Gibson SG Standard '61 Vintage Cherry

Gibson SG Standard '61 Vintage Cherry - Iconic classic of the 60s with slim taper neck and Burstbucker 61 humbucker

The Gibson SG Standard '61 Vintage Cherry is a reissue of one of the most iconic designs in music history, which laid the foundation for one of the most popular solidbody models in music history in the early 1960s. Its lightweight mahogany body with contoured cutaways ensures great handling and playing comfort, while the slim mahogany slim taper neck and rosewood fingerboard combine a traditional feel with typical SG playability. Classic vintage details such as the 5-ply teardrop pickguard, vintage deluxe tuners with keystone buttons and an ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge round off the authentic appearance. Responsible for the sound are the tried-and-tested Burstbucker 61R (neck) and 61T (bridge), which deliver the unmistakable Gibson punch with rolling highs and a strong midrange, which can be ideal for everything from Classic rock, Blues rock or even harder realms. The features are rounded off by high-quality audio taper pots and orange drop capacitors as well as a sturdy aluminium stoptail. The SG Standard '61 in the classic Vintage Cherry finish is therefore a modern interpretation of a timeless classic that makes no compromises in terms of sound or playability.
