With its legendary design and two distinctive horns, the Gibson SG Standard Ebony is a first-class blues and rock guitar with smooth handling and first-class sound. While the tried and tested set-neck construction with a mahogany neck and body provides the basis for a powerful sound, the "rounded" neck profile, which is not too thick, promises comfortable playability in all positions of the rosewood fingerboard. With a set of the popular Gibson 490 humbuckers, the SG Standard delivers powerful sounds with a broad mid-range spectrum and the ideal dose of bite on the guitar amplifier, whose preferred métier is blues and rock. Last but not least, the Gibson SG Standard is equipped with Grover Rotomatic tuners and the classic pair of Tune-O-Matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece.
The construction of the SG Standard guitar naturally follows the classic specifications and promises the ideal combination of powerful sound and easy handling. The handy mahogany body not only sits comfortably on the body, but also guarantees unhindered access to the high positions of the glued mahogany neck thanks to the characteristic double cutaways. In addition, the pleasantly grippy but not too strong "rounded" neck profile with 43 mm nut width lies comfortably in the hand, so that the classic playing techniques of blues and rock can be realised with ease.
With a Gibson 490R humbucker in the neck position and a Gibson 490T humbucker on the bridge, two modern classics of the Gibson pickup line-up take over the electric sound conversion of the SG Standard electric guitar. As a slightly modernised PAF interpretation, the classic Alnico II pickups deliver a warm sound with a full mid-range spectrum and lively dynamics, which is suitable for both sensitive clean passages and powerful overdrive riffs. The increased output of the bridge pickup also helps to elicit a juicy distortion from the guitar amplifier. To adjust the sound of the electric guitar, there are separate volume and tone controls for the humbuckers in addition to the 3-way pickup switch.
Last but not least, Gibson equips the SG Standard Ebony electric guitar with tradition-conscious and reliable add-on parts. An aluminium stopbar on the body holds the strings securely and guides them to the classic Nashville aluminium Tune-O-Matic bridge, whose generous adjustment options guarantee precise intonation and comfortable string action. Behind the Graph Tech nut, Grover Rotomatic tuners ensure precise tuning with unshakeable stability.
Gibson SG Standard EbonyI've been saving money as hard as possible so that I could afford a Gibson SG. I checked several musical instrument store on the web and Music Store was the only one to have it in stock and ready to deliver :)
I am very excited by the noise this guitar makes, I also bought a Marshall DSL40CR to play it through. Sounds both clean and very very dirty.
I am a happy guitarist!
This is a very good looking guitar with a really fat sound.
The tuning is good the neck easy to play and the frets feel good under the strings.
For the last 30 years I played guitars with locking system tremolo bar and at first it felt different playing the SG.
After a while it does feel amazing:
It is a powerful guitar with a very raw sound and very easy to play, up to the last fret.
One more thing:the SG is very lightweight .
Overall this is a guitar that should be made default for any serious guitar player.
Arrived well packaged from Germany on first inspection a a little bit of the red dye on the edge of the binding.Plays well and sounds like a classic sg should the gig bag is great quality so very happy with purchase overall.
