamic solo, these pickups will provide the juice you need.
Sideways Vibrola
In place of a more traditional stop-tail piece, this guitar comes equipped with a classic Sideways Vibrola. This unique vibrato design was first seen on the early 60s SG models, and offers a unique take on the "whammy" effect.
